[ok when i say it hardly moves , as in it wont go forward with any urgency makes pulling out onto a road quite the experience but it is definateley going through all the other gears o.k once it hits 2- 3000 revs it's away like a normal day, as for the mechanic i will be checking what he's put in it and how much as i said the car i think is not at throw away stage yet, thanks for your reply.

Hi i'm new to all this so be gentle! i have a xantia T.D T-reg and he hardly moves when you first put your foot down once he's up to speed theres no probs it changes up through the gears and seems to be fine have had a mechanic check the level in the box as it's a sealed unit ( firdt time i've come accross that!) and he put more in but the same result, any ideas would be appreciated as the rest of the car is good and would hate to lose it over a niggly problem like this, cheers, Richard
