I am not fully clued-up about PCP having never (nor ever will) done it, but it's the finance company's car right now, I would suggest.
Assuming it is eventually sorted and running, then the differe ... |

I had a similar issue and ended up cutting the OSF door striker (handle cable had snapped so it wouldn't open but I could enter using the key on the NSF door). Made a bit of a mess though, mainly beca ... |

Buy the latest revision. The mileage is irrelevant. |
Looking for advice please |

Just enjoy it and move on with your life. If/when it fails, deal with it then.
I don't understand why you start a new thread with two existing ones on the same subject. |

I wonder if it is the HPFP? It seems louder on the left but it is difficult to say if the video is not a true reflection of sound.
Has it been run down to a very low fuel level on a regular basis? |

I am not aware of the intercooler gasket, but the EGR cooler is on top of the V under the oil cooler.
Tricky but I would DIY it with new EGR gaskets unless it is really cracked then I'd source a ne ... |

I agree with 4RRS. It does sound rather odd. Head gaskets are pretty robust on these in my limited time on the forum. |

It needs a minimum of 150 BAR to start and 300 to idle (I think). The pressure port at the filter has to be in the range 4-7 BAR.
I also have a cranking, non-starting car so I am watching with inte ... |

I normally use Mann filters but I don't think they make a fitment for the 4.4 TDV8.
It does if it is the same as an L322

Sounds as though the specialist didn't do a very good job - sadly a regular occurrence in the workshops of today.

What's your equipment for the connection to the fuel f ... |
