Had mine down to zero miles dozens of times, usually get a few miles further before it goes in to limp mode, I once did 7 motorway miles (to services) at a steady 55 mph on zero-not run out yet.

In my UK Owners Handbook page 20 it states:
Never allow your vehicle to run out of fuel as the resultant misfire may destroy the catalytic converter

Which is presumably referring to our DPF We have been warned  2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.

No, the DPF is a different filter to filter the soot out of the exhaust gasses. The catalytic converter is a device used to reduce the toxicity of emissions from an internal combustion engine.

Understand

Got it thanks - but we have still been warned which is what my posting was all about - possibility of blowing the catalytic converter

That is we have a internal combustion engine  2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.

Huh are you sure

For compression ignition (i.e., Diesel) engines, the most commonly used catalytic converter is the diesel oxidation catalyst. The catalyst uses excess O2 (oxygen) in the exhaust gas stream to oxidize CO (carbon monoxide) to CO2 (carbon dioxide) and HC (hydrocarbons) to H2O (water) and CO2. These converters often reach 90% effectiveness, virtually eliminating diesel odor and helping to reduce visible particulates.

ok you maybe right but the fragile ones are the ones on petrol engines At work
