One end of the pipe let go and it must have hit the road and got caught cos it got ripped off entirely and I ran it over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't had a look under the car yet. The rest of the piping is still intact though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the new bit will pop off. I did some logging and the pipe stayed on. The car was coming on boost very late. I checked the manifold and turbo and they are tight. No error codes. I think the wastegate is stuck partially open but I won't know until I check it tomorrow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rod was just touching the engine mount. A quick adjustment on the bracket fixed it. Here are some pics; Stuck open And shut Don't mind the oil, it is from the leaking oil drain the other day. I really oughta pick up some degreaser and clean it off. Here is my deadly actuator compressor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
