hi all new member here 1st post. I want to change the fuel filter/s on my diesel 57 GS. Is there or 2 filters.

have been looking at site for sometime, find interesting 57 reg GS leather seats panoramic sun roof

One filter - front of engine, slightly off centre to the left and close to the top with four (from memory) pipes connected to it You have to unbolt the protection plate to get at it. The part no is LR001313 - google will give you the image etc.

If you search on here then there may be a "how to" guide

The original Freelander had 2, you only have one

You might want to have a look at this thread.

Thanks Fred My patience was tested on the oil filter change, with hands like shovels and a bit of knuckle scrapping, job was done knowing at least the filter as been changed.
As regards the glow plugs i will check procedure out but first I must have a go at the diesel filter thanks Mike 57 reg GS leather seats panoramic sun roof
