Guys this helped me a lot with my Evoque, so thanks a lot. I was also wondering why the electric connector was blanked off on the replacement filter so thanks for pointing that out as well.
That said, online I found the screw-in water sensor adapter ( Nty ecw-lr-001 water sensor arrangement fuel ) that you can screw into the threaded hole on the bottom of the filter, it will puncture through into the filter to sensor water. I guess if you want a water sensor you can go for that option, and you don’t can simply plug the connector into the blanked off connector to get the wiring out of the way (?).
Hi Kenny 👋.
You are welcome, and we are happy that it helped. 😀 Thanks for that water sensor tip. 👍🏻

The three hex bolts holding the filter down are 6mm not 10mm.
Thanks for that comment RaysTrack 😀👍. I think the water had got into my head at that point. 😁

Top tutorial.
Nut is a flanged nut.
Screwdriver thingy is called a driver.
To make live easier use a 1/4” extension on the ratchet. Better still get a 1/4” driver that can also be used as an extension.

Thanks for filling in the blanks Michael and thank you for the tips 😀👍🏻.
THANK you.
You're welcome @ianbrown4242. 👍🏻😀
Fuel filter service schedule is every 2 years or 30k but I would half the mileage on them as they can show signs of blocking up at 15k.
General service is every 12 months of 15k oil, filter, air filter etc.
Brake fluids every 3 years.
Flexible hoses every 6 years.
I tend to change my oil and filter every 5-6k on diesels. Must check when the fuel filter was done also as I can't remember.
I also put a tank of BP ultimate Diesel in for every 4 tanks.
What made me think that the fuel filter was a yearly item was that the service packs that can be brought always include a fuel filter. 😀 It does make my head spin somewhat trying to keep on top of what needs to be serviced and when with the amount of different fluids and items on a Freelander 2 such as the haldex oil, PTU oil and the likes to add into the mix. 😅
Well done!
Thanks. 👍🏻 Great username Master Of Disaster 😁👌

@@ScottandAlana4x4 despite the name, i always manage to fix my cars and motorbikes😉
@@masterofdisaster7427 Hahahaha 😁. I'm great at taking things to pieces, just not so good at putting them back together again 😂.

I had to bleed and prime my fuel filter ( I was told by a mechanic that this is how it works with all the LR's, RR and Jags). I had to invest in a vaccum pump. That was connected to a compressor (you can use a hand pump) with a one-way valve. You need to bleed the outlet taking fuel back to the tank and the outlet to the injectors. You need to bleed this both. to get the Fuel filter filled with diesel and remove the air. The amount of air bubbles was incredible. The fuel was bled into a secondary 5lt drum or anything large. Take your time until there is no bubbles. Make sure you have enough fuel in you car for this effort. After 3 start (cranks), the car finally started. You need to do this every 12 months or 12,000Ks. Also please make sure your fuel filter either fits a SD4 or TD4. Some fuel filters are not specified for SD4. SD4's draws more fuel because of it higher Kw rating.
I had to bleed-through over 15 litres.
Pre fill the filter before you fit it. Easy.
Hi Rmgbgt 👋.
I'm personally not saying if your method is wrong or right. But I have seen that this could be a bad idea as some of the fuel inside the filter won't have been filtered before it enters the injectors. 1 tiny, tiny piece of dirt could then block one of the piezo injectors. 😀

A valid point. Just be careful to fill via the front left connector and it will filter as normal. Good, clear video btw. The connector, I believe, is a fuel temp sensor.
What make of pump did you use
If you're asking us and not someone else who has left a comment, then we showed what we used at 9:27 in the video. 😀 Although if we were to do it again, then maybe we'd try something like a big syringe that could pull the fuel through a bit harder. The hand bulb in the setup we used started to struggle when fuel started to come up the clear pipe, but it did the job ultimately. 👍🏻😀
