Thanks I got RAVE working but just can't find anything useful to answer my specific problem other than a bit on repair times relating to fuel pumps and I'm not sure what I'm looking at. I planned to contact a local Landy specialist and ask them on Monday but I'm not overly hopeful. Thanks for...

I've been chasing dead links all afternoon and found nothing useful related to my fuel pump. I've a couple more links to chase up but i think they iso's? Which means I need pc? My laptop is ancient and not sure if it will cope...

I'm on my own I'm afraid, litigant in person, but thanks I'll try RAVE see if I can find anything useful. It might help identify the pump but doubt it will say 'fits both manuals & autos with addition of kickdown bracket which takes 20 mins not 8 hours' :D Edit: downloading and viewing RAVE...

Thanks, would hope i wouldn't need someone to attend court. I'd hope a simple letter confirming what i already know is in my engine bay would be enough to expose the lie? Probably wouldn't be allowed expert witness at this late stage anyway, and no the garage won't agree to anything. I hope my...

Thank you that sounds like what i need, except I couldn't make any sense of allbrit.de (even in English) and I don't know what RAVE is :oops: sorry Will they show that my pump fits a 300tdi and either transmission, provided there's a kick down bracket in case of the automatic? The other...

Thanks folks The 8 hour pump swap was just a rectification attempt that failed.! The real fleecing was being charged £920 for the engine swap initially. How can I prove the pump currently fitted is an ERR 4046 and requires only kickdown brackets to fit an auto? I've taken pictures for court but...

Sorry Chris if page 2 pics are bad or poorly oriented. See my last post, both pumps in engine bay, one fitted, one resting on top. Identical bosch pumps as far as i can tell, they don't look different to me at all

Is the model number somewhere on the pump body? ... Edit, answered my own question. Yes it's stamped on pump body ERR 4046 Also thanks Chris but neither of my pumps is fly by wire/edc. Both are identical, mechanical pumps with the same number. I don't know why, but they are. The only...

Evening folks! I finally got a court date in my case against the repairing/ruining garage. Just going through their defence... They've gone from claiming i supplied a manual engine instead of the 'automatic type' to claiming i have a special automatic fuel pump! They previously admitted...

Quick update: In the case against the seller of the vehicle (sold as very good working order, but arrived with many problems including broken engine) I've been successful! They've been ordered to pay compensation. Now it's a case of actually getting that money back... I'll let everyone know...

D1 o_O Oh... Is that a D2 tank diagram? Sorry if it is :oops:

Thanks brian47, sorry if I made it sound like I thought there's no breather issue. I accept there may be breather issues. When I had a quick look the thin vent pipe was a little bit caked in dry mud. I cleared it as best i could. By vent pipe I mean 23 in the following pic though mine (nor...

My truck is a pig to fuel up, anything more than a dribble and it causes the pump to shut off as if tank is full. I've had to resort to filling jerry cans and filing at home, it's quicker :oops: It's been suggested to me that it could be a breather issue (i get no back pressure or 'hiss' when...

Thanks for the replies folks. I've ordered plugs that I'll keep in glove box in case I have to go wading ;) The exhaust leak huffs badly under throttle, the whole engine bay near it (washer bottle, air box, jack areas). Everything is as black as the filter. I don't think its helped that's for...

I will check the intakes and intercooler, better safe than sorry. But I've not done any wading, just wet roads. Briefly on water etc getting in where it shouldn't, am I supposed to have a plug in the flywheel housing during normal operation? My manual suggests so

Thanks folks I think the air box etc is all standard, though not sure what the 'trumpet' is. My wheel arch lining is intact but I'll investigate that further. The intake isn't sealed to the wing though, is it meant to be? Also noticed that the exhaust wasn't sealed properly so I'm belching...

My mk1 paj never did this but the airbox is other side. The seller of filters is sending me two coopers ones which are better than the cheap ones i originally ordered, so that'd good news. I can afford new tights for the Mrs now :D

Thanks folks, I didn't know if i could drive and my pregnant labrador also has to go to the vet, as well as dads rural taxi. Ok maybe not LZIR sorry, but I I needed a solution (and I'm a noob) . Personally I feel Rescued so many thanks. I'm thinking I'll put the 'wrong' filter in to catch...

It's sooty isn't it? The previous filter did the same but I'd had it in longer, then it collapsed after playing on green lanes I'd put it down to that, but I haven't been anywhere dirty this last month. One thing I found today is the pipe from the wing to airbox (In Pipe) isn't sealed to...

Hello folks , I was hoping to get some advice. My air filter collapsed and disintegrated this morning, making the disco (d1 1995, auto 300tdi) run badly. It was a mess when I removed it and less than a month old. Worse still the spare I had in unopened service kit is incorrect size! (in...
