My idea would have been to actually backtrack what you did. You replaced the timing belt, i guess it was going fine beforehand. So it seems obvious thats what the problem was,

my thoughts on the prob.

John, the car was going fine for a while post fitament , then started to slowly get more and more sluggish..The Dyno figures showed less than 45kw at wheels , and that was the vehicle running rich as i had noticed fuel consumtion had gone up a fair bit. Once tuned 49.8kw isn't too bad for 300tdi Disco at the wheels.


all in all I'm really happy with the way it drives now , next thing on list is Diesel-Gas
