The time has come to sort out the w124 2.5 turbo diesel. It has extremely poor
acceleration. When dead cold it has a little better performance, although it
surges when accelerating cold. After it warms up, the surging is gone, it
just has NO pickup. I mean 0-30 mph in 12 seconds, 0-60 in 32
Is the turbo kicking in? But with mine, filters were the first pace to
start. Once I had a dirty turbo/exh crossover pipe and it had to be cleaned
to get turbo to spool.

First you need to check to make sure the turbo is turning at all, then
make sure the boost lines are intact and that the overboost valve is
not stuck open or blown.
That car is VERY slow with no turbo or added fuel. Diesel purge won't
do a thing if you have no boost or no boost signal.
2.5 turbo diesel. It has extremely poor acceleration.
Check turbo boost, at the ALDA. (Or equivalent.)

You are probably wasting your time. You either have a vacuum leak (which causes
turbo to vent boost), or the eds has put it in limp mode which also vents boost
