Tdv8 loss of power and black smoke

Hey guys. A Land Rover in my family is a bit sick. I'm just looking for advice before it gets dropped to the dealer.

It's starts and runs fine. But it struggles to get past 60mph. When u reach 60 its like you have an anchor dragging behind you...and it's like a screen for a James Bond movie with the smoke (jet black smoke).

Any info from ye guys would be brill.

The two S shaped pipes running from the top of the intercooler to the engine. Removed by releasing a couple of jubilee clips. Dead easy repair. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Yes indeed !!
Mine was cracked. ( not easy to see with al the wires and stuff )
I replaced this part some weeks ago my self.
It's really a pain in the a** to remove / repair.

Bought a OEM part from LR for +- 300 euro's.
