Freelander reeks of Diesel

Well my Freelander 2 was serviced this morning! Collected it and got home! Absolutely reeks of Diesel! Looks like a leak somewhere! Landrover assist will be called in the morning! 1998 300TDi Auto Disco, never to be forgotten.

Mines smoked and stunk a bit after the fuel filter was changed due to spillage when bleeding the fuel filter. I power washed the area and it still stunk and smoked for the first 10-15 minutes of my journey.

However giving all the connections on injectors and to and from the filter housing before going out in it would be advisable, because you motor bursting into flames half way down the motorway could be a bit of a nightmare!

Well Land Rover Assistance were called! No leaks! But whoever changed the fuel filter spilt rather a lot of Diesel in the engine bay!
Questions will be asked of my dealer when they open after the holiday! E mails have already been sent as LR assist want the engine bay washed out pronto!
LR Assistance were her within 30 mins! Excellent service! 1998 300TDi Auto Disco, never to be forgotten.
