Steely Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Hello peeps,Driving home tonight, puts my foot down on a straight boosted up fine. Drove along a bit further no probs either. Went to put my foot down again. I was getting no boost at all (no green light either) when the turbo should be kicking in it just sort of make a noise like a duck (sorry but no other was of describing it) with smoke coiming out the back. No juddering, idles fine but no boost at all.Any advice what might be wrong or where to start looking??Cheers ladsLee Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bucketep91 Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 if its going quack quack id be worried lol just kidding mate.what actuator you running?look at your actuator and see if it is still connected to the wastgate arm on the turbo. sometimes it can come apart if the circlip at the back isnt on properly Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sounds like the BOV is making sucking noises but it just wont spool up.The engine is completly standard so it should just be the normal 1. It's getting a bit dark now to check. I'll have a look at that tomorrow.Cheers for the tip mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
