Hi

I have a 2005 rangerover vogue diesel, and recently it's started to shake when in low revs however when the revs increase the problem disaperes.when the shaking is at its worst and I accelerate the car sounds terrible and produces a fan like blowing noise and this results in a slight loss in power and rather sluggish acceleration.ive replaced the fuel filter and oil with no change. I've tried several diagnostic tools and the build in dash one with no error / fault codes. My first idea was a faulty injector ? But surely that would show a diagnostic code ? And wouldn't be as intermittent as my fault. :confused:

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks
 
I believe it is due to the fact that your car has become frightened of something that has escaped your notice. At low revs it feels as if the threat may close in on it rapidly and it wishes to escape with utmost haste. When you give it the gas, it calms down a bit.

Anything else??
 
It was a landrover only diagnostic tool that the garage used still with no errors :(

I can't understand the loss of power and the terrible sound the engine makes ? But on the move it's hardly noticeable it's just the blowing like noise that comes from the engine bay when the car has lost power and on a bad day ?

And hehe west slope rover +1 for the humour :)
 
Yeah I'm going to check the piping in the morning because after a quick look under the hood the hissing / blowing noise was coming from the left of the engine bay (where the turbo is)
