As above, already drained the tank and cleaned filter, changed fuel pipe to the pump. As soon as I drive into the crop the engine dies, sometimes below 2000rpm.

Blocked it twice on rape as it didn't have the power to push the green stalks through at night[emoji26]

Anyone had similar problems?

Being an electronically managed engine, there may be fault codes for low rail pressure or commanded v target rail pressure - that would give you direction to go chasing a fuel supply issue.

Does it have an electric lift pump ? Even if its buzzing, is it pumping ample fuel ??

If no codes along those lines, check all the intake boots for splits- is there any whistling with her running - if the map sensor doesn't see boost pressure because of an air leak, it wont increase fuelling.. Air filter is clean and intake hose isn't collapsing etc etc????
