ollie ryan Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 took my car for a drive today and when i accelerate it just seems to rev up. pulls away but feel like the turbo just isnt kicking in and the three lights all come on in the rev gauge.im thinking a boost leak. anyone agree?i destricted the car throught the gears on last weekend and havnt really driven it since so maybe didnt out the hoses back on properly any ideas what to look out for?cheers guys Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rob GT Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Possibility of your clutch slipping? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
durmz Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 sounds like clutch to me buddy!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ollie ryan Posted January 29, 2010 Author Share Posted January 29, 2010 yeah i was thinking that to but the clutch feel totally fine besides this Quote Link to post Share on other sites
durmz Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 when the clutch first starts going it will still feel just fine as it takes torque to make it slip, so when u get into the revs and give it some it will slip. if it was a boost leak u wouldnt be getting all the green lights as the pressure sensor is in the inlet mani.dont drive on a slippy clutch too long, u can hotspot the flywheel making it useless Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Meston Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I've got the same problem mate but it's only when it's cold it happens weird. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
addz Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Could be clutch as mentioned above.Some do it when cold, others do if for a short period and stop then lasting half or so year. All depends on your car Quote Link to post Share on other sites
