X type drives smoothly, but no acceleration!- any advice
Hi All
I have a 04 2.0d X type, Yesterday I drove round the M25 and down the M11 doing good speed as usual, but as I joined the A406, I lost acceleration, no dead spots, just a lack of power, engine sound a bit noisy when I tried to accelerate. The car has always had superb acceleration, so it was blatant there was a problem. Same journey home, managed to get up to 70mph but very slowly, but still no acceleration at any time and but no noise this time when I tried to accelerate. The drive was still very smooth. I had put some diesel engine cleaner into the tank before the journey, could it be that? any suggestions would be appreciated.
Many Thanks
