cheers mate.

Ermmm... i have heard of this before, and that tis best to change the unit and not the filter ? you say its on top of the engine ? does the rocker cover (if thats what there called now ?) have to come off ? any advice on doing the job willo ? what problems does it cause ? mines done 93k...

Yeah i did it side on if you like not from underneath remover the inner wheel arch cover and it pretty straight forward to see how it comes off (apart from rotten rusty 10mm bolts that hold the whole unit on. once you take the whole thing off you can see the fuel filter and the pump and a...

Hi first of all thanks to all the members that offered advice on my problem !:) well it got worse and started to not fire when warm also and after pricing up various options on how to tackle the problem ? you may remember it turned over fine but would take quite a while to fire into life...

cheers Clutchdust ! you sound like you know your stuff ! not got round to doing anything to it as yet , so it will be my fault when it won't start at all ! but i have RAC cover. i've found by pressing the accelerator pedal to the floor before i turn the key to start it does fire quicker...

Thanks , it may be me ? but last couple of mornings i have turn the key let the light go off waited 5-10 seconds switched it off done it again, 5-10 seconds then tried to fire the engine and it did take a little while but seems to start quicker than before ? so wonder if i have a glow plug...

Hi all, i have done a quick forum search to no avail ? and before i entrust a garage ! i thought i would ask here first in case its a common problem or an easy fix ? I have a 2003 TD4 its ran great and been fully serviced in March, but over the last few weeks it has taken longer to start...

yeah i have its great on a sandwhich !

Hi all, I have had quite a few PM's about this and thought i would post pic's of the result of the Freelander detail, i have now sold this one after 4 weeks and real going over and £1200 profit which i spent on a 2003 silver kalahri ltd edtion, with 17in wheels and alcantra/leather seats...

nar no smoke ! so i should look for an air leak ? where would you suggest looking ?

Hi, yes i'm saying the starter turns off the key but it does not fire from cold straight away. it will start just that instead of a second off the key it may be 3-4 seconds, its noticable and my wife has come home also and told me so its not right ? The fuel filter has been changed and has...

Hi All ! this is my second TD4 and the 2001 used to fire up as normal, but my 2003 when cold seems to not want to start straight away. i.e it does not struggle to start as in lazy or battery low etc.. it turns over at the correct speed just does not seem to "catch" as quickly as the 2001...

Yeah i'll pop in to LR and BM and find out first before i part with "cash" Oil and oil filter done ! got the pollen filter/air/and Fuel filter today from car shop Mahle filters so good ! so will fit them the weekend. as for the Bm320d turbos going no one ever really wants to know why ? as...

Tesco's ermmm! thats a good deal ! its the B4 that matters as this meets or exceeds the direct inj diesel engine spec. sounds like you know your oil ! as most people would go and buy full syn B4 and pay through the nose for well "marketing" who refines Tesco's oil ? you can bet its a big well...

Ok thanks. if it were 19.25 + vat as part of sevice it would have been just the filter and not the valve ? as the filter kit is £20+ vat from LR ? i've seen second hand complete valve and filter for £35 ! So hence why LR want £50 for the whole thing, so if charged £19 then its just the...

I apoligise my use of term was well strong :( but i'm with you on the info, high power turbo like RS and evo's etc.. that reply very heavy on turbo power rather than grunt from the engine reach red hot temps ! and good oil and warm down is needed, but on low psi turbo's like on diesel cars do...

Dick head ! the "guide" was there technical manager as they were pitching for our business so it was there top guy ! not there YTS ! who would you trust to secure a million pound contract ? the low paid YTS ? i'm not saying all oil is the same but if it meets a spec than its good stuff and no...

It works tho ! people fuss over what oil to use, my mate runs a garage and they put the same oil in petrol and diesel engines as it meets all the specs for both and its a 10/40 its also B4 top spec Diesel oil but also good spec car petrol oil. As long as you don't go to thick like 20/50 most...

Thanks guys ! i'm on it !
