  1. I am in the process of replacing mine. Have purchased from the land rover centre in LiverpoolUKM It is being sent out by courier to Malawi. A bit pricey this way but need to get back on the road. For fairness sake, you seem to be able to get this spare quite easily whether earlier or late model type and most suppliers ha ve it. As for performance, I didn't notice any difference at low revs as mine was failing but did feel rough and gutless above 3000 rpm.
  2. Thanks for reply, definitely the fuel pump, if you turn on the ignition and then switch off you can get the pump to switch off.
  3. I have a 2003 disco TD5. The fuel pump has started to spontaneously activate during the night. It has happened on several occasions and only occurs at night - I am assuming this may be to do with the ambient temperature falling. I am in Malawi with no access to engine diagnostics (why have an ecu controlled land rover in this part of Africa i here you say, and i ask myself the same questuion). I therefore have the choice of sendiing the ECU off for checking and having the car off the road for 3-4 weeks (the car is essential for getting around so will need to hire one at considerable expense) or making time to drive down to South Africa (not a short drive). At present I am just pulling the inertia switch fuse at night, but this means i can't secure the car. Is there anything else i could look at before sending off the ecu, i wondered about the fuel temperature sender? It looks OK, can i check this with a multimeter. Any other experiences or thoughts gratefully received.
