    So we found a great garage to look over the LR ...chap did loads of tests of fuel pump , printing pump, fuel lines, filters , battery ...he thought he'd cracked the prob, but she's back to reluctant firing again, so his diagnosis and that of the main dealer is injectors ...trouble is , he says...

    Thank you so much , I'll look them up ....I've been up towards Tring so I kinda know the road, which is reassuring ... .....it ain't like Cornwall here that's for sure ...too many effing cars everywhere ...not like my run out to the Lizard where there's three cars and a John Deere lol :D

    Ooh I'll look them up. Really want to get her sorted, only driven her once since I've been here, as I'm too worried about getting stuck somewhere ( especially if Ian is abroad) so she's holed up on the camp ...st least being in the multi- storey , my water ingress issues are on hold lol :D:D I's...

    Hi Brian ...I'm pretty sure that the garage tested the fuel pressure and it was ok ...in my mind it is making a hell of a lot more noise than it should be ( and what I'm used to hearing from it) . There's no way on this earth I'm going to be able to sort it myself so I'll just have to try and...

    It did help in theory ....I know everything can be fixed ...its just getting the right diagnosis ...the main dealer did mention injector replacement etc ...but as the fuel pump is so noisy ( but is delivering fuel) I don't really want to go off on some random direction when really they can't say...

    OMG the Land Rover toolbox is addictive :D Going to need to find a really knowledgable landy man/ garage in Herts ...without sounding offensive , I think that the main dealer is only interested in new vehicles and if there's no codes coming up then I need to find a TD5 man who's seen it all...

    Hello all who walk this hallowed turf :D Any ideas on TD5 starting probs. Turn the key ...listen to the fuel pump ( whines like a half dead dog!) Then engine turns ...and turns ...and turns ..then eventually fires ..but dies ... So I turn it again ...and it eventually splutters into life. Once...

    Looks like Hubs might be working at an HQ there, between Watford and Harrow, place called Northwood. Nothing confirmed yet but he's been sort of head hunted so I guess it's on the cards.
