Hi guys, this is my first post and I'm hoping someone can help. I have a 56 plate mk7 SWB T280. About a month ago the turbo blew. I managed to stall it to save the runaway engine. New turbo installed, cleaned out the intercooler and pipe work etc. New oil and filters, ran really well for about a week.
Then very occasionally when say coasting towards a junction it would cut out, on the digital dash where the miles left in a tank would go to a row of dashed lines. It would start straight away again and drive on no problem. At one point for a few days it was doing this at every junction. Then it started to improve all on its own. It went from stalling 90% of the time to stalling say 10% of the time. Whilst this problem improved another problem started. Every now and again it would just lack power, struggle to get any revs up at all. On the motorway you'd be lucky to get 50mph in 5th gear. Then all of a sudden it would run really sweet again. Flying along at 80 odd no problem. I'm not sure these problems are related at all, but both have occurred after the turbo blowing.
Up to now I have changed the EGR valve, cleaned the mass air sensor and changed the clutch switch. Putting the new EGR valve on made the eml come on. I'm waiting on a diagnostic to plug in to see if shows any faults up.
Any information I would be very greatful, thankyou in advance.
