turbo

Hi. I'm after some help or advice on a problem with the turbo on my 3.0 Vito engine. The van went in to a workshop a while back for a mild remap and to delete the egr. I just wanted to get few more mpg out of the thing and if that came with a few more ponies then fair enough. After two failed...

Hi all, Just wondering if I can pick someone's brains... A friend of mine has a 2008 Vito 110 with a VNT, which was suspected of having a weeping oil seal, so I swapped it out for a new core (or cartridge), and rebuilt it. apparently it drove fine for a little while and then threw up...

Hi Gents, 1st things 1st, a very Happy New to you all!! Im having an intermittent issue with the B200. Sometimes when idle the power steering seems to make a very strange grinding rattling noise. Sometimes you can see the steering wheel on its own slightly. Now as its intermittent i took it...

Just a quickie really.. When you replace the Turbo Seals (Big Red One & Smaller Red) do you coat them with anything, like a smear of silicone grease to stop them brittling?? Or do you just pop them in and hey presto! Just Curious as I'm doing mine shortly...

Hi guys looking for some help with my friends mercedes here. There seems to be some noise once you let your foot off the accelerator pedal, hard to explain how it sounds but its almost like a whistle along with a low pitched gasping for air sound that is not very loud but noticeable. I have ran...

Got the car plugged in and showed the following errors: So I did a bit of research and got my turbo actuator out. Connections were "semi" loose so we got the connections re-soldered. Car is still under-powered and is sometimes going into a limp (no dash lights) The actuator rods are...

I bought a CLS 320 CDI over a month ago, in London. As the usual process post buying a car from a private seller, I took it in for a service and to get a few issues fixed (like front brakes/tyres). I thought there was an oil leak somewhere, and unfortunately I was right, it was coming from the...
