« on: April 22, 2008, 16:56:21 »
Driving round today my 300 Tdi has developed an strange fault all of a sudden the revs drop off for a second and Check Engine flashes up on the dashboard.Never experienced anything like it with a Disco my old 200 seemed bomb proof compared to this thing.I,m starting to regret buying it.Any one any ideas ?.

Check engine light :-. that sounds a bit new-fangled.  You must have an ECU somewhere in the gubbins and my only thought would be to start with that.  Some sort of diagnostic might be in order.
