How to change the fuel pump on a Range Rover P38?

The only thing I would do differently is to leave the 4 egr bolts in place as the bottom left can be a little fiddly and opt to remove the two bolts on the exhaust pipe and the intake from the intercooler in the front of the egr and remove the plastic intake distribution and egr together. Should save a few minutes too.

Why is my fuel pump not working on my Range Rover?

In addition, I had doubts that the pump was actually working due to my cold starting problems. The reason for dread is that usually the whole fuel tank has to be drained, and the fuel tank removed from under the car – which results in a lot of shuffling around on the cold concrete under the car.

Why do I need to change the fuel pump?

It needed changing as the fuel gauge was sticking, and giving me an inaccurate reading – and the fuel gauge sender is on the same unit as the pump – so the whole assembly has to be changed. In addition, I had doubts that the pump was actually working due to my cold starting problems.
