dooroy Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Last Nov I changed the in tank fuel pump in my bro - in - laws Td4 . I also replaced the engine compartment pump and filter around the same time . In January the tank pump failed again and I got a replacement under warranty - from the supplier in England . Last Wed after about 12K mls the tank pump failed again . Has anyone come across this in other Td4's - Freelander will probably be parked up for a while waiting for replacement . As it has to come from Eng it can be a long drawn out process . Is there an ongoing problem with these pumps - I got one from England in the first place as the local dlr wanted something like €488 for one one .

Llanigraham Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Did you buy the LR part, or a pattern one? There have been problems witgh some of the cheap ones, I hear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dooroy Posted October 2, 2009 Author Share Posted October 2, 2009 It was a pattern part - not the genuine LR item . Have often used pattern parts in the past with no problems - these pumps though seem to be a problem . I fitted a pattern in tank pump to my own Td5 Discovery a few months back - works fine but gets noisy if fuel level allowed below about a quarter . Hope it lasts longer than the Freelander one . Thanks for reply - will see how I get on re warranty . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
