I accidentally stalled my bravo in top gear which resulted in damage to dynamic flywheel .
Flywheel and clutch replaced.
Now lumpy when starting and pinks like a petrol when under load at low revs otherwise still pulls well.
Have replaced timing belt.
Looked at by recognized fiat dealer.
Code reader by them and others shows no problem.
Talked to a diesel shop we deal with and they state it will be quite a job to check.
Any suggestions appreciated.

I did have a 1.9td Fiat Doblo some time ago, but from memory is that the one that the crank position sensor is run close to the flywheel?
If so is it possible the clearance between the two has been affected.
If possible to alter depth I would move it to touch the flywheel and then pull back about 1mm, this is a guess so check to see if any more accurate information available. This is an AI result on search, it seems to confirm my thoughts, either that or we are both wrong.;)
"AI Overview
https://support.google.com/websearch?p=ai_overviews&hl=en-GB
The clearance between the crankshaft position (CKP) sensor and the flywheel reluctor ring should be around 1mm +/- 0.4mm. This gap is crucial for the sensor to accurately read the crankshaft's position. If the gap is too large, the sensor may not detect the reluctor ring teeth, leading to misfires or other engine problems. Conversely, if the gap is too small, the sensor might be damaged or the reluctor ring might be damaged by the sensor. "
