Thread: TD5 Fuel Pressure Regulator

When mine was due I decided to swap the complete unit. Takes about an hour. I have heard of some who did attempts to repair the part, with varying degrees of success. I reckon the price tag will be somewhere between AUD 200-300.

Mine cost about $230. I was told by my mechanic that there was definitely no or-ring kit for it and that it was a complete replacement.

It might be an easier job on the Td5 in the defender, but its a bugger to get to on the disco!

Yep, it's easier on a Defender.

I have kept my old one as I was planning to pull it down and look into the o rings. getting one should be possible once you know the size.

Well for once, I have had a win.
Checked with Landrover, as already stated they don't supply repair kits for the fuel px regulator and want $300 for a replacement.
I went to a Transeals at Atlas Court in Welshpool (ph 94516011) and they were able to supply the required orings IAW my sample at a total cost of $9.30.
The part numbers are:

• for the fuel line inlet and outlet fittings 6X1-5V7 - 6.0 by 1.5 mm Viton-75

• for regulator 106V7 - 0.174 by 0.103" Viton-75

• for regulator 117V7 - 0.799 by 0.103" Viton-75

To do the job all that is needed is normal hand tools and a reasonable medium sized circlip pliers to remove the regulator diaphram assembly.

So far no further leaks.

Hi Graz,

You don't happen to have a step by step for doing this do ya? Mine is leaking on my 2002 II Disco' TD5 and I would much rather know that I could pre-order in the seals, etc (I assume my unit is the same one on yours).


Let me know and I might even tackle this during the week.

Cheers,
