I have posted about my disco and its under poweredness before but now im certain there is a problem.

It would seam that the turbo it not always cutting in, its as if I need to put my foot down a bit more than I think I should need to' then all of a sudden it is infinatly more responsive and there is a definate feeling of power as I drive. This is very confusing, at first I thought the waste gate was stuck open thus loosing boost but now im not so sure. Any ideas?

D1 or D2? cos they're quite different when it comes about engine management

Thanks anyway.

The disco is running ok today the turbo is cutting in, I have only done 12 miles though. It is a very frustrating problem.

does the disco have a manual injector pump with throttle cable or or is it the drive by wire electric pump?

check the rubber/ plastic hose from the wastegate to the injector pump for any cracks ,splits or kinks . i had a similar problem and the hose was damaged
