hello,
although i have visited this forum many times i have only just decided to register, my problem is after owning a 95 tdi discovery for 7 years i have upgraded to a 2003 td5, and although very happy in almost every way, i am not satisfied with 2 main things;
a: unresponsive, power is'nt their for first third of accelerator , where my old disco was very responsive throughout the gears.
b: fuel economy, averaging little more than 16-17 mpg.
can anyone help?

First off try cleaning your MAP sensor

If that makes no difference, try unplugging yer MAF sensor.

If that still does nothing, try a new fuel filter.

If you let us know what happens (or not) and then we can go from there.
