turbo

Hi all, Recently had some trouble with my van. EML started flashing and it seemed as though power was restricted. Turned off and started up again, all fine for 30 seconds and then same again. Had it diagnosed and this is the fault description: 'DPF clamp and gasket (the one to the turbo) is...

Evening all. The bus has been sat for about a week, rolled back and fourth a few times to access the garage, but not used. Tonight I took her out for a drive to fill her up ready for a long drive and as I went from 1st - 2 nd, it sounded to back fire and I lost any real power. She’d drive, but...

Hi all, So on the way down to Cornwall last week, got as far as Exeter, van went in limp home mode with an all mighty screech coming from under the bonnet. Managed to get her off quickly at the next service station and rang the RAC. This isn't thread about how poor they were (they left the Mrs...

Hi, I hope some can help me identify a problem with my van that occurred yesterday. We set off for a 4-day break yesterday with the caravan in Wales and whilst traveling along the A55 and we had to make an emergency stop, the van appeared to lose power whilst going uphill at the same time...

Hi Everyone, I have a problem with my Sports line T6 on a 68 plate. While travelling on the motorway the van went into limp mode (40-50mph) once I got home and restarted it wouldn’t go any faster That walking pace. I took it to a garage I normally use, they told me it was the Dpf filter and...

Evening all, I was down @BognorMotors yesterday having my revo stage 1 and tvs map done and the engineer advised me that my turbo was bit on the noisy side and could possibly be on its way out. I have a 2016 t6 2.0 150ps! My question is are there any upgraded turbos I could be looking for or...

Hi all, First post, sorry to start with a disaster. And sorry in advance if I get terminology wrong - not mechanically competent at all. Love my SWB Caravelle 2L DSG. 2016 reg, had some minor issues with DPF needing regen and a replacement EGR before. But nothing as big as now - might not be a...

Evening, Had an intermittent fault in my euro 6 150 for a couple of months but, yesterday was really bad. The van seems to lose boost in hot weather whilst under load going up any incline. It also sometimes hesitates whilst pulling away as if there’s a split second there’s no boost then it picks...

Hi I have issue with a friends van t5 hoping someone can help. He was driving down the road van started smoking(black). EmL came on and limp mode for short distance then died. Garage recovered it and diagnosed Dpf. New one fitted but would not start. I have now been given the task to figure...

A couple of people asked recently why I seemed to have gone quiet lately. Well, I haven't actually gone quiet, I've just had a catalogue of issues with my T6 recently, which sadly still aren't quite resolved. This all started with a cracked exhaust manifold, which we removed and went to order...

Hello All I’m new to the forum as looking to buy a T6. This looks to be an awesome place for info and advice. I’m new to the T6 and have only driven one and am really keen on it. However, the turbo seemed pretty noisy with a noticeable whoosh under load - is this normal? Is there anything...

Hi all I have just bought my first T6 after owning a T4 1.9td for 12 years. What a different beast the T6 is! Im very happy with it, but having never owned or driven one before and forgive me if this a stupid question......... are you meant to hear the turbo when driving? The revs get to...

Hi, Hopefully someone can help. I have a 2017 Euro 6 150BHP T6 Transporter. Now, i haven't had the van long and i like to stay onto off servicing and making sure they are in tip top condition. There was an oil pressure warning light on the van (the red oil can light, i believe this is the high...

Hey guys. Hope your good. I stopped to fill up with diesel and as I drove off the coil light started flashing. Soon after the engine management light popped up and stayed there. A ‘start stop failure’ light came up also.. As I was driving my elderly parents around I was cruising super slowly...
