keancy Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Went for meet round Cornwall and Devon today which was brill but on route home, Paul was driving and he floored it, hit quite some leptons and there was a "Puff" noise (no smoke) from Engine what I can only discribe as a sound like a missfire really. After that we seem to have lost a lot of Power and the car seems reluctant to change from 3rd up to 4th. It just feels as if something is restricting it. Hope we haven't blown a Turbo? Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keancy Posted February 10, 2008 Author Share Posted February 10, 2008 Hope that's sorted it folks. Was great meeting you two. Pleasure was all ours too. The Car is fine and dandy now too, had a hose pop off so nothing to drastic. Thank goodness Happyness is restored in my house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
