my p38 is currently really down on power, all was fine until I went to do an overtake and it was as flat as a pancake, and the check engine light came on.
it revs fine when standing still,but the round engine breather on the side of the air intake is loose on both sides and won't fix back in. also every minute or so when running you can hear air going back through the air intake and a mini explosion in the air filter box????
there is also tiny specs of oil coming from the exhaust when first started and the intercooler pipes were pretty gunged up, could this be linked?
before it went wrong there was a whistling sound when driving but that has now dissapeared
and to top it off the radiator blew a tiny hole at the same time (it had previously been repaired badly so I guess it was just a matter of time), but it never overheated.
any help would be great.
