Hi
I have the strangest issue, which seems to be a combination of more issues I have found in the forum, so it's almost impossible to search for. Here goes .. Starting my Freelander TD4 ('04) with a cold engine works like a charm, but when rev'ing it, it stalls at 2500 RPM's (engine malfunction is lid). Engine is running smoothly though, but can't get above the 2500 RPM.
I take it for a short spin (or a longer) and then turn it off. Moments after or up to more than an hour later I try restarting it, but the engine malfunction is lid, and the fuel pump is silent .. engine won't start. Several hours later I can start the engine again.
I've been investigating if this could be the camshaft sensor as it sounded like the exact issue when the car is warm, but I understand that this doesn't affect driving, only start, so the max 2500 RPM's shouldn't be the result of a faulty sensor.
Then I thought fuel pump, but why does it work if the engine has been of for a few hours.
Last idea is the fuel filter, but I'm at a loss here, so advises would be fantastic. (Hope to get it on the road again soon, as I really love the car). Been driving 100.000 km not having to change a single thing other than brakes and the rear muffler)
Kind regards
Christian
