Wondered if anyone could comment on the following
a good friend of mine has a Freelander TD4 51 plate and has been having starting problems. I advised her to take it to one of the several Landrover specialist near to us, she decided to take it to a garage she had used before who told her that they have all the diagnostics for Landrovers and could tell her exactly what the problem was. They had the car for three days and have billed her nearly £600.00 for the fix, their explanation being that the rear fuel pump had gone and that had caused the front fuel pump to take all the strain causing that one to fail as well , so two new pumps and its fixed.
I think that they have just replaced one pump and that did not do the job so they replaced the other as well for good measure, can anyone confirm that if the rear pump (under the wheel arch) failed then the front pump (inside the engine bay near the filter) would not be able to fuel the engine on its own. I cannot see that the secondary pump could pull fuel through a failed primary pump
thanks in advance
