Is this the type with a remote sensor and hose from the back of the manifold? If so ive had a few blocked, clear out the pipe on the back of the
manifold with a drill bit before fitting a new sensor.
Pull the hose of the back of the manifold hold your finger 1/2" away from the outlet and get someone to rev the engine to confirm.

next to it on mine is the turbo boost controller (real name ?)with vac pipes that can play up. and some times the variable veins in the turbo
seize.
last time i was chasing that fault it was a hole in the intercooler

Have now cleaned this out and it was blocked solid at the manifold as you said Paul , unfortunately it made no noticeable difference so the search
continues. lolquote: Originally posted by Cousin Cleotis
