4 Ecodiesel questions

When was the last time you changed out your fuel filter?

Start there, see if power improves.   Then I 'd check my timing belt, as well as where my pump timing is set.

Eco diesels seemed to have really wierd top gearing, not very tall, as I recall?

Anyone care to comment?

It is my understanding that the racers that run the GTI's and such like to get the ECO tranny's because of their gearing.  It is different due to the fact that the ECO was only rated at 58hp I think. Don't have the specs in front of me.
