Hi All
Hope you can help, since July 2010 my 1997 300tdi Discovery has been steadily getting louder with a "tappet" sound" this has also gone worse recently by a wheezing sound which seems to be coming from the air filter. I have took it to the local garage who say it may be a valve or valves. The estimate for the job far exceeds the value of the vehicle.
Any one any ideas for this problem
It starts ok
It runs ok but seems under powered and sluggish under 40mph after this it
runs ok,
No excessive smoking
This all started after the mot in July, when the emissions test required the engine to be revved within an inch of its life!!!
Many Thanks in anticipation
