2011 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 USW Stornoway Grey

changing a fuel filter

IIRC i read somewhere that its a bit of PITA and not as straight fwd as would be expected - not sure if i remember correctly but i think it mentioned needing a program on testbook (?) to run a priming program.

is it that bad or can you do one the same as a td5? Cheers

The specialist that changed my fuel filter said you dont need a priming tool or anything else as long as you keep the new filter full of fuel, i.e dont add air to the system

2007 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 XS CSW Tonga Green

Do Land Rover offer any courses on field maintenance?

It would be good to get them to show us how to keep the Puma running without many specialist tools.

I might ask them unless anyone knows of a course. One that started out as a 2.4 TDCi 110 XS
