Can anybody offer some basic guidance.
Coming home from Dolgelleau into Bala, overtook a slower driver and just as I got alongside, I heard this pop and a long hiss as if something had burst and was being let down. I'm danm sure it's somwhere the turbo wastegate as no black smike appeared. Still drove OK, apart from when I pressed the go pedal whereon there was a rising hiss as revs built up and power was way down. Nursed the car home but, once on the drive and with no load on the engine, there's only a feint whistle from around the turbo. Any ideas?
