  12. I think the actuators died again second one I've fitted ... Second hand one was the last one . The wastgate is moving very easily etc gonna try hunt another actuator
  13. What can cause this ?? I've checked the pipes no leaks . Turbo pipes all good . Wastegate set to stock length and is a known good second hand unit fitted after mine have up the ghost from overboosting new vacume pipes etc still boosting 20+psi and not really going that good considering . Been told could be oil seal ? The turbine has no play in it feels tighter than most recon units I get in work !

  17. Ok having issues with temperature gauge + fuel gauge on my 200tdi disco(full disco loom / clocks in a lwt) I earth out the sender wire and the clocks do nothing . there is continuity along the length of the wire to the block @ the clocks . I have a smiths gauge also that i put a 12v feed to and when earthed it shoots up(as it should) but when connected to the temperature sender(brand new) it doesnt register anything, Could someone please help me here I am guessing there is a Live feed damaged somewhere or a earth ? rev counter / speedo / all warning lights work . does any one have a diagram / lay out for the 2 blocks that connect into the rear of the clocks .
  18. can any one tell me what each block does on the rear AKA what colour wire in each block is what trying to check continuity on the temperature gauge wire as when i earth it it doesnt shoot up stays at bottom and tried 3 sets of clocks in it .,
