Frequently asked questions

What does the fuel temperature sensor do on a 2.2 TDCi Defender?
The fuel temperature sensor measures the temperature of the fuel in the fuel system on the Defender 2007-2016 2.2L TDCi Puma diesel. It reports fuel temperature to the ECU so injection quantity and timing can be compensated for changes in fuel density.
Where is the fuel temperature sensor located?
The fuel temperature sensor is fitted at the fuel injection pump on the 2.2L TDCi Puma diesel engine in the Defender. It reads fuel temperature at the pump before injection.
What are the signs the fuel temperature sensor is failing?
A faulty fuel temperature sensor on the 2.2 TDCi Defender typically triggers a fault code, poor cold or hot running, or reduced fuel economy as the ECU loses accurate density compensation. A drifting sensor reading is the usual cause.
How do I confirm this fits my Defender?
This fuel temperature sensor fits the Defender 2007-2016 with the 2.2L 16V Puma TDCi diesel (122PS), from VIN CA000001. Use your VIN to confirm the engine and build before ordering.
