I have replaced fuel filter in range rover and i cannot get air out of diesel fuel? and it now not starting straight away

timing might be off, diesels are very sensitive to timing. or could be air in the fuel somewhere. i like to clean the air out by loosening fuel lines one at a time on each injector and tighting after fuel comes out while someone else tries to start it or while its running really rough from one cylinder not getting fuel.

does it restart again? if so sounds like a fuel delivery/system pressure problem.is it petrol or diesel? change the fuel filter which ever it is, first thing to do. check for fault codes. and check the pressure if its a petrol,

Sounds like bad starter, solenoid contacts worn out

Perhaps bleeding the fuel lines...air in diesel lines can do this a can build up in filters

If diesel u have air trapped in system or air leak just give it a tow round the block till she starts .when stated keep foot half way down to bleed system for about 1 min all done

I take it that the diesel filter has been changed and the air filter.

The cheapest solution would be to check the priming pump on the hand primer near the diesel pump. Prime the pump and then try to start it - does this work? These things sometimes leak air.

Another would be to get your compression tested (although that should already have been done.)

immobiliser also cuts starter motor so probably ok i would check the fuel pump is delivering enough fuel take off fuel filter put container under it and put ignition on you should get a strong flow

hi i have a range rover p38 2.5 diesel it starts but wont drive when you put in drive

hello,good day,check all line for diesel leaking, or your fuel flow back to your tank, try to check your fuel filter,renew if necessary,ty

I would start by looking for the valve on the fuel rail (or at the filter housing), if you disconnected the fuel pipe from the filter feed you will have a lot of air in the system (and diesels do not like air in the feul system) you will need to have someone crank the motor over while you push in on the schrader valve to release the air out of the system until you get fuel to flow steady out of that port (this may take a short period of time), then you should be able to start the vehicle... would also recommend replacing the fuel filter as well. Hope this helps.
