First post, enjoying seeing the knowledge here!
Working through the various issues with my TD5 purchase that has 129k miles on it.
First noticed the waste gate might be sticking because there was a lull between changing gears as power dropped off and picked up, lubricated the pivot and that went away.
Then found when going up a hill and going to high revs in second then changing to third, all power is lost, engine continues to run pushes out clouds of unburned atomised fuel that you can smell and smoke, then if you turn the ignition on and off it restores to normal.
So far I have swapped the MAF sensor for a new one.
EGR valve and pipes have been deleted by previous owner.
Reading with interest about collapsed hoses, but the intake hose to the turbo is solid plastic nothing to collapse.
Wondering about the MAP sensor?
Have found oil getting to the ECU but not in it, so swapping the injector loom pretty soon.
Any thoughts to what might be the problem chaps?
