Yeah it should really just be plug and play. If it started okay with the old pump, though it was leaking then the problem has to be down to either the recon pump being faulty, or the fuel system hasn't had the chance to purge itself of air. Have you tried leaving the ignition on for a few...

What was the reason for replacing the old pump? Leaking seals? There is no timing adjustment for the fuel pump on a TD4, all it does is create an extremely high pressure in the rail and then the ECU determines the injector timing. Did you use the correct tool to hold the injector pump sprocket...

Is it a TD4 or L series Diesel engine? If it's the TD4 - have you ensured everything was reconnected once the pump was changed - IE the multiplug on the back of the pump? If everything is connected, make sure you leave the ignition on for a couple of minutes before starting to allow the low...

Unfortunately you are correct, you cannot program that remote you have purchased to your vehicle by yourself. The correct diagnostics machine would be required. An alternative to soldering it etc yourself if you're not feeling confident is to have a look on somewhere like eBay, there are many...

Funnily enough I have the exact same thing as you, only noticed it today as I was testing my wiper motor with the ignition on - the hissing stops as soon as the low pressure pump does. I did notice my high pressure pump (near where the hissing was coming from) looked suspiciously damp - here's...

I recently did a clutch on my TD4, fitted LuK dual mass flywheel, clutch and concentric release bearing. Had no problems and works like a charm. LuK is what is fitted to the TD4 by the manufacturer, so that's what I went with. I've also fitted LuK to more TD4 freelanders at work with no issues...

My mistake, I should look at the picture closely before commenting next time. The small hole I was mistaking it for is right at the bottom of the housing. It does appear the hole you're worried about is just for a plastic clip as everyone else has said, and is absolutely nothing to worry about.

I believe this hole is a drain hole for any water that gets into the air filter housing. It should be clear and unblocked.

Somehing like this help at all?

Completely agree with Pagid, use them all the time at my work and never had any issues. Absolutely spot on.

The presence of a Catalytic Converter and/or a DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) is indeed now a requirement for an MOT. So yes, if the vehicle has a clearly modified straight through pipe in place of a Cat/DPF it will fail. However, if the existing Cat/DPF has signs of tampering, ie cut open and...

Could be one of your injectors is on its way out - one of mine had excessive leakback which caused difficult starting after standing - but otherwise started perfectly during the day. I'd recommend getting the injectors checked out, leak off tested and scoped for at the very least peace of mind.

Yeah that just occured to me when I reread this thread this morning. :p

Engine specifics would really help here. Petrol or diesel for a start?

I upgraded to a Polybush after fitting a brand new genuine lower tie bar on my Freelander - the rubber just still seemed far to soft and you could feel the engine jumping about if you weren't extremely gentle on the drive take-up. I bought the orange 56mm one that is listed on eBay previously...

Looks brilliant, good work!

You can't really measure the voltage output of an airflow meter accurately with a multi-meter. What you really need is an oscilloscope to check for any excess noise or voltage spikes, and to graph the output to get a better picture. Chances are your multi-meter is just not fast enough to be...

I have the exact same issue on my TD4, but same as you I can only seem to find solutions for the PG1 box. If you manage to find a solution for yours could you please let me know as I would be most interested!

Great post! I wanted to facelift the rear of mine as well, but couldn't figure out all the bits that were required so settled just to upgrade the tailgate trim by slightly modifying it. :) Well done for doing such a great job on facelifting it though - looks great! :D

And in regards of why it has turned on, it could be just a coincidence that when you plugged in your device a fault just happened to occur at the same time with the SRS system. Or perhaps you had to move your front seats back more than usual to get access to the diagnostic port, and the seat...
