| Any idea where I can source this part from? | |
After a bit of a pothole incident I found I have broken this little plastic 'H' bracket that usually sits just behind the nearside front wheel. This means I now have diesel pumping all over the place.
In their wisdom, JLR only sell it as part of a full kit that includes a new low pressure fuel pump and fixing brackets. Has anyone seen these for sale anywhere or have any idea about how I might get a new one?
It looks like it has some kind of vent at the end of the horizontal part of the H. If you can't tell from the photo the H is now in four pieces.
The fuel pump and extras kit (LR038431) is £570.85 whilst the fuel pump (LR023043) itself is £322.94. the extra £247.91 seems rather steep for the fuel pump bracket and other bits I don't really need.
Ironically, I bought a new genuine fuel pump a few weeks ago for my other L405 for £322.94. The £68.78 for the kinked return tube (LR036780) [shown in the photos] isn't too bad but it does make the unwanted fuel pump mounting kit rather expensive.
Is this just profiteering from JLR or do these normally not break?
Thanks for your help.

-> Can I straighten this kink or will it weaken the pipe? I don't need another fuel spraying incident.
