    Sure they are not quoting you for an L series pump? I understood the TD4 injection pump was half the price of a L series - I am surprised at the cost of the lift pump - seems high.

    Definitely a 2003 model and they have seen a lot of it... sadly.

    Mega price for sure... after questioning I was told it's about $1700 for the pump and since posting here I've found one NIB in Oz for $600AUD so will be going in again tomorrow... can't believe what we patriots get charged.

    Angry injection pumps

    can anyone answer this question for me ?
    ive pulled down my 200 tdi and rebuilt it but when i removed the injector pump i was suppose to lock the pump so it couldn't be turned well i didnt do it now im not sure if it did get played with . So now when i have to refit the pump how do i know if its set right with the timing of cam and crankshaft is there something on the injector sproket that will tell me that or someother way of telling ? Or can i take it somewhere and get them to check it to make sure its ok and it didnt get spun around

    Thanks guys any help will be apreciated
    i should have read my workshop manual prior to removing it

    Andy,

    You have posted this in the Freelander section which most likely will not a lot of coverage as most landy people are Freelanderphobic .

    I suggest you move your post to the technical section or to either the Defender or Discovery 1 section as is appropriate for your engine.

    But you should be able to set the engine up and then the pump up so that all is in alignment when you reassemble - it should be in your workshop manual - I am sure some of the mechanics on the forum will pick up on this and help you out.

    Cheers

    Totally agree. I gave up on the aussy vendors - both used and new. Had a quick look on british ebay and there's an under bonnet pump there for £180 ($360AUD) if that helps. Still puzzles me why the low pressure pumps on these things cost so much - cause they can is the only answer I came up with.

    Particularly when lift pumps are not actually needed as evidenced by the suction bulb system used in the L series diesels.

    Yeah it bites big time. Even after telling them I was being raped they are immovable so I've now traded the Freeby in. I could get it home and sort it myself but to be honest, in another 100 thou or so I'd start sweating again.

    It has been a great ride and she'll be missed but now it's back to the bigger trucks... this time the TD5.

    Thanks to all here.

    The question is of course was the pump actually knackered. The TD4 being common rail, the injector pump just runs at a constant high pressure and does nothing else unlike other diesel pumps.

    When I was looking for a pump for my L series I was quoted by the local stealer (but not actually provided by Land Rover) $1700 and when I asked the guy to double check that it was not a TD4 pump he said it was correct as the TD4 pump was $750.

    Anyway - I am surprised with your issues as the TD4 has an excellent reliability record and is the best and most reliable version of the FL1.

    With your new TD5 you will have to invest in the center difflock activation mechanism as one of your first jobs.

    Good luck with it.

    Hey thanks Gary. Yeah it was a beaut little truck I have to say... excellent donk in it. It did have a nasty little leak that was only going to get worse but hey, what's new?

    I was reading last night about the diff lock on the TD5.... what a thing to take away! Will definitely look at getting that back, it saved my butt once in the 300TDi.

    Cheers!
