A sticking EGR will usually be accompanied with excessive smoke.

The symptoms you have mentioned suggest to me that you need a new fuel lift pump.

If you get a replacement make sure it is a quality unit such as delphi.

If there's exhaust smoke, it could be the turbo hoses delaminating internally.

The symptoms sound similar to a sticking EGR. It is simple to remove and blank off.

Dear all,

Please could one of you fine people offer some suggestions to solve the following problem on my 300TDI Discovery 1:


Some days ago, the Disco started developing the following fault:

Was running fine / Still starts up and ticks over fine / but ...when driving with engine under any kind of load, vehicle starts losing power / spluttering / kangaroo juice symptoms.

I have tried the following without success:

Alternative fuel source
New fuel filter
Cleaned fuel pipes
Cleaned fuel lift pump

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
