Please, guys, I need help.
I bought my Freelander 2 2011 TD4 (240k KM) one month ago. It was running well but now when accelerating from a standstill, you can literally flatten the pedal to the floor and after 3-4 seconds the engine responds, but not at all like normal. The turbo never seems to spin up, all the way up to 4500RPM. If I then leave the car off for an hour or so, it usually restarts without the acceleration problem. I went to my local mechanic, he couldn't find any issues. No fault codes or lights, it is also an intermittent problem.
I wanna travel in one week but I don't like the idea of leaving like this, I am fearful it may lead to a bigger worse problem.
Anyone can help me?

Yes it is quiet

Other forums to look at

power loss - Freelander Forum - LR4x4 - The Land Rover Forum (https://forums.lr4x4.com/topic/101200-power-loss/)

When was it serviced? What does the air filter look like?
If it improves on restart, then not split turbo hose.
Any lights on dash?
Maybe try a Land Rover independent mechanic.
