Turbo Delay/Lag ??
Hi all,
I had a test drive of an 07 Auto Disco 3 on Saturday and was a little surprised at the lag between pressing the accelerator and pickup.
2-3 seconds, which seemed a lifetime, is this normal ?
Thanks

There is a lag in the d3. Remapping goes someway to reduce this but it's still there

A 2 - 3 second delay isn't normal, mine certainly doesn't have that sort of delay. It's likely the EGR valves or VGT actuator need attention.GAP IID Pro Multi Vehicle Defender L316 2007-2015 - Discovery 3 - Discovery 4 - Discovery Sport L550 - Freelander 2 - Range Rover Evoque L538 - Range Rover L322 - Range Rover L405 - Range Rover Sport L320 - Range Rover Sport L494 Electrical Fault Diagnostics
Thats definitely not right it needs looking at, but an even more serious thing you need to check on an 07MY is to make sure that the belts and oil pump casing have been done.

Belts hadn't been done and when I questioned them they said they would split the cost with me . I then said goodbye .
