Thanks

Assuming you mean your 08 Discovery 3 TDV6 HSE Auto Buckingham Blue and not your heep... It sounds more like a turbo issue to me. Could just be a sticky actuator arm. You really would need to get fault codes read to go beyond guesswork. Suggest an edit on your op, grovel for forgiveness and put a shout out for anyone with an IID tool in your area.

Sorry I mentioned my 08 discovery the only fault code on the engine system is the low fuel pressures. I have a snap on code reader. It takes it a while to log a fault but low power most of the time there is also a lot of very black smoke from the exhaust when pulling a trailer when loaded . Egr valves are blocked off and seem to be mapped out . Fuel consumption is around 26 mpg . Thanks

Check the big intercooler hose for a split. That results in lots of smoke & no power. Thumbs Up

I would guarantee a air leak of some kind for sure, probably intercooler hose as DSL advised.
