Seeing as I can't be satisfied with doing no work to the L322, I've focussed my current efforts on changing the fuel filter as I can't find a record of when it was last changed. It certainly has been changed as it's now a Fuel Manager filter as opposed to genuine but when, who knows.

In looking for a replacement, I can also see this Fuel Manager filter being supplied by AF and wondered if anyone has any experience of these vs the genuine filters? Naturally there's a cost saving, but at ca. £20 I'd be more than happy getting genuine if there is a legitimate, objective benefit.

I've currently got no fuel filter related issues, that I know of, but it's just that peace of mind knowing it's been done under my ownership.

Cheers in advance!

Hi Ryan,
I believe Fuel Manager manufacture the LR filters so on that basis I've always been happy to use them.
Also if it is listed on the AF website it is normally a safe bet.
I'm sure someone will be along to correct me if that is not the case. 2012 TDV8 4.4 Westminster Santorini black

Fuel Manager filters are rebranded Stanadyne filters, who supply JLR with the genuine filters

Exactly the same part, minus JLR tax

Thanks both, exactly what I wanted to hear! I'll get onto AF now... 2009 facelift L322 3.6 TDV8 - Buckingham Blue
