Range Rover fuel systems operate at very high pressures and rely on clean fuel. Contaminated diesel, missed filter changes and long idling all shorten injector life, and a single failing injector can wash a cylinder bore with fuel. Direct-injection petrol engines have their own high-pressure pump and carbon build-up issues.
We test injectors for leak-back and spray pattern, replace high-pressure pumps and fuel rails, fit genuine fuel filters, and clean intake carbon on direct-injection engines with walnut blasting. Fuel tanks, in-tank pumps and level sensors are also repaired here.
Fuel System & Injectors on the Range Rover Velar
The Velar brought Ingenium engines, twin-screen Touch Pro Duo and 48V mild hybrid technology to the range. Its electronics are sophisticated and its Ingenium engines need precise oil care. We know both intimately.
Engines we cover on this model: 2.0 Ingenium P250/P300 petrol, 2.0 D180/D240 diesel, 3.0 P400 MHEV. Production 2017 – present (L560). Faults we see most often on the Range Rover Velar include touch pro duo screen freezing, ingenium timing chain and oil dilution on diesels, 48v mild hybrid battery faults, and each is diagnosed with the model-specific procedure before any parts are recommended.

How we work
Every job begins with a proper diagnosis on the lift and on Land Rover's diagnostic platform. You receive a written report, photos and a fixed price on WhatsApp before any work begins. Genuine or OE-equivalent parts are used, every repair carries a written warranty, and the vehicle is road tested before handover.
Frequently asked questions
How often should the diesel fuel filter be changed?
Every 32,000 km, or annually. It is the cheapest protection for your injectors.
Do injectors need to be coded?
Yes. Each injector has a correction code that must be programmed to the engine control module.
What is walnut blasting?
A method of cleaning carbon from the intake valves of direct-injection engines using crushed walnut shell. It restores lost power and smooth running.
