The Freelander water pumps are supposed to be better quality, anyone tried one of those on their diesel, they are used in the TD4 I have not read or heard of many of those failing.

Same goes for the thermostat in my opinion.

TD4
PEB102470L

As opposed to R40
PEB102470

The warranty on the part is worthless if it fails early as in the OP case, because the cost of having the job done again out weighs the if it fails in a certain time it will be replaced ?

I'll have a look at this option later today. My cdt has its mot tomorrow at the same garage. I always go there for stuff that i'm not confident about doing as I can walk there. I suspect you mean a genuine landrover pump?

Most certainly use a genuine Land rover Freelander one, pop into a dealership but you may well find then on line too, ( Rimmer's maybe or maybe not due to there over costing of parts )

Thanks Arctic. Ive spoken ro a workmate who is into Land Rovers and he is going to get me the details of a Land Rover parts dealer in Matlock he uses regularly. He is a former mechanic and agrees that the L R parts wull be ok.

Been looking at water pumps for my cdt but not sure which of them will be best. Many of them are aftermarket ones. Can anyone recommend a place for a genuine land rover part?

I guess it's more expensive because it is not brit-part

What's the general view on Brit part these days? Last time i looked at them on the landy sites the opinions were to stay clear as the parts appeared to be inferior and prone to early wear.

http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...d.php?t=265949. I made this thread earlier, are landrover parts interchangeable with kv6 v6, same part numbers just with a letter L at the end, and they are cheaper, makes like dayco for the belts and bearmach for the rest and other brands, do you think buying these parts are a good idea? Are they better quality as they are for landrover etc like someone mentioned earlier?

Hi Agree with David steer clear of Brit part in this case, even though they do some decent parts they also churn out some poor ones as well, when you visit these supply sites remember you are always given a choice between products as here below.

But as always we are talking a different price bracket, depends on the person purchasing the product.

Always ask questions before buying, hopefully this should help if seller is reluctant to answer questions stay well away.

I use mister auto alot for parts. Normally the.es site as I'm in Spain. There's a good choice with regards to manufacturers and there is normally always a deal. Today I picked up 2 moog lower arms for €120 delivered to my door. Also the returns policy is fairly painless

However, compare the 2 links above...I'm genuinely shocked at the difference in price even allowing for exchange rates it is still a vast difference.
