Hello chaps,
Wonder if anyone could help. Just before Christmas my 1.8 Connect started to lose power and then monster rattles. Initially found the EGR cooler pipe sheared so thought woo hoo. Did a quick fix whilst i get a new one and the smoking is worse. Rattle now stopped. I am thinking its the turbo I wonder if I can check it (my boat one you can take off the inlet and put your fingers into the blades) without taking it off ? And secondly can I remove it without taking the manifolds off? I had a wet belt break a year ago and hated the van after that job due to it being so blooming tight at the rear. The white smoke is not steamy it more smells of fuel.
Any advise appreciated and HNY
Col.
