It relies on inputs from the engine ECU regarding air temp, engine temp, vehicle speed, engine speed and probably a whole bunch more inputs as well. It (ECU) then decides whether to trigger the fan clutch or not.

I thought this was the case! There is thread on here stating the opposite…

Fan on mine runs for a couple mins on startup then drops off. Runs in slow heavy traffic or when its hot (makes sense) and runs whenever the AC is on no matter what engine temp is or ambient temp is – turn the AC off when all is cool and the fan drops out about 20 sec latter. There is too much going on for it to be simply temp related.

Maybe I need to follow up the fan Clutch fault that was present.

Hello all!

I have suffered the same problem with my inline fuel pump the Range Rover will crank but wont start and all things lead to the inline fuel pump.

I have done a search and it would appear the following link is the correct part but would anyone on here be able to confirm this will fit my L322 Td6 i have spoken with a Land Rover mechanic and he said it is the same as the Freelander pumps... however he wants $498 for one!

Thanks guys!

Yup, that's one of them!

Grover, get a couple of small clamps. Once you can get under the car, it's a simple 5 min job but I found I needed new hose clamps, which I didn't have. Took me longer to go get clamps than I spent working on the car.
