    I'd avoid the plug in performance boosters like the plague, they are not a properly sorted remap but something that fudges the engine sensors to force the engine to compensate for something that has happened...

    As RobA suggests, drive it like you stole it for a day or so and you'll find it becomes more responsive.

    Hi, thanks for this. Are you able to provide any more detail on this fix please. What MY's it applies to, a LR bulletin number.. ?


    Thanks,

    TSBs mentioned: Service Bulletin LS307-003 and LTB00101
    This seems to relate to earlier MYs

    I think more relevant for 8 speed g'box is:
    LTB000545 (at least MY13, not sure other MY's)

    Yes, the one I had applied was the one mentioned by Scott above. You have to specifically complain about it (perhaps the hesitation is a side effect of fuel economy programming; after all, slower take-off means better economy), otherwise the fix is not offered. Can't recall if that was the first or second update I had, as the first one worked for a while, but the problem returned, whereas the second one has been working.

    The Gadget is a non-linear throttle input...

    It does nothing more than make a small throttle input into a larger one...

    The same as pushing the throttle a little further, quicker...

    So the million dollar question that has been on my lips since buying a MY10 D4 .... is why does this still occur and why haven't LR fixed it.


    I rarely get caught out these days but did the other day and it was a very ugly scenario rolling into traffic with absolutely no power for what seems like eternity .


    We're close to 7 years on now for D4s ... it's ridiculous ....
