Had a similar problem with my previous TD6. My injecting fault would only occur when my fuel tank was below 1/3. It would pop up on the dash and a few seconds later the engine would die. Funny thing is if you just keep priming the fuel system a couple of times by turning the engine off for a couple of mins and then turning ignition back on it always restarted, I would then hit the nearest garage and fill my tank up. I found that if I kept the tank above 1/3 I never had the problem. Ran my car like this for a month or 2 before I got an intank replacement fuel pump cheaply. I think Land Rover charge just over £300 for the part.

Thanks for this - I really appreciate. What you say concurs with the garage that took it in on a low loader - they called me today. |

get the KY out and get ready for it as the intank balancing pump is not cheap and some places seem to want to charge a fortune for it!

When I got mine replaced I had it replaced while I watched. It's not that big a job, it took the guy around 90 minutes in total, but he seemed to have little issue getting the old pump out and the new one in, guess I was lucky that he was good at this type of thing I guess.

The inside of the tank should be white and not have any other finish ime |

Well the inside of my tank was definitely a silvery grey type of finish to the inside, maybe there are different tank finishes, but I spent a good couple of minutes looking inside mine with the mechanics LED torch in my hand inside the tank. It still amazed me how pristine and clean it was in there with the light reflecting around inside the tank. |

I had the lift pump fail on my 06 TD6. I sourced a new pump for £77 quid on a well known auction site from a seller called glowplugman1. its for a BMW diesel and proved to be identical to my original pump. There is a little bit of work in taking the whole plastic sender/pump housing apart, but it is DIY doable and is a lot cheaper than £288 for the whole sender/pump unit. Its been working away for over a year now without problem |
