Hi All,

New to the site and have just purchased a MY10 RRS TDV8 Luxury from the auctions.

Always a risk when buying at auction but so far luckily all good except for going into limited performance when throttle is planted.
Accelerates fine and quite strongly thru the gears up to about 3qtr throttle but plant it and it seems to bog down and then goes into warning/limp mode.

Have seen on the interwebs it may be fuel pump problem but was hoping for some help/advise from locals with similar experiences

Cheers

We dont exactly trip over TDV8's around here,,( mores the pity)

but there are a few, both 3.6 and 4.4,,

kilometers? service history(hopefully)?

Sticky turbo actuator is another possibility.
