    Hi Raywin, Thank you for your reply and the links. Frightening! The car has 67k km (41k easy miles). Never been off road so it would be desperately disappointing if it was a diff and even a wheel bearing shouldn't go at such a low distance. Before I retired I was a Civil Servant and served in...

    Hi, I did the oil and filter change first. Yes, it was difficult to get to the filter. What on earth made LR think that was a good position? Anyway, I bought the appropriate spanner so that it made it as easy as it could be. So that is all the filters changed, the oil and the brake fluid changed...

    Hi Raywin, Thank you for replying with the detail. Hippo also directed me to the video (part 2) of how to bleed the system, so armed with this and your comments, the car is working again, (after a sleepless night!) It is great to know that people like you and Lord Hippo take the time to reply...

    Hi Hippo, Well, success! I followed the video and carried all of the instructions, including bleeding at the rail and it eventually started. Phew! Thank you for your detailed help and directions.

    Hi Yes, that is one that I watched. No mention of any priming. It took me about the same time to change the filter and try starting the car. The other was not in english but the same starting sequence and no priming. If only! They both gave me the confidence to do the job. Are there any that...

    Hippo and Raywin, thank you very much for your advice. Is that sucking the fuel through to the opposite side of the arrow on the filter? or further. If so what needs to be disconnected to attach the vacuum pump to, please? I had watched 2 Youtube videos on changing this and it was a simple...

    Hi, To be honest I dont actually have a Freelander2 but a friend of mine does. I'm servicing it for her and have changed the oil and filter this afternoon. I moved on to the air and fuel filter next. Its a 2010 Diesel SD4 2179cc (S4F12F D5H4). After photographing the old filter before removal...
