    Got my new TD5 - couple of questions...

    You can't really go wrong with a genuine LR service at a dealers, the only thing against them is the price and, as with all workshops (indy and dealer), in the not so genuine ones, the eagerness of the service advisor or technician to add unnecessary work onto the bill. People like Kwik Fit are...

    2.5td or 2.5tdi

    A friend of mine fitted a 300TDi turbo and an uprated intercooler to his 200TDi which made it go well. He did them as separate jobs so he could see what did what performance wise. might be worth a try
