The internal pump can display signs of malfunction at a specific rpm and then show no signs of trouble elsewhere in the rev range. This has been documented in a recent LRO. Good luck in getting to the bottom of this.

Still thinking on this and realised that your culprit may well be the in-tank fuel pump.

I highly rate the TD5 ES Auto with either a remap or a PSI power chip, and better breathing by way of silencer replacement and a KN filter or equivalent. This brings the 0-60 time to about 10 seconds or less and dramatically improves the mid range torque to make towing a relaxed affair once it...
