Hiya
I've got a 52 rangy L322 diesel
It seem to have a problem starting when hot,it started a few months ago car starts first time every time when cold but I noticedit was taking longer to start when hot an sometimes I'd have to turn it of and crank it again and it would start so bein a women I left it and didn't think anything about anyway few months down the line i went out came back to the car after being sat for 20mins An the car wouldn't start at all no matter how many times it tried AA man came out couldn't find any codes sprayed it with easy start car came alive never had a problem with it then 3days ago it started again starts first time in the morning when cold but as soon as it's been run it then won't start for at least 45 mins sometimes longer or not at all unless easy start is used any ideas as to what it could be any information would be greatly appreciated thanks
 
First thing to say is don't use easy start, it will kill your engine. They don't call it dope for nothing!
 
It's been used twice only because I was stuck somewhere and I needed to get the car back home! someone has suggested that it might have one or more injectors down can any garage check this or will it have to be a proper Land Rover place
 
Sounds like an injector or 2 ,.You have to do a leak back test ,the injectors let to much diesel back to the tank when they get tired or fail ,I put small bottles on the leak off pipes,, the one or two that fills the fastest is the problem ..i think injectors on yours need coded if replaced but not 100% on that....;)
 
Try and find a R/R Indy unless you have loads of money for the Main Stealers.
