I saw a TD auto advertised a year and a half ago so it must be possible. A bit of a nail though i expect

Im sure a TD auto will work but I find even the Tdi is a little under powered so I would be wairy.

Thats cos your used to having a proper engine. I got the TDI auto after running a 4.0 Jeep and it took some getting used to. No problem offroad but a bit of a b****r on the motorway.

I know what you mean!! I was running a V8 auto. TDi auto was fine till I used it to tow the Hybrid. Blimey was it slow!!! Now putting ther same engine and box in the hybrid buts it off road only. Going to intercool upgrade the Disco to see how it helps.
