Hey! I have a 2000 land rover discovery, 4.0 v8! Its acceleration is terrible! When I am entering a highway, I accelerate soo slow! What is the problem? And what should I get done that is not too expensive so it will make a big differance! Someone told me an air intake and exhaust system would help? Please tell me what I should get done so it will help my rovers acceleration! Thanks!

Start by replacing air filter and having a tune up. Is the CEL showing on the dash display?

No. I have it on 26" rims tho! And the service engine soon light is on! The filter looks fine! Should I still replace it?

You need to have the car plugged into a diagnostic computer to retrieve the fault codes and repost with full codes for more assistance
