Unhappy my car hesitates when I punch it



Hi everybody, I got a 2004 land rover discovery se II great car but all of the suden started acting weird a couple of days ago, when I gas it it hesitates and acts as if has no power to burn the gas, I check the exhaust, only water, I check the battery, to me it seems a little low voltge, at 12v, alternator is chargeing at 14.5.
It feels as if is passing water to the oil, but is clean, a friend ask me to reset the computer but it didnt do a thing, has anybody had this problem or something similar before, thanks if you reply
thanks in advance for ay help, thanks and best regards

chris

Has it been serviced? Are you running premium fuel?

Chris, I am having a hard time understanding your tests, how do you test the exhaust?
Your charging system is at the upper level, this is good and has nothing to do with you performance.
How does it feel like it is passing water to the oil, and how would this show up or caquse your problem?
Was your service engine light on, if not, there was nothing to reset.
As already asked, how many miles on it, has it been tuned including wires and what octane gas are you burning?

Has it been serviced? My 04 hesitated to the point it would almost die when trying to kick down a gear, but got all service up to date and been fine since.
