    Default Slow to pull away - dangerously slow to pull away (150cdti auto)

    Tried searching......

    My 150cdti auto Sig is slow to pull away & i mean seriously sersiously slow to the point where it's dangerous if i were to pull out in front of another car.

    Any ideas where to start?

    If its only slow until the turbo kicks in it sounds like an egr fault, if it's slow all though the rev range it sounds like a blocked dpf
