I recently bought a cdti to save it from the scrapyard and while fixing MOT failures ( brake pads, discs, handbrake, rear jacking point and number plate lights) I also fitted a new air filter, viton O rings, silicone intercooler hose from Jules, cleaned the EGR and intake manifold, oil and filter and fitted the correct fan with new brushes. It's now passed it's MOT and pulls well up to 3000 RPM then it struggles to rev any more. Is this normal for a diesel? I've had the 1.8 and still have my ZT190 so can't really compare it with the others.
