    Guys - this is an amazing coincidence for me. I bought a 2009 RR sport recently. It ran fine until 2 days ago when it wouldn’t start. Same fuel rail pressure fault as you are getting but no other electrics issues. I am scratching my head as it is getting pressure readings to the rail. Priming it 3 times on the key will get it to start and run for 5 seconds before cutting out. I am assuming a fuel pressure sensor problem but I can now watch you two professionals do some troubleshooting.

    You guys are incredible. We love watching you diagnosing the problems. One problem you thought might have been caused by a drink getting spilt. I have another thing which may have caused that issue as it happened to one if my previous cars. I took it for the only time I ever had an inside valet. The guy doing it obviously wasn't as careful as they advertised as he sprayed something into the controls of my cd/radio and once it dried it gummed up the whole thing. It cost me £70 to get it fixed! The guys were kind enough to explain what had caused it and how. They had used the wrong cleaner permanently taking off the shine and rather than own up and say something they sprayed it with some other stuff which made it glossy again and that's what glued up the controls. Lesson learnt. I've never had my car valeted again. I do it myself as best I can or a family member does it.

  • @haydenuk02
    @haydenuk02 2 роки тому +1

    Great work and thanks for sharing this looking forward to seeing what the issue is . I think it’s what Chris said it is either the fuel pressure or the gearbox inhibitor as if it’s the gearbox inhibitor the key would get stuck as it wouldn’t know if it was in park hence not bing able to remove the key and not being able to start the car. Or the fuel level is too low . Take care

  • @AndyK.1

    I saw the exact same symptoms a long time ago on a Rover Sterling. I realise the cars have nothing in common at all but after confounding numerous mechanics the problem turned out to be the gear selector. Somehow it had got slightly misaligned and wasn’t in the position indicated by the auto lever. Thus the car wouldn’t start and you couldn’t remove the key. It was a simple fix but fiendish to identify.

    Hi guys.
    I have a discovery three, with the same engine in it. Your range Rover sport sounds like it is spinning over at the correct speed, I think you can probably eliminate low compression. As a previous person has mentioned if the gear selector was at fault it would inhibit the engine turning over at all. Key remove all is probably a separate issue. You state that the vehicle has had a new fuel pump belt. If I had to guess, I think that would probably be the first port of call. If it has not been tension properly it may have come off. You may find it in the under tray. Looking forward to the resolution of this. Another great video Rob. PS what version of top Don do you have? I have recently purchased the airdiag500. Not sure it goes into enough of the systems.

    @recs5351 2 роки тому

    Easiest way to prove it's fuel related is to spray brake cleaner into the inlet while the other is turning it over if it fires up you'll know fuel isn't present under normal conditions. A diesel leak of test can still prove useful even tho it doesn't start, you'd be able to see really excessive leak off that could be bringing the rail pressure down enough to prevent it from starting. If that is the case unplugging that injector may help it to fire up. Maybe worth removing the fuel filter and some of the fuel in the housing placing into a clear thick bag and running a magnet around it to see if any metal is present :)

    The fuel pressure loss is a result of the problem not the problem itself. By all means check it however you could see on the scanner the pressure rose, it tried to fire and then it dropped by 75% to residual pressure.
    The other clue was where the key could not be removed and then could be as the indicator light on the dash changed after moving the lever.
    Its easy to follow a wrong path when diagnosing but Chris was right on point early on looking at the gear selector. I would lay money the problem is some sensor or wiring under the console or on the gearbox itself. It was clearly running well but then stopped running well quickly and in to Limp Mode. That is electrical IMHO.
    I think you lads have landed on your feet again.

      Hiya mate 😃 It needs around 2000psi before it will switch the injectors which is why it fired briefly. Not sure why it fires and then drops the pressure. Maybe fuel rail pressure regulator? Agreed though, if it was running fine then suddenly stopped, it's far more likely to be an electrical fault (Sensor) rather than mechanical

      Wouldn't want to do this one on the side of the road though!

    Going to be an interesting one!!! Think the gearbox selector mech needs adjusting but key cause is as you have said fuel. I wonder if the main fuel filter has ever been changed and this is restricting the high pressure pump? Could also be a high pressure pump issue which is an “interesting” job to change. Good luck lads 👍🏻👍🏻

    12:15 The videos where you took the cab off a Range Rover where the first videos of yours that I watched a few years ago.
    24:20 This is going to be a good series. We love seeing fault finding 'will it start' videos.
    4:32 The time-lapse video of the clouds in the sky came out really well!

    So on my range rover sport I had a very similar problem. There was an ecu under windscreen where water had got to it. Connections were cleaned up and solved the issue. Also the brake switch under brake pedal can cause all sorts of strange faults (£15 part). You never know.

    • @timbo19751975
      @timbo19751975 2 роки тому +1

      Brake pedal switch is a common failure (shud always carry a spare!!) but it results in a no crank symptom. I agree about the bcu filling with water - windscreen seals failing are also common.

    Hi Chris / Rob ... it sounds like the In Tank fuel pump has shit a brick .. the main HP fuel pump will try and drag fuel through but will not be able to produce approx 10/14 thousand PSI to fire the injectors .. if it were the belts then you should be having Crank and camshaft positioning sensor flagging up .. I'd crack the fuel inlet to HP pump and check In tank pump is Pumping fuel up to it ... with the ignition on and gear selector in park ... Keep up teh good work .. Andy

  • @paulroberts1863
    @paulroberts1863 2 роки тому

    I agree with the majority…. Yes it’s getting SOME pressure but diesels need a certain pressure to operate most components and if there’s a clogged filter, faulty pump etc, this can restrict the flow and in turn the vehicle won’t start. Looking forward to the next video rob and Chris 👍💪

    Whenever one of these turned up on the back of a recovery truck the workshop suddenly became completely empty of staff.
    On most occasionswe farmed them straight out to LR. Not that they could fix them either!
    This one sounds fairly straightforward, fuel delivery issues
    If the transmission is reporting that its in gear it won't turn over. Good luck!

    Check the wiring harness plug in front right wheel arch behind rear arch plastic. Very common for water ingress and sending the electrical system into melt down. You have various results from your code readings, it's not consistent, I would say wiring/plug with inconsistent contacts

    What happened with the Land Rover Discovery Sport HSE that Chris did the bottom end on? A temporary fix, in the last video on it 9 months ago you mentioned parking it up and waiting to source a used engine. Have I missed a update on it, in another video?
    Also, probably make some money selling them wheels and swapping them for a standard set. Someone will swap for stock and chuck you some money if you're lucky. Looking forward to seeing the problem, the solution and the numbers. 🙂

    May just be a bad earth somewhere, if an earth strap has not been put back after working on it, that may explain the huge list of faults the car has accumulated as well as the fuel rail range performance issue, definitely worth checking the rail pressure and injection quantity though

    • @alanbrand7681
      @alanbrand7681 2 роки тому

      Most of the faults wiped id say they were caused by the low battery.
      If car goes below 9v during cranking it causes all sorts of issues.

    Had an issue years back with a 2007 sport , wife ran low on fuel and it managed to air lock , spun over like yours but just wouldn't fire ..... after filling it with fuel still no start , we got it to fire by pressing in on that valve where you putting the diesel pressure gauge whilst cranking it .... might help might not ..... what I have learnt after owning range rover sports is they can be finicky to say the least !

    Working for Land rover I believe there is a fuel pressure sensor at the end of the fuel rail and these are know for the intake fuel pumps to play up.
