restomad Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Hi folks, My 1996 1.8td mondeo estate feels like it is down on power, struggling especially up hill, now she is a big old beast and getting on now, but still is there any common things to check/replace that may be causing this, it might be just me, i usually nip round in a 2.3 16v, so obviously quite a difference, and its an estate, which i am not used to, any ideas? Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ffoxy Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Usual suspects are air filter, fuel filter or EGR if fitted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ffoxy Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Have a listen for any hissing when the engine is revved as well, it's been known for pipes associated with the turbo to split or even collapse internally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
