Did you ever get a very high estimate from your service shop? Do you think you can trust them?
Replacing the high pressure fuel pump on this LR3 was estimated to be a 4000€ repair with body off.
We show you how we got it fixed for 40€ and some good luck.
Enjoy the video.

There is a drain fitting on the filter, put a pipe on it and slacken it to drain filter, did it make a mess when you took the filter off?

I love my 2010 discovery 4 2.7 tdv6 mostly because of your fantastic videos. I love the way you explained the correlation of the low pressure fuel system to the high pressure system. That explains the sensor thinking the rail pressure is too high because of the difference between the two systems.

@johnbrookes9830 3 года назад

Well done. I had the same issue with a Nissan. Various "experts" told me that all sorts of parts needed replacing. A new fuel filter fixed it, like you I checked the service history and noted it had never been changed.

@renaulttraficconversion 3 года назад

I had the first version, Landrover Discovery. I had a noise near my feet. I took it to the dealer, and they replaced the hydraulic pump. I think that was a A$ 2000.00 job under warranty. The noise was still there. I did my own investigation and found it to be the steering column seal where it goes through the firewall. One squirt of silicone fixed the noise!!! The motto of this story and your video is "learn how to do your own maintenance".

@dmc1539 3 года назад

Had the same year and model cost me a fortune while I had it. 3 compressors, 2 handbrake modules, multiple bushes in the suspension. Brake servo and master cylinder. Scrapped it at 10 years old when the main stealer wanted 6000 to replace the brake system. Biggest bag of crap ever.

@malcolmlane-ley2044 3 года назад

I really enjoyed your video and have now subscribed. I have a 23 year old Mercedes SL and I think what you are doing shows that taking a pragmatic approach and learning about your issues is clearly better than leading with your open wallet, I have also had to do this because there are very few garage mechanics now that know how to work on my car. Your calm and competent style and excellent English has reminded me very much of my good friend Soenke in Wuppertal and how much I love Germany so hopefully soon I will be able to visit again.

@trsfc1595 3 года назад

@JJ-mg1yx 3 года назад

I would imagine that as the engine load increases, so does the fuel flow from the pump, and a partially blocked fuel filter would cause the necessary restriction to display a fault. Great troubleshooting Guys (and doggy)

@Vera_and_Christian 3 года назад

Hello JJ, the pump appears to be most used prior start and at low engine RPM. Once the RPM goes up, the high pressure pump sucks the fuel in nearly on its own. I saw this on the pressure gauge because it goes negative. You can actually pull the fuse and the car will still run too. In my world, this is why the fault did not kick in at high loads. It came when basically coasting over the country roads. This is when the fuel pump actually is required to supply fuel to the slow cranking high pressure pump. But I might be completely wrong too.

Another great vid, much appreciated guys. Jag dealers same in the UK. Bought my XJ, with 25k miles, secondhand from the original supplying dealer, full dealer service history, 3 annual stamps. I'm sure the fuel filter was the original factory installed one, as was the air filter. I do all my own servicing, least I know its been done. Also I use a K&N air filter & as long as its correctly oiled then it'll filter better & at higher flow rates than the paper one.

We have driven our D3 to 42 countries on two expeditions. London to Cape Town and London to Melbourne. We have been to many LR dealerships. I have been cheated in two countries by LR dealerships. 1. London Battersea and 2. Melbourne City Land Rover. 🥲In London I paid for a diffs and transmission fluid service on early maintenance cycle. They never did any of them and that is an expensive service. It also possibly cost me a torque converter later on. In Melbourne they changed the high pressure pump when the low pressure pump was the fault. Zero confidence in LR dealerships to maintain these vehicles. Both times I thought I can trust these dealerships rather than do it myself. Big mistake. Great video, keep it up. 👍👍

@paulsehstedt6275 3 года назад

Fabians D3 need a complete rust proofing very soon. You've to replace the filters once a year to be on the safe side. KN filters are more open and must be cleaned with some special cleaner. KN filters last for 100,000 km, but not all engines are satisfied with KN: higher fuel consumption and more noisy. In heavy rain the snorkel sucks water into the filter and will damage it. That can be avoided by turning the scoop / air intake 180°, and it points to the rear. Oil change in the differentials would be a good idea. On the gearboxes it's more complicated. Good video.
