Thinking about it - I may just get a new regulator and fit it. If I replace the O rings and refit to a state to be able to fire it up, then find out it needs the regulator, I’ll kick myself. Hard.
Will replace the O rings - just heard the Pscan should be here for weekend, so may help understand more then.
Any idea on the long-reach socket size for the rail sensor (battery end)? Connection looks fine, but may well replace the sensor… when...
I gave him a spare regulator and it fixed
Same problem as you parked up would not start next day he’s tried cam crank sensor
Then it was suggested about the regulator I had a spare and it’s now running 100%
Same problem on one this week second hand regulator fixed it 👌
Try easy start if like the other one this week it starts and runs but knock it off and no start it’s probably the regulator
Going by what I see on here, these non start issues are generally fuel, or electrics relating to fuel.
The regulator O rings, fuel rail sensor, lift pump being the primary ones.
It would be interesting if easy start would fire the engine up...
You can still make the reg out 🤨
The £300 shower covers are a gimmick tbh
I have had 3 , I still have one “ mint in original packaging never opened “
One i sold never tried and the other sold but did try it and the time it takes you to put on...
Ya spare one
Fixed it
He’s a lad with a young family so money a bit tight I would guess
He was over the moon when it started 😁
We have all been there 😂 the relief out ways the anger in the end
99% of people that could own a defender
Would pick that over a Freelander ( including me )
But the hassle that is owning a defender would probably bit you on the arse
Pretty quickly

Second lot I have had in 6 years
They are quite and handles ok with them
in the dry
Off road and wet I am not to convinced with them but in the wet I adjust my speed tbh
A 04 TD4 will start and then run normal after
A bit of easy start but as soon as it’s knocked off will not start without it ?
Crank and cam sensor’s been changed no codes no lights on dash
Anyone help ?
Not sure this will apply to you but on a Freelander I was putting pads in I found out why they did not fit was because it had one old calliper ( for the solid disc) not enough room for the pads
Following on from escapades with rear door not opening and window not going down when wanting to get to tools to put a nice new steering wheel on, did a few maintenance and needed jobs.
Changed the diff oil which had some water in (assuming form...
I know this is a weird one but do you have the factory side steps?
I was hearing knocking for ages and it was driving me crazy, replaced all the usual culprits and still knocking! Turns out it was the driver side steps rattling, removed both...
They are a nightmare to isolate especially if the steering is ok not squeaking
this is my own experience with the vans we run but i was in the same situation as you and changed them in desperation if i am honest but fixed the thudding
The ARB...
So I've managed to source a replacement which will be arriving tomorrow. I will need to inspect it upon arrival but if it's okay I will be getting it shot blasted, and depending on the price I may get it thermal metal sprayed. There are a couple...
I delivered a 4m bamboo bundle last week
The old lad had been waiting for a week 🙄 I didn’t have the heart to return them so i put them on the roof of the van with a strap though both side doors his face was priceless he thought 4m was 4ft so he...
PiM 😩they are my favourite online store at the minute don’t say they are useless!
They refunded me no problem on a 6m old faulty driveshaft on my sons Honda type R
Sent the return post label and refunded me the day they got it
Put the bottom guard on with stainless bolts and screws
Cleaned the fuel rail sensor had a fiddle with the knocking exhaust 😩
( bid thanks to Andy for the sump guard)
I have noticed that original equipment, if it lasts then it lasts well. Our 2000 model has all original bushes and ball joints. 60k miles but 24 years old. New 'rubber' whatever it is made off seems to disintegrate before you've tightened the...
