I have a 110 2.5 diesel turbo (not TDI), fairly tidy and runs steady. What should the MPG reach as at present I can only manage 20mpg! No I'm not too heavy footed, also when driving I can hear the turbo working up to half way on the throttle then the last half of peddle movement does nothing.
Any suggestions as to the obvious or more technical I should be looking for?
For example when I've got my head in the engine bay and blipping the throttle (no load) the waste gate does not appear to move at all! Could it be stuck half open? would this cause the apparant lack of throttle response?
Any discussion/education/laughter welcome
