shouldn't need heater plugs in this weather! Could be the LP fuel pump in rear OS wheel arch....

Welcome too

as skynet said, shouldn't need glow plugs this weather. even in the depths of winter, there is only the briefest of flashes to show they come on.

as well as lp fuel pump, would also be looking at injectors (carry out a leak back test)

good luck

Hi im new to the site, have recently had the pleasure of my first landy being a freelander 03 td4, have had trouble on three occassions where she took a few attempts and sum throttle to start, owned her just short of a month, shes hunting abit and sounds like a detenation sound on throttle with heavy black smoke. Done the bmw pcv, fuel, oil and air filters to no effect. Cleaned out egr and intake manifold as from reading posts on landyzone. I work at vauxhall on the spanners and land rover is across the road from us so iv been speaking with the techs, they said low pressure fuel pump common so I give her a new one still to no effect. Previous owner done the fuel pressure regulator and wiring overlay in 2010 as well as 4 bosch injectors changed 07/2013 13000 mile ago.

Whats the chances of injectors going down again and what do you achieve from doing a leak back check?

This is also my first post and diesel vehicle, I can ask the lads tommorrow at work but wanted to get involved on here so as we can learn from each other.

Cheers

Wolf
