Exactly right. 2001-2004 were covered by the "diesel fuel pipe foul condition" recall.

The affected serial numbers were: LT7336101 to LT865281

LT865281 was a 19/04/2004 build so the problem appears to have been fixed for the final month of production. 27/5/2004 being the date the last D2 came of the production line.

Thanks OFFTRACK..

I fall into the April 2001 category.

Your vehicle read out from topix.

does build date 2000 mean you dont need to worry about the fuel line issue?

I'm not sure?

Also what is the ABS Modulator Valve Cover issue and would that still need attention?

Anybody who knows a bit more would be welcome to advise.

Cheers.

Mine just went at 185000. And I ordered one from LRdriect in the UK (around 230 quid) on Thursday night and it was on my doorstep at 11am Monday morning. :)

They also mentioned:

3 Years for the fuel pressure regulator..

5-6 Years for the Fuel Injection Harness..

It's about every 70k km for the injector harness, and my FPR was replaced after 7 years/110k km.

Yep, for me:
Now have almost 210,000km on my MY00.5 TD5 Disco

Fuel pump at about 180,000km

Injector loom at about 100,000km and not since

FPR was years and years ago, but has just started leaking again so somewhere around 100-110,000km and 210,000km sounds about right.
