Is your turbo screaming for its life? When did you last change your fuel filter?

Wastegate creeping?

Does it smoke?
RE: lost boost and now cant get it back - Piggy - 14-04-2013
^^^^if it doesnt...fueling would be my bet
RE: lost boost and now cant get it back - sparkyboi001 - 15-04-2013
it smokes when flat chat going up a hill or summin fuel filter is what 10miles old i was thinking actuator as it has no more thread left on the arm
i can hear my turbo whistling checked turbo no play in it spins nice and freely no nasty sound

Dose it feel like you got no boost? Not a faulty boost gauge is it?
RE: lost boost and now cant get it back - Piggy - 15-04-2013
does this have anything to do with your other huge fueling issue maybe?!?!?
RE: lost boost and now cant get it back - sparkyboi001 - 16-04-2013
hahah no got boost can feel the pull and still spins in second but its gone lol ;(
RE: lost boost and now cant get it back - Piggy - 16-04-2013
so no play, makes no bad sounds, still pulls hard yet you think your turbo has gone?
RE: lost boost and now cant get it back - Chris_90 - 16-04-2013
if it still pulls hard look at boost gauge or try the hose that goes to the gauge
RE: lost boost and now cant get it back - Piggy - 16-04-2013
I would seriously sort out your fueling issues first
RE: lost boost and now cant get it back - sparkyboi001 - 16-04-2013
fueling sorted now backed off the fuel because of the black smoke but yer no noises nothing just dont have the boost there im gna check the boost gauge pipes later just to ask where has everyone put there piping to go into the car ???

Theres a hole in the bulkhead behind the master cylinder and behind the battery but lower down on the bulkhead - thats the one i used.
