I’m beginning to think that the engine light on the dash is not working, as it did not come on with the fault that is showing on the computer. I’ll also check tomorrow that it’s working when I first turn the key slightly ��

… I was watching this (thanks STL) but I can’t find a fuel pressure regulator as it’s shown in the video

Unfortunately it doesn’t say the year of his car and I wonder if mine actually does have one or not?
The car in the video has it's fuel filter outside the fuel tank on the underside of the car.
I believe your fuel filter is inside the fuel tank. So the fuel systems are a little different. I think the change started with 2002 models.
So you probably have what they call a closed fuel system. My book says the closed system can not be volume tested the way the car in the video is tested.
says you need special equipment.

But you can pressure test at the fuel rail.
