The story so far ,
I get a call yesterday from the other half "the berlingo (1.6hdi 07) has lost power and a light has come on what should I do" I confirmed that it was the engine light and that there where no funny noises and got her to call out green flag,the green flag man came and read the code it was the EGR valve stuck he reset it and all seemed well, she carried on no problem untill the journey home when she lost power again and the light came on this time it was recovered and dropped home.
I tested it last night and all seemed well no light and going like a rocket
tested it this morning and all was well untill I tried it up a link road and when I got to about seventy and still accelerating there was a funny noise maybe twice and then the power went you could rev it ok in neutral but no real power when going, got home but the power never recovered even after stopping and restarting. Any thoughts ? I have got a nasty feeling it is the turbo but If I am honest I dont really have a clue.
I have been having a think
does the egr valve only open at 70 and if it was stuck would I loose boost down the exhaust pipe?
