negativepitch Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 my wife has just come back from shopping, the engine warning light, the one with the ! in it, my wife said it also lost power when she changed to third, and now it wont start, its trying to turn over. I know its a stab in the dark...any ideas ? I just forked out for a new clutch,and fly wheel, then had an oil leak on one of the boots...now this...all in a matter of three weeks. I can see this going early at this rate..... its had a full health check from landrover when I had the clutch done. also, this only started just after my wife had filled the tank...yes it was diesel she put in.

Dorsetfreelander Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 We need a bit more than this to go on, is it petrol or diesel, have you looked under the bonnet ? etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
negativepitch Posted April 10, 2010 Author Share Posted April 10, 2010 sorry...its a td4 I opened the bonnet and then closed it again as I might as well be looking at a blank page..cause thats all it means to me I know that doesnt help much, think I will let it cool down, the re-try just to start it tomorow, if it starts then Ill switch it off till monday and see if I can get it into my local landrover ??? edit to this... the light is the engine malfunction light the one with the ! inside it...not just a ! symbol...which would be the handbrake...even I know that much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Dads failed in exactly the same way. Turned out to be the fuel pump, I believe its located in the OS rear wheelarch Rich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
