Hi Mate,

Fuel sedimenter? Mate of mine did some work on my 200tdi Disco few months back. Fuel sedimenter was full of mold.

Doubt it will make much difference but something to improve. I hear unscrewing the unit is the best. I drained the water out myself from the drain plug, did not catch the mold issue.

Mine comes and goes with the power, will be interested to see what the folks have to say.

Best of luck....

dirty intercooler,collapsing hoses,tyre sizes can make a difference

i changed like the top hose that goes onto the turbo looks like it had a split no difference i've heard of collapseing hose's how does this happen if's theirs boost ? i'll clean the intercooler it was a bit oily looken

The 200 Tdi I had had fuel filter/sediment catch against the firewall on drivers side.

My 200 Tdi had a preference for BP fuel.
