Suicidal hesitant set off. Cured!!

Hello all
I changed my sc for a 3.0 diesel in January. I was very disappointed with the throttle response. The vehicle felt like it tried to set off in the wrong gear. you increase pressure on the accelerator and ended up flying off, after a 2-3 second delay.
Also when slowing the vehicle was hesitant to apply power again(as if it was in the wrong gear)
The cure was so simple
I added Wynn's diesel clean extreme. The vehicle was selecting the correct gear, I guess it was my injectors that were bunged up. With no low down power. If any one is having a similar issues it is definitely worth a go for £12.

if you go through euro carparts and put in the SAVE30 code you get 30% off which brings it down to within 40p off this price but its free delivery.

I had a 64000 mile service a week after, including gear box and transfer box oil, but the major difference was due to the cleaner.
I've only had the motor since January and hated it ever since, until now. The torque figures didn't add up, as I was always pushing the vehicle to move. I generally drive very steady, which is usually easy with a vehicle with high torque.
The fuel treatment has transformed the big girl. I even used BP premium fuel since I got her in January, which made little difference.
Now especially after spending a small fortune on service and all drivetrain oils, she is feeling very refined.
But Thumbs Up to the fuel treatment, first time evet one of the snake oils has worked for me MY12 RRS HSE

Forgive me if it's a stupid question but how does this work? I'm not finding my car sluggish but it is 10 years old and for £12 it's worth seeing if it will make any difference... 2007 L320 3.6 TDV8 HSE Java Black

Wales 2012 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Lux Sumatra Black

For the minimum amount required for a tank full of Diesel, one bottle isn't enough for it to do it's job properly,and if you have a bad problem, or not cleaned engine/injectors EGR for a while, they recommend 1x500 size bottle for each 30 litres of diesel fuel, they recommend the tank should be filled with fuel when you use this product, not cutting fuel amount in tank to save money and put in less product, it doesn't work to its full potential.
Basically purchase two bottles for a RRS Sport, to get correct dilution. Whistle John

On the bottle it says 1 bottle to 60 litres, but can use it 1 to 30. I added it to approx just less than 3/4 of a tank. For me it worked very well. I also added it just before a 60 mile motorway journey. MY12 RRS HSE

Gearbox oil is due at 10 years on standard LR schedule. Have you changed it early? Visitor from fullfatrr.com

I did change it early. My old sc suffered drive line shunt and wasn't as smooth as it could be at 100k. So decided to change the gearbox oil earlier to try prevent any damage. Oil for life does not exist as yet. Apparently my transfer box oil was fairly cooked but I had that changed, and just been lazy I had both the diffs done.
The gear change etc is smooth as, and I wanted it all done as you never know the full service history as dealers regularly miss essentials on services. MY12 RRS HSE
