Hi all
when i first pull away in my TD5 90 it seems to hold back for a few seconds before the engine picks up.Can anybody tell me what might be causing this.Any feedback appreciated.

Have you had many landys before? Diesels tend to lag slightly anyway.

This is my first diesel landy,but it seems to lag and then burst into speed very quickly

Sounds fine to me...at least you know the turbo boost is working..


'Bursts into speed'...snigger...dont hear that a lot on a landy forum

Mine did exactly the same. The MAF sensor was nackered. As soon as I replaced it, it was right as rain. Make sure you buy a genuine one though, the cheap ones on ebay are useless.

If you know someone with a Nanocom, you can check it with that, just to be certain.

Could it just be turbo lag? If you rev it up a bit more when engaging the clutch is it better?

Air flow sensor every time. People fit aftermarket crap and they do not last long. The sensor is oxidising all the time. Pays to have original equipment fitted

Iv had a problem with my td5 90 for a while now. It'll race up to 60 no problems but then it lurches an won't go any further. It's not too much of a problem but just curious... Any ideas?

Got the same sort of problem, it accelerates ok up to a point then seems to lack power. If i continue to try and push it i get a bit of vibration as if the engine is lacking fuel maybe ? Going to check the fuel filter and maf sensor when i get a chance and probably the ecu connector.

maf, mass air flow?
I was wondering if I could be anything to do with me snorkel because it feels like intake buzz when it lurches
