mattyboy Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 guys! could you have a look at the attached picture, the pipe circled has an oil spray around it and looks actually wet with oil on one end. Sorry about the quality of the picture its all my phone could come up with!!! Could this be the problem for my boost leak? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattyboy Posted May 20, 2007 Author Share Posted May 20, 2007 ok ive replaced a few hoses now... and im still getting the same problem. It boosts at 0.6 1st turbo, and when the second comes online it raises to 0.7. could this be a vsv problem? failing that it looks like a trip to my local jap garage!

mattyboy Posted May 22, 2007 Author Share Posted May 22, 2007 ok reset the ecu, had a lumpy low idle for a bit... thats sorted itself out now... i took it down to Euro Spec 2000 in Normandy just outside Guildford. Left it with them, they had a look at it and believe its pointing towards either a worn turbo or a very minor boost leak. They couldnt do alot with it because i had to pick it up I tell ya though... they are real nice guys super friendly, said i could pop it down one night and they will go through it with me. soooooo im going to buy up some silicone hose and replace the turbo piping... lets see eh. next on the list is the blimmin active spoiler, its not working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
