Had the wierdest of drives into work this morning.
Everything was well until I accelerated onto a roundabout and the disco just revved a little then chocked up, lift off throttle and lovely tickover. Had to limp onto the works carpark until I had a chance to look at it.
When I got a chance at lunchtime it seemed to rev up ok so I put it down to a gremlin, probably electrical and due to the heavy rain the hight before.
However, when I came to leave later in the day it started ok and began the journey home ok but then went all chocked up again.
I rummaged about and eventually found a rather squashy turbo hose onto the intercooler.
I took the hose off and then drove home at max 40mph.
I now need a new hose - strangely it appears to be the internal lining of the hose has delaminated.
