Hi Max.
Did you prime the fuel filter properly, also is your car battery fully charged these FL2 are a bit funny about a battery not being fully charged, does it have a DPF what year is the FL 2

Hi Arctic2
Thanks for your response.
Yes fuel filter was correctly primed, as far as I know the battery was fully charged.
the FL2 is a 2011 HSE TD4 2.2 diesel and yes it does have a DPF, after completing the service it ran fine.
the next day while out in it, we where stuck in a traffic jam for about 1/2 an hour, it seemed to start after that.
Been out in it today and all seems to be ok, just concerned about it failing if we go any where in it.
Thanks again TK MAX

Was a genuine filter used? There are known issues with aftermarket fuel filters, which seem to be missing the thermostatic valve inside, which sends hot fuel to the engine, causing the ECM to go into safety mode.
Only use genuine LR filters, or OE filters with the word Perflux on the top.

Hi Nodge68
Thanks for your input, the filter I used was a Britpart filter, I will get a get a new LR filter and give that a go.
It was very hot the day it started to play up so that does sound like a possibility. I did check the fuel temp and it did go up very quickly.
Thanks Again
