Thread: Defender TD5 Fuel Pressure Regulator

Mmm, I was going to say what about the warranty but I suppose an 03 might be just out timewise.

I would hassle them to fix it anyway as it is under 100,000km.

Yep - just out of warranty unfortunately...

When you say leaking can you pull it apart and fix it?I have never done it but for the money it is worth a try.Also try getting one from England. Pat

Where are you? Yes you will be able to get one alot cheaper than that.

If you have a good Dealer service history they might be able to claim it anway. Failing that, they are charging way too much labour. One hour should be sufficient.

Yep my Landie mechanic charged me about a hour labour when I had mine done.

Just put my '03 D90 into the dealer for 80K service and am told that the fuel pressure regulator is leaking.

Apparently this is a non-servicable part and they're after $435 for a new one plus $264 in fitting charges

Any suggestions on where else I could try to source one from to fit myself? I've got the workshop manuals and am not afraid to get my hands dirty.

Tips / warnings from those of you who've dealt with this before would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
Tim

I can supply, new plus gasket $310 to your door.

Fit it yourself! Only takes an hour on a Defender.

Whew! Many thanks all. Just got home and checked the manual on the work to be done - 6 bolts and renew the O-rings + gaskets Think i'll be having words to the dealer tomorrow about labour charges

Great to find somewhere where folks are so helpful!

Tombraider - I'll be dropping you a PM shortly...
