Right then, some may have read before Ive had lots of trouble with this car. It now has a reconned engine and a refurbed turbo, the turbo actuator was fecked and the turbine housing was cracked.
Its been running great since all the work was carried out but and old fault is back, we thought it was a sticky wastegate but its now doing it with a new turbo?
Symtoms are driving along on a constant throttle and you fan feel the torque drop! revs and speed dont change but you can feel the omph go and it wont pull past 4000rpm, no EML. When this happens and you put your foot down its flat, no power, the turbo whistles but sod all else.
The thing is,if you drop down a gear and give it some itll pull hard all the way to the red line (I only went to 6500 but Im guessing itll keep going)
Any ideas guys as Im at a total loss?
