christ... we would be changing our gearboxes more often than our underwear!
I would have thought- different injectors, obviously an ecu remap, uprated turbo and intercooler- what about a bolt on supercharger
haha who cares !
got the remap.... it works wonders
the gearbox loves it, holds gears for longer = less gear changes

I'm getting one of those soon- could do with a bit more power, what with all the hills round here.
On the modding point- I am pretty sure years ago a mate of my dads had a 3.0 diesel 5 series which had been heavily modded- with something like 350hp. God knows what had been done to it.
My merc with the infamous om606 diesel can be modded to 450 bhp- and then stuck in a Volvo-

You get Sealey leak off test kit for around 40 quid on eBay does 6 cylinders,or can make your own but will have to source the push in ends that hold leak off pipes to injector, don't want to start messing with your original pipes if you don't have too,always a handy tool to have lying around,

Thanks yes that is helpful! Took all the covers off today, changed air filter, fuel filter and thoroughly cleaned EGR valve- was pretty coked up. Took a nosey at the crankcase breather filter, not very dirty but will replace it with the cyclone variety at some point.
Tried upclipping the injector cables one at a time with the engine running to see if there was any difference. Couldn't really be sure- I think a leak off test is needed. Cheapest I can find a kit is about £100!

Get rid of that EGR all together and fit a bypass
Engine runs much better once bypassed
