2007 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Manual Zermatt Silver

Filler neck fuel leak ?

Drat and double drat. Filled tank up and noticed huge pool of diesel on the ground. When l parked up elsewhere afterwards , no leak. So l assume filler neck.

Anyone had one replaced at a garage?

Should have got rid before you promised it to a family member. The fuel is worth more than the car

Does it leak when the pump cuts filling the first time.

Only in Australia do you need to squeeze every last drop in the tank due to distances between petrol stations. Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

Interesting.
I used to do this with a previous vehicle without issues but if I do this with the LR2, it can cause a CEL likely related to the evap cannister; maybe your model year design or emission system design for your region is different but, yes, I would fill it right up if I could!
