i’ve got an intermittent fault with my 130. The best way i can describe it is this.
There seems to be a specific point when depressing the throttle that causes it. When driving along and only applying the minimum throttle without coasting the car starts to lurch with no power and black smoke comes out the exhaust. Giving it a bit more throttle will make it take off with plenty of power and drive normally with no smoke. s
When i’m driving and it’s not happening - the turbo seems to spool up straight away as soon as i push the pedal.
When the problem is occurring though it seems to take a lot more throttle to get the boost going (and get past the dead spot) and then it comes on it more of a rush.
I’ve done alot of searching and reading but can’t find anything referencing the throttle position specifically.
Any help appreciated.
