Just got my car back from a Bosch diesel injection specialist place in Stoke - the car had a fuel leak on the IP and needed the seals renewed. This they did and there are no leaks.
However, since I have got the car back, it now only starts on four/five cylinders and takes a bit of revving to run on all six.
Also, the car hangs onto its gears until over four thousand revs before changing up. Then when driving, the slightest pressure on the accelarator and the gearbox kicksdown a gear.
I assume the gearbox issue is due to a vacuum pipe being knocked out. I don't understand the starting though, there is no more air in the fuel and the glow plugs are fine. What have they done to the car???
It is going back on Monday but I haven't great hopes as I doubt they are familiar with the none-injection bits of the car.
Thanks in advance for anyone who has been bothered to read all of this!
