ASTRA-MK1-TURBO

Haha I will take it and get it plugged in and see if anything is stored in the fault codes. if not its probs just me!! cheers mate

Yeh cheers for that will have a look at the egr!! it had a fuel leak up top so I replaced the leak off pipes and that seems to have cured that, was hoping that could have been the problem air in fuel etc... I know they spin full time but they kick in at a certain rev point more noticably if you know what i mean? IT could just be me not used to it after my alfa jtd as that was straight on boost at about 2000rpm! and with this being a straight 6 there will be a big difference from the 5 pot alfa. could do with having a drive in another apart from mine to find out unless anyone on here can enlighten me where theirs kicks in?? Cheers

Hi, I have a 2000 330d that i have not owned long and just have a couple of questions that you may be able to help me with..... It seems to be pretty flat under 2700rpm and then go's like hell when the turbo kicks in, should the turbo be spooling up lower in the rev range and if this is normal for them is there any way of getting it to come in lower?? It is fine if you rev it hard through the gears but oviously this is not always convenient haha!! Any help would be greatly appreciated, Cheers Graham
