Turns out it was a new front wheel bearing that was needed. Cost a few quid but it's a quiet drive again so all is good.

Funny you say that coz it was kwik fit that done my tyres

Manual. I had a 2003 td4 manual before this one that needed a front driveshaft replaced but the vibration was 100 times worse than the new one. This time the vibration feels like a unbalanced wheel or something but the wheels are fine.

Bought myself a freelander 2 at Christmas. It has a few miles on it so I sent it in for a full service. After the service I felt a vibrating when driving. Thought it might be tracking or balance so got that done with 4 new tyres on and still the vibrating is there. Guy in the tyre place said it...

I wouldn't know mate I'll ask the mechanic cheers tho

So in between arguments the general thoughts are worn seal on pump then? Would it be better to replace the in tank fuel pump as the one at rear wheel was done about a year ago ? Thanks for the advice btw

Tried a jumpstart booster on it and it just turned over without starting

I'm not a fan of easy start but it was only only way to get it to the garage. I'll try towing it. The leak off hose was changed recently

One of the t pieces had cracked but that's been changed now and new seals put on. So that should have solved that

doesnt matter how long it turns over it just won't start with out the spray. When it first started to not start if u know what I mean. It would start after a few turns then after driving for about 45 mins I would park it turn off engine the try to start after about 10 mins then it wouldn't start...

My td4 2003 is not starting without using easy start spray. It's been in the garage for 2 weeks now. Mechanic says the fuel is returning back to the tank after it starts. He says the pumps are working and he's changed seals of return hose from injectors. But still won't start without easy start...

Thanks I'll do that

hi all. I have a td4 2003. Had a bit of trouble recently with starting. It's in the garage now but mechanic says it starts with easystart but then the fuel is getting drawn back into the tank when u turn the engine off again and it struggles to start again. Fuel pumps seem ok. New seals put on...
