While overtaking on the way to work this morning, it felt like I didn’t have the usual shove as I changed down and accelerated. After a while she seemed ok again, although admittedly the rest of the journey was in slow traffic.
While driving home all seemed ok, even when booting through an A-Road the turbo was doing it’s job.
However, about 20 miles from home I dropped to 4th to overtake uphill on the motorway and….. nothing. No boost whatsoever, just a strange sounding induction noise as I put my foot down.
Moved off onto A-roads and tried accelerating in 2nd…. Definitely no boost. No whistle from the turbo, not wooosh from the waste gate as I change gear.
She’s running smoothly, idles fine, no smoke, no pipes appear to have come off, just no boost! Any ideas guys?
BTW - ’94 CSE 2.0 LPT EcoPower. No intercooler, has a BPC (APC?? Not sure what the correct name is!) valve on the top right side of the radiator.
