BogMonster Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Could be (but not limited to) split in the intercooler, a split in a different hose, turbo hose collapsed internally, blocked air filter, chipped turbo impeller, cracked manifold.... the list goes on What sort of noise, a whistle, a sort of whooshing compressed air noise, a whine, or what? Are there any other symptoms e.g. loss of power? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there any other symptoms e.g. loss of power? mine had a very high pitched whistle, turned out to be a slight split in the vacuum hose connected to the brake servo. the smaller hose on the 'T' connector located above the servo. don't know what it does but everything worked OK!, quieter now though! gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 that small hose off the vacuum pipe runs the fresh/recycle valve on the heater box. no i dont get why its vacuum driven either, wots wrong with a simple bowden cable like the rest of the heater?

grumpy2 Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 it's a pity that the heater motor isn't as simple! either off or on, no speed control, I guess the resistors have gone but can't be bothered stripping the dash to find out. gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Gary If I rememebr correctly you can get to all of the heater stuff if you drop the passenger glove box. The heater motor is in the passenger footwelll and its only 3 bolts to take it out. HTH Ivan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
