Right Folks
Just looking for a plan of action to see what the story is with the car, at present the issue is a seemingly hit or miss boost issue, feels ok, then feels like its lacking boost?
If its like your not getting full boost is that on the 1st turbo or both? as this happened me it was like as if i was getting half boost and then it would just kick in all of a sudden. in my case it was a vacuum problem.
Im hooking up a boost gauge to see what were running on mon or tuesday.
When I get the results ill let you know, but im looking to see what I could be looking at changing, fixing, replacing.
If its primary turbo not boosting - What do I start with
If primary is ok but secondary is the issue where do I start?
I read on uklegacy forum of a guy who recons the solenoid box? Worth doing?
Few guys say it is worth doin.
Could a leaky gasket into turbo 2 cause issues? We noticed a bit of oil burning off around turbo 2. yet to be looked at closely.
I really would appreciate any info as at the moment im swamped with what to do or where to start!
