Hi folks, Trying to replace coolant ECT sensor but can't locate it! Haynes says it's under intake air manifold but can't see it after removal. Can you please post a picture showing where it is of even a few steps in order of pieces I need to remove to get at it? Images I've spruced from online are attached...though not very helpful. Much obliged. A

Thanks fridge, I thought it was the cam sensor as with the older one when cooled it in freezer it worked fine; relaxed it and no joy. Will diagnostics pick up the crank shaft sensor fault? The low pressure pump may also be the problem, may be more prudent to replace first...both cost around the same!

Need to measure fuel pressure, will Delphi provide fuel line pressure? E.g. Delphi DS150E car& truck diagnostic tools interface auto programmer code-reader 2014 http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00LKN46TC/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_8295tb04J8CNP

Thanks guys, I'm going to run a diag on it to make sure it's the fuel pressure leak problem, anybody know if the Delphi PC kit is able to read fuel pressure on the freelander? Noted today by pouring cold water over the temperature sensor it started, so may well be a lazy sensor either?

Can someone please advise on the most likely problem with my TD 4 BMW engine: starts fine once cold but after engine heats up and after a small drive, the engine cranks over for up to a minute before starting. Becoming a nuisance if not dangerous situation given I could be stranded! I've followed a few threads on similar symptoms but no joy...here's what I've done so far: 1. Replaced fuel filter 2. Replaced air filter in engine air take 3. Cleaned gunk out of ERG valve 4. Replaced CAM shaft position sensor 5. Ran a basic diagnostics, air flow pressure is 100kPa idle 140 driving. No fuel pressure reading available on my diagnostic unit (CReader IV) 6. Removed MAF sensor and emission warning light comes on (along with allot of white smoke), associated code shows on CReader; no change in slow start. Reconnect MAF sensor, code fault stops, smoke stops, still slow start. 7. Looked at high pressure fuel sensor , not green or corroded, looks fine. 8. Went to dealer today, said if could be fuel pump...quoted it needing 140kPa to start engine and 400 at high revs, since I can't measure fuel pressure he quoted me 80 quid to run his diagnostics equipment on it and he'll 'write down' the values! He said the pump may be gone as it had enough pressure to start cold for first time but once running it looses power...not sure bout that since the car runs FINE once started after a warm slow constant crank over rub batter down start. 9. I poured cold water over cam shaft sensor area of engine when hot and it started quick. 10. I've run out of options...is it the pump, or something with the sensors? Cheers folks, appreciate any insights. Anthony
