G'day All,

Has anyone suffered from this problem and if so was turbo lag and no or little response at low RPM the symptoms.

Cheers Ean

Off topic,but the same result.My Rodeo work ute has got to the point it is dangerous when pulling out on busy roads.Flat to the floor but goes nowhere.Our spannerman was looking into it last week,he is pretty sure the wastgate is stuck open(I told him to weld it shut).On these they are vacumn not pressure operated.He is awaiting a decent vacum gauge to check it.

Have noticed on a couple of occasions lag/miss/smoke when cold and manually up shifting at low revs.
Cheers
