We replaced the high pressure fuel pump on Fabians Discovery 3 but it did not result in a immediate sucess. Whatch the video to the end and you will see for yourself.
Thanks for watching,
Vera & Christian and Fabian
The following OBD2 faults got thrown by the ECU:
P0191-23 in various forms: Fuel rail pressure range/performance.
This fault is rarely caused by the sensor itself. P2290 Injector control pressure low
P0087 Fuel rail System pressure - too low.
All these faults can be caused by the LPFP System as well. So make sure you check this system first and replace the fuel filter.

Fabian is one very lucky LR Owner to have you two on speed dial lol great job
Lol for sure
As a toyota land cruiser 79 and 105 owner the insane complexity of this automobile leaves me with the shivers.
Yes, lots of unnecessary parts. All emission related nonsense. Christian
I'll stick with my 70 too.
You two really are the best friends a Landrover owner can have 😃😃😃
Hi from Australia guys. Really loving your videos. They are very addictive!
You continue to amaze me on how easily you do these seemingly scary big jobs. Had to laugh when Vera started putting the tools away, as I might have been guiltily of doing that in the past myself!!!
As an LR4 owner you get to hear lots of stuff knocking them for reliability things like “Land Rover a company that has been turning owners into mechanics since 1948.
But I really Like the phrase best said in a Strong South African accent “If you want to go into the bush take a Land Rover”. “But if you want to come back take a Toyota”.
But I still love my Disco.
Cheers for your great interesting LR content and showing us how good and very dry Gmb humour is.
Cheers from the UK.
We are all about Land Rovers.😃 The thumbnail is just a teaser. Normally, I get so many comments on a repair video that ...'we should have just bought a Toyota'... 😅. 🙋♀️ Vera
Tools get put away after the new part is installed not after the old part is removed. You’re only half way there. We have all experienced this. I really enjoy the repairs, the dialogue, the humor and the patience. Christian and Vera, you work well together.
If only Land Rover fitted Perkins engines, we would have had 70 years of good engine reputation and not bad.
Yes, but than we would have no content 😅. 🙋♀️ Vera
@@Vera_and_Christian 🤣 I'm sure the rest of the vehicle would keep you both busy enough and then you'd also be able to make videos about driving and enjoying the Vehicle rather than having to edit out all the swearing 🤣
@@wammdriver Well, our UA-cam Channel resulted out of Covid Travel restrictions 😅. Without Covid, there would probably be no LR Time. 👍🙋♀️ Vera
In Australia they fitted an Isuzu engine (3.9 4BD1T) to the 110 - proved to be the greatest LR ever built. Australian army loved them.
@@nnoddy8161 Let's not mention the gearbox and snapping gear lever though 😉
Absolutely great video again! Incredible to see so much knowledge and patience while performing the job! Also love the subtile humour!
Christian and Vera great video and presentation and I’m sure Fabian appreciates all your fantastic knowledge and work on this vehicle ,,))) 🇬🇧
I would not have tackled such a stressful job, much less having to do it twice. Fabian is a very lucky man to have you as a friend. Great job.
I would at least attempt it. It is either that or you pay 4000 Euros for the repair. If you are patient you can get great satisfaction repairing your own vehicle. The great thing is that you know that you done it yourself and nothing feels greater than that. No boring Toyota for me lol
Excellent as always you have the patience of a saint
I have no idea how you know which screws goes where when putting everything back. So many screws and pipes. :-D Respect!
They either fit or they don't. Ofcourse, that is not the way Christian will do things...there will be some precise way of identifying each nut bolt and washer - with suitable replacements in stock and emergency spares just in case!
We do label difficult ones. That is actually really great with the digital Land Rover Manual for the Discovery 4. You can even put the picture number on your screw. If you have watched our video when we fixed the oilsensor on our LR4, we show a couple of ways to keep track of difficult screws. And I have many icecream boxes, so for every part we take off, only those screws are put in. 👍🙋♀️Vera
@@Vera_and_Christian I think I was around 10 and my uncle had given me a Villers 2 stroke motor - quite small..it didn't work when i got it, then I pulled it apart, cleaned it, worked out where everything went and put it back together again and lo and behold, it ran...but there were a couple of large bolts left over...obviously over engineered. Yes, I find it hard to believe too, but that is what happened.
@@BenMitro 😅👍🙋♀️ Vera
On jobs like this, I take a piece of cardboard and stick all the bolts through it in the order & shape of the part. Airfilters also worked well for this.
Mate, I think your title is very apt. Oh my you’ve all got patience and perseverance.
I am astonished at the layers of complexity here, just as much as your ability to disassemble everything, and more importantly, to reassemble it all without forgetting anything. I think I saw a trusty Haynes manual on your bench, but you seem to know every detail of this engine off by heart without using it.
I can sure make it look like that I know what I am doing. All I need to do is to film an empty screw box... And make sure that Vera thinks that all screws are installed... But of course, nothing was left over.
I do prefer the LR shop manual before the Hayes for such complex repairs. The Hayes is good too but the illustrations in the LR manual are better and more detailed.
Christian
Love your simple honest and extremely helpful videos. I have an LR3 4.00 petrol engine version, these are quite popular here in New Zealand. Keep up the fantastic work!
I’ve got the 4.0lt here in Australia !
224k kms, pretty good so far, recently done the solenoids in the 6hp, front air struts and soon to do the lower control arms and compressor rebuild
My Discovery 3 only starts after two turns while cold. As a possible solution, I got the glow plugs replaced but the problem persisted. I wanted to change my high pressure fuel pump as the next solution but my Land Rover specialist mechanic gently persuaded me to wait until my Discovery no longer starts.
From watching your video, I think I know why he is hesitant to replace my fuel pump. It's clearly open heart surgery with Surgeon Christian in the operating theatre and Vera, the ever reliable trustworthy nurse :-)
👍😅Yeah your mechanic doesn't really want to have anything to do with a Discovery, reading your other comment. 😀 🙋♀️Vera
Thoroughly enjoying your wrenching, even though I’m a Citroen (Xm, Saxo) and Toyota (Prius) owner! I think everyone who loves engineering will enjoy this, with all the witty lines containing so much pretty universal information! Big thumbs up!
If I had only the time and space to work on our Cits… never came past the point of replacing a timing belt together with a mechanic. Luckily we do have a specialist nearby who works on them in his free time, they’re not dealer maintained!
That is one hell of a job, always liked the disco 3 but I'm very glad that I bought an early l322 with the bmw m57 engine. So much easier to work on compared to this nightmare
you are right, I'm waiting the INIOS GRENADIER, have a d4 myself, 7 hours to swap the A/C compressor,yes Mr LR time is very clever indeed
Been looking for a 4x4, something with a BMW M57D30. That comes down to a LR L322 or a BMW X5 E53.
Reliable, bomb-proof M57 engine, I have a couple of BMW E39s with M57D30 engines, manual gearbox and a solid service history are the prime criteria.
Regarding glow plugs I used similar method ran the engine for a few minutes to warm up the block on a insignia/opel and it came out easily , tried it once on a cold engine and it broke plug learnt my lesson
Yeah we are glad to that we took the glow plugs out of Fabians Discovery. Now we can do a proper video when we change them on my Discovery 3. 😅👍🙋♀️ Vera
great job. What a work. 99 % off the people cannot to this by himself. But i am very happy that i have the V8 petrol.
I wish have someone like Christian close to my home, he is very good as a land rover mechanic! Something i learned repairing my LR4 is buy new originals parts..
Sometimes, especially during Corona, we just could not get OEM parts. But yes, if we can afford OEM, we absolutely try to get them. 👍🙋♀️Vera
Nice, thank you for the video! I changed mine a while ago, it was also refurbished, but it came with a printout of test protocol, which should ensure that the PCV and VCV work as they should, even if they are not renewed. Interesting, I didn’t remove the EGR stuff, nor battery, nor cable tree. However, I did have to remove the glow plug thingie nevertheless, which might have been much more fiddle in my case. It is noteworthy that you were lucky that you encountered the more modern type of HPFP, which sits on some kind of holder. Therefore it is smaller and - as we see in the video - very easy to get out. Also, the front side of the HPFP belt case seems to be detachable. In my case, the HPFP has its own “legs” that it is standing on and bolted on with, which makes it so big and clunky that removing it was a job similar to removing the oil separator case, only with 10-fold weight. :) The real difficulty however was that the front half to the pump belt cover is NOT removable in my case, in fact the pulley sticks through it and I had to bend the cover backwards like crazy. I guess I was close to breaking it. …so clearly, in later versions (than my 2006) I think that LR modified the pump and the belt cover to make replacement easier. By the way, I also had to file my pulley a bit. :-) And as a funny fact, I put the old belt (and tensioner) back in because the new one didn’t arrive in time before vacation (a.k.a. big test drive). Alas, changing the belt is relatively easy once your hands have spent hours in that corner… :))
We have a 2006 too, and I really hope that we don't have to change the HPFP. 😅 We changed the belt on Fabians car too, putting in a belt from Bosch that came with a defect 🙄. Getting the pump out on Fabians Disco was also a tough one. Remember we edit all of our videos and only put in the most important steps, or in our case funny situations. At least what we think is valuable for the getting the job done. We cannot put hours of trying in video, we try not to waste anyyones time. We will do a major overhaul on our Disco 3 engine, even considering taking the engine out for that job, during Christians winter vacation time after Christmas. 👍🙋♀️ Vera
You have a lot more patience than I do. When I worked at Toyota one of the key design requirements was "serviceability".
That requirement does not exist at LR. 😂👍 Christian
Great video as usual well done,poor Vera!
Almost felt guilty sipping a beer watching all this work. Great job as always, looked rather fiddly gaining access. Makes my old Passat TDI look simple 👍🏼
👍 😃 🙋 Vera
Evening Vera & Christian 😀 Hope you’re both ok 👍🏻 Your videos are absolutely fantastic 😆 Vera is so sweet and you make a fantastic team for us fans on UA-cam 🤣 Take care cheers as always Stevie 😎🏴
😃Thanks 🙋♀️ Vera
Brilliant I wish I had you as a neighbour Christian you’re a brilliant mechanic I had my high-pressure fuel pump replaced when I had my body off my LR3 with a replacement turbo not cheap and a message to Vera you keep putting them tools away😂😂😂
😁🇬🇧👍
I have no idea why when watching these complicated videos of fixing a disco that I want to buy one! 😖😖😖
I don't think you are the only one, they are so addictive, aren't they. 😅👍🙋♀️ Vera
I have watched two of your videos for what I am like call “major” repairs on the Disco 4 and now the 3 and I don’t think I’ve ever seen more plastic, connectors, shields or horses in an engine bay. I fell in love what what I have seen with this car up to the point of actually test driving a Disco 4. Unfortunately, after watching these videos, I just can’t see myself getting a car that will likely need repairs having to do this left of work to do repairs on this level. With the alternative being big money. It’s a shape too because I found a Disco 4 that was really nice, throwing no codes but air conditioner not blowing cold air.
It’s a quite reliable car but it can be a money pit. Christian
@@Vera_and_Christian is it safe to say there is a good service manual? Or do they just not want you working on it?
@@Romenet310 There is a service manual, search for it, and every other Discovery related infos on the Disco3.co.uk website. 👍👍🙋♀🙋♀
What a great video, thanks both faultless content and most enjoyable to watch you all interact.
Lockdown Victoria here. Great videos!
doing this job twice!!!!!! Fabian couldn't have a better friend/ mechanic.
Amazing job you done there :) You Guys are amazing !!! Greetings from Poland.
Fantastic video as ever. Thank you so much.
Respect fot your skills on this job. LR forgot to make space under the bonnet for repairs on the disco. Its a huge 4x4 but a disaster to work on. Thats why you do not see them as a working 4x4 in remote areas of the world. Thats where the Land Cruisers and Hilux are. I work worldwide in the oil/gas industry so i just see this on every job i go.
I have the same interior trim colour as the LR3 turning over and not starting, my heart dropped just looking at the gauges and dreading the thought that could be me sitting behind the steering wheel of mine. You’ve got to be a masochist me thinks to be a LR3 owner. Again great video guys.
As a proud owner of an LR4 HSE, I am simply in love with all of your videos. :D
😅👍 Thank you🙋♀️ Vera
Another great video and excellent job, I don’t have an LR but love the taught of them, but not the possibility of all the work on them. I am an ex Machanic myself and admire your knowledge. Behind every great Man is an even greater Woman 👩 love your double act 👍
👍 😃 Thank you 🙋 Vera
Vera is a lovely person! You are a very lucky man Christian, and Id love to own my dream car, a Range Rover Diesel, and of course live neaby you guys, Christian is a Land Rover encyclopedia! An Expert... Such a great time, and above all a nice friendship for sure. Best regards! And GREAT video! Cheers!
One more time. I’m impressed.
Well this has certainly helped my anxiety, having recently bought a D3 (very cheap I might add) knowing it needed work. I drove it home approximately 30 miles. The next day it didn't start. Fault finding found LPFP faulty. Changed that and the filter and now seemingly the HPFP is faulty also..... I'm a capable DIY'er but this video has certainly helped with a level of anxiousness about this particular job!
Love the videos!
😀👍Just don't buy a refurbished HPFP, if you have to replace it. We get contacted weekly from people who installed a refurbished one and the fault came back after 4 weeks. Same with Fabians refurbished HPFP. 🙋♀️Vera
Sadly I can't find a new one anywhere. So it's looking like I'm going to have to fit refurbished. We now have p0087 and p2290 so looking like the pump and valves there in are the issue. This video certainly fills me with hope..... Tuesday/Wednesday we'll know for sure!
Brilliant as ever and amazing patience as well! Thank you and all best from the U.K.
Vera, you are a champion. Hope you can keep up the great spirits.
😀👍🙏🙋♀️Vera
Dear Vera & Christian,
you create very interesting and helpful videos! I'm watching your videos for about 1 year. That time I was looking for the information about LR 3 & 4. The possibility to repair the vehicle as DIY increased my interest to that car, as I like to spend some time with it. I did few test drives on LR 3 & 4. I like the interior, many practicable features, tailgate (not very practicable, but cool :). It is easy to fall in love with this car. I was almost decided to buy one. But my research about the reliability continued. Not only youtube, but other sources show the really huge issues with reliability. On the second hand market so many cars are already with new engine, or with broken one. I would not be able to spend so much time repairing the car and most important - this car does not satisfy basic characteristic as off-road vehicle - reliability. So I decided to use another car manufacturer. Your video helped me to make my choice. I wish you to have enough energy for the future videos! Thanks!
You are absolutely right. If you don't have the time, ability an resources, than a Land Rover is not the right car to buy. We do try to get that point across. That is also what I write anyone contacting us about what to look for when buying a LR Discovery. Still hope you enjoy our videos 😃👍🙋♀️ Vera
Major surgery just to get to the offending organ. Nurse Vera, may I suggest you count the number of tissues on the way in and match that number removed. Great work again saving €4000. 👍🏻🙏🏽😷🦘
On my Disco I bought an electronic unit that fires up the engine heater and it warms the engine in the winter before starting. It works off the Headlight main beam. So programme the key fob to work the main beam, click the headlight on for 2 seconds and then click them off again and you will hear the engine heater fire up. 5 minutes later the engine will start and you have warm air immediately in the cabin. Much easier than replacing and breaking the glow plugs.
I have a duramax diesel in my Silverado and thought I should see if I could find a diesel in a LR3 or 4 that I could import into Canada, but after watching you work on this I think I will stick with the V8 I have in the LR3. A lot easier to work on the gas unit I think.
True. The Diesel was also not sold in North Amerika as far as I know. I would also drive the petrol V8 but a liter. is 1.8 Euro here. Christian
@@Vera_and_Christian Gas is not cheap here either, last time I filled up it was $1.709 per liter (premium) or $7.77 per gallon. Diesel here is about $1.40 per liter. I typically average about 13 to 17 liters per 100 Km's depending on where I'm driving.
You are correct on your torque wrench sir. Adding or subtracting length effects the torque outcome.
Torque= (Length + extension) / length
Thanks, I was worried about that. Christian
Had to do the high pressure fuel pump on the disco 4 a few months ago. For comparison $2500 plus labour down here in Oz.
Was that through LR or an independent garage
@@ponytrishpip independent, LR genuine part
It's always easier the 2nd time around. Great job as always, and no lathe work required.
😅👍 But they had to fix that connector sensor in the beginning. So some machining was required 😂.🙋♀️ Vera
Yes,you should have bought a Toyota.Excellent video,you have patience and skill.
Another excellent video, but scary for most of the Discovery 3 owners.
Oh, das bekommt man richtig Angst um sein Auto, wenn man sieht, was bei Fabian inzwischen alles repariert werden musst.:-)
Mich fasziniert besonders Euer Fachwissen, thumbs up
Love the bickering between you both and that's definitely not a job I wouldn't want to do.
I was keeping an eye out for a petrol V6 LR4 (to upgrade from my LR2) but looking at all the repairs required, I'm really rethinking my choice and considering a 4Runner. I'm not lucky like Fabian to have a Christian around here in Canada ;o) Thanks and Cheers!
Petrol ones are pretty good. Only 2010-2012 v8 had a timing chain tensioners problem, but v6 from 2013 are quite good. though they also have direct injection, but the fuel pump is much cheaper
Thank you @@romantkachuk168 for this information! Very helpful!
The petrol versions are not as bad as the diesel ones. We would love to get a V8, but that is not possible for us, and our budget, here in Germany 👍 😃. And Fabians Discovery is like the worst case scenario. 🙋 Vera
@@Vera_and_Christian Thanks for taking the time to reply Vera! Really appreciate it! I'll try to keep my hopes up on Land Rover!
Awesome repair. I really enjoy watching these. I am purchasing on when my health improves, (I am suffering with long covid, after having caught covid 4 times and almost dying 6 times from it) which should be in around 8 months time. I have purchased the Haynes manual which arrives tomorrow and will start putting some tools together. I intend to learn as much about the Disco 3 as possible and well aware that the real learning will come as I physically take on the repair tasks (getting the feel of it). I am still undecided whether or not to get the diesel or Petrol 4.4L V8 version. My partner also wants me to purchase a Disco 3. Thanks for sharing. Tony & Laura
Excellently done. Very good to know. Thank you!!
Excellent work 👍
😬😲 wow that certainly was a strip down to get to that……very knowledgeable very well explained , we all need you on speed dial 😂 love your humour 😅
Great job! I wish i had such a friend if i ever have another problem on my D4
It is highly evident you are a determined and motivated Engineer.....more especially a determined and motivated 'German' Engineer. Excellent work(×2). 👍
Enjoyed watching this....though it is apparent that 'Vera the apprentice' is gaining a new skill set as well....namely the use of 'Engineering speak' such as the word "$hit" as opposed to "OMG". 😁👍
😅👍🙋♀️ Vera
Sorry cool as Land Rovers are and they are cool. But they just are too much trouble and too much expense for the average person. I am glad you enjoy the challenge and I get to watch your progress. I have a BMW and thought it was a bit of trial and expense but nothing like this! 😂
Hey guys, thanks for the video. We have a D4 with the same issue. Not sure i want to tackle it myself though.
Hi Christian and Vera. I had a Land Cruiser FJ80 which was a fantastic car but the parts prices are even more "How Much!!!!!!!" than Land Rover. Of course it didn't break down either but where's the fun in that and you'd only get bored with nothing to fix!
Yes, parts cost on the LR is good. It is a high end car at the end. Christian
Great job. I think if your wife had toyota jeep then it would be interesting how often each car needed repairs and maybe some of yr other friends had Benz G class or jeep Cherokee for even further comparisons.
Maybe Fabian's girlfriend needs to get one of those. 😅 We are working on comparing the repairs of our LR3 and LR4. Right now, my LR3 is winning. 😄👍🙋♀️ Vera
I love your videos, they are amazing!!! ... and excellent for every Schrauber DIY!!😍
Most ‘reman’ equipment these days is junk, secondhand components, and a quick spray of Black from a rattle can 🤨 Christian is a skilled patient worker, Vera is very very patient! , and Fabian is a lucky man to have C&V as friends 😁
You are truly amazing.
I am sure you have thought about this away from the stress, but you were correct with the crow foot at 90 degrees to the shaft of the torque wrench. That will give you as close to the correct torque that is possible.
19:40 The torque is still increased slightly in this configuration, though by a lesser amount than if the crowfoot was straight. In the 90* configuration the moment arm is the hypotenuse of the torque wrench and the crowfoot, rather than the total length of the wrench and crowfoot in the extended configuration. Long story, it is over torqued, though just by a small amount.
Thanks. Christian
Well done. Very patient man.
Jesus that was a hard looking job to do ___ Well done , I would not tackle that , great fun video _thanks .
Wow a rebuild pump never thought it existed especially a EU2 spec pump, not undoing the EGR clamps also very weird, I would have checked/renewed the glow plugs while there, my understanding of the throttle is a emergency shut down if the engine runs away for some reason it shuts air from the engine to kill it before it destroys itself.
By the way I would rather push my Land Rover than drive a Toyota.
Hmmm. 🤔 Did you watch this video? The pump is a EU4. Of course there are remanufactured pumps. Even from Siemens licensed manufacturers. And we did renew the glow plugs as shown at the end of the video. Opening the EGR clamps required new gaskets vs. removing the bolts does not. What’s wrong with this? I agree with you on the Toyota but we need more viewers. Landrover installing a function to save a run away engine??? 😂Thanks for your comment. Christian
Hello Andy, I will try to open the clamps next time around. This will be happening when I replace the glow plugs on Veras TDV6. I checked the butterfly valve on my SDV6 and it does actuate on ignition off. So you are correct. On our 2006 TDV6, I could not witness any reaction. It is also not broken. I see the command value and position value in the OBDIl. Simply no reaction, ever. This triggered my comment as it appeared to be unused installed technology… I do find the engine runaway prevention idea very interesting. I would like to simulate it to see if LR really did this… My friend indeed stalls his MAN with a rag in the intake when the engine gets out of control. Thanks for your input. Christian
😂😂 I should have watched the video to the end and thats my bad. I really lost interest with fitting a rebuild pump, I have yet to see one that actually works. I NEVER had a Tdv6 glow plug ever break and I remove them stone cold, I must also admit if the HP fuel pump does not have to be removed I only renew 5 glow plugs, the one next to the fuel pump just cant get out with the pump in situ.
Yes the EGR clamp can be reused many times over using the correct pliers to undo and re-crimp them. Another tip with the glow plugs only use the Delphi ones, the fit the 2.7 and 3.0 and 3.6 also cheaper than the Bosch
@@Vera_and_Christian sounds like a leak in a mechanically regulated injection pump, which has a membrane to the air intake to control the fuel amount, mechanical volume control valve so to speak. A leak in the membrane and the engine can draw fuel on its own through negative pressure in the air intake.
That tidy boot is impressive
Amazing job Christian how you keep your cool with Vera moving your tools all the time.😂
🇦🇸
I don't do that all the time. 😅 It happened once. 🙄😂🙋♀️ Vera
I wish I had a father like Christian.
So funny... I should have bought a Toyota too ..
Just fixed a bunch of stuff on my disco 3 and now the bonnet won't latch closed 🙈🙈
Turning a love affair into a hostage situation
😅👍 I feel for you 🙋♀️Vera
@@muth7148 to be fair, I have had 10 good years and the repairs are not unexpected.
Just amazing how a small problem can annoy me more than a big problem.
Super job you guys! I am off to Javea in Spain for 19 days starting this Friday looking forward to the journey. I'd like to get in touch with you this year still. Keep those videos rolling !
😃👍 Have fun and enjoy your vacation. 🙋♀️ Vera
Since Fabian is paying for everything …. I need my ZF transmission rebuild and a set of ignition coils for my RR Sport. Thanks Fabian in advance 😜
How many ks on the zf and did you ever change the transmission fluid and filter? It’s only good for about 50000miles
I had a 2005 Tdv6 and deleted the egr pipes and put in place the blanking plates and removed the throttle body valve,deleted the catalytic converter and built a single pipe 3” straight through exhaust system and never had an issue with any engine problems!
Great video as per usual! Never had the pleasure of replacing a hp fuel pump on a disco but it sure looks like lots of fun! Looks like a similar pain in the ass as replacing inlet manifolds !
😅👍 🙋♀️ Vera
enjoyed the video.. what a complex machine.. hehe
That looked like a nightmare! Nice work.
2nd time was a walk in the park… next time blind folded will work. Christian
Hi , Great work and two pumps later , did it carry on working ? Magic how you got through this repair and still have some humor left . Thanks to Fabian ,s bank manager for his part in the making of your video . Take care and have a rest . 😕🙃😊👍
😅I don't think he has one. He did not pay us anything to do the work. 🙋♀️Vera
Videos on Toyotas are very hard to make; few people want to see a car just working perfectly. Fortunately we have Range Rover's. And Audis. And Volkswagens. And over here we have general motors, Ford and Chrysler products
😅 That was just a teaser thumbnail. Usually, when we do a repair video, we got so so many comments that we should have just bought a Toyota. We are all about Land Rover. 😃🙋♀️ Vera
I'm going to you for the next repair of my Discovery 3 😜😉👍
Take out the fuel tank. You’ll notice a small gauze at the bottom of the low pressure pump. It will be blocked. Happened to me. Easy fix. Good luck.
We have taken out the fuel tank, and you are right, the gauze was pretty dirty. Our intend was also to change the in-tank fuel pump. But as it turned out, the original fuel pump was still better than the new in-tank fuel pump Fabian bought, so we left the original in. We did that right after we changed the diesel filter. Unfortunately, that footage was, in Christians opinion, not good enough for a video. 👍🙋♀️ Vera
Hi, I look forward to your videos every Sunday and find them both interesting and entertaining :-) I hope to God that I never have to do so much work on my Disco 4 engine as you have done on Fabians Disco 3 ;-)
Take care you two, and best wishes from the Isle of Wight
I think Fabian's Discovery is a special case. And we really hope that this finally fixed the problem.🙋♀️ Vera
@@Vera_and_ChristianHi Vera. I hope so too 🙈 That job looked bad enough doing it once, but twice 😳 Let’s hope that Fabian doesn’t need any more work doing for quite a while, it’s costing him a fortune 🙄. You and Christian take care 😉
@@bobevansIW Well he cannot complain 😅 he only paid for the parts. 👍 😃 🙋 Vera
excellent video salute 👍
Ок, I figured that if I want to drive a discovery3 I should move to livе next to you.
😄😄
haha just makes you wonder why we love our Discovery 3,s but we do.... If ether you have money (no) or are handy with spanners(somewhat) the Disco is a super vehicle combining comfort, performance, presence and just a level of satisfaction knowing you can go nearly anywhere in the world on and off the pavement! or tow any kind of trailer .... There are many SUV,s out there but I just like my Disco god help me lmao! as I have said mine is fully tooled up for overlanding and it does this with aplomb no problems in utter comfort!
You are absolutely right. They are just about the coolest SUV's around. And we do not have any unusual problems with our Discoveries, both of them. Just the normal stuff everyone knows about and you can expect when driving such a heavy car. When Fabian bought his Disco, he actually had no idea what to look out for when buying a used Land Rover, or what it takes to maintain one. I am sure he has learned his lesson.😃 👍🙋♀️ Vera
Excellent video very interesting.
Hi Christian & Vera.
Your videos are always very helpful.
One thing I'm curious about is if you reuse the high pressure fuel pump belt, how do you reset the tensioner? How do you reinstall it? Thanks,Shawn
We have several videos on that. Search for high pressure fuel pump on our channel👍👌🙋♀️
Hello, with the last modification you made for the fuel gauge to work, bridging the male connector from the fuel pump; was the connection not available for it from the filter? Or was it available but not communicating with the aftermarket fuel pump? And what happened to the filter connector after bridging the fuel pump connector ? Is it left loose ?
Amazing Job :)
I have a 2005 lr3 4.4 petrol engine HD, 230,000 miles one shock front driver blown my fault hit so hard disconnected the intake boot, blew transfer case on extreme hill climb, otherwise fantastic vehicle overall. My lifted Touareg V8 handles better.
With so many major problems fixed now, Fabian is driving an almost new car 😂
You would think so, but he keeps still messaging Christian constantly 😅👍🙋♀️Vera
