Once again I look to you guys to help solve my problem. Again I have travelled to relatives down south and the Freelander is playing up in a big way.
Driving on the motorway at 60+ it starts coughing and spluttering. Almost like it has a misfire. It looses a bit of power and wont go over 50. No matter what you do with the throttle it still seems to miss, then it will pick up again.
ant see any black smoke and cant see any boost hoses leaking, the RAC guy couldn't find any fault codes.
I have read the 'loss of power at 70 thread' but they dont seem to mention it spluttering and missing. Does the turbo solenoid cause the engine to appear to missfire or is it just black smoke and a lack of power?
Any help is very welcome as I have a round trip of 30 miles for the next 4 days then a 280 mile trip home and at the moment I can limp at 50 but that's about it.
Thanks
