Hi, you need a suitable code reader, you really do. Until you get the trouble codes read, you are left with checking for loose wires, and blown Turbo rubber hoses, Start under the throttle body under the centre of the front of the engine. My guess is, if the rubber hoses are not blown, the fuel pump and, or loom inside the fuel tank, a not uncommon fault to diagnose. |

Has it been serviced recently? Was the fuel filter changed and if so what make is it?

Thanks Benzol, they're 40 minutes away for me so a bit far but I'll keep them in mind. What are they doing to your gearbox? Mine needs a flush and filter change but I might do that myself. I've booked it in locally to me (Petrotechnics) who are Bosch gurus to see what they think. |

Yes, you're right - I've been able to borrow one and have been able to get a bit further: https://www.freel2.com/forum/post417797.html#417797 The throttle body was replaced some time after 2013 along with the intercooler hoses. The wiring connector to the throttle body was not latched. It's very hard to compress the silicone seal in the connector and get the latch to hold. I resorted to cable ties to lock it on... I think this was a major cause of some of the codes. |

After the issue occurred, I replaced the fuel filter as it had been done by the previous owner. It was a purflex and I replaced it with a Coopers. More detail here on what I've done: https://www.freel2.com/forum/post417797.html#417797 |

You’ll need to be very mechanically skilled to change the auto box filter…not possible without removal & dismantling of the box! (Now Sold). 2008 Freelander 2 (Nazca Sand) SE TD4 Auto. Statutory write off & on WOVR for hail damage but still road legal. 171037Km as of 09/05/22 Superchips Bluefin Flash Nanocom Evo II (also sold) |

Benzol Did you get you Gbox and brakes done? If so what sort of $ do they charge? Cheers |
