lower my turbo boost

[vito stan]

Hi all.
my clutch has just started slipping on my 02 112cdi 638, does anyone know if you can lower the boost pressure.

Thanks for any advice in advance.

yeah you can give it a map what a 110 vito runs , l will test drive a 110 first and lm sure you will stick to the boost pressure of the 112 .

Fix the clutch, its only a matter of time before it won't transmit any torque! You know it makes sense. As a temporary measure, less pressure on the right pedal will do what you want.

Once a clutch starts to slip it isnt long before it gives up completely..........less pressure on your right foot will lower the turbo boost.......

Clutch only slips in 4th gear when the turbo starts kicking in, its fine in every other gear even fully loaded, up hills at speed no worries.*

Just didn't want to fork out £600-700 just after expensive Christmas.*

I have had none turbo vehicles with a clutch slip last 10,000 miles. It's just when the bloody turbo kicks in.

Light right foot and wait till it gets worse sounds a good plan. I've known a clutch go from slight slip to no drive in less than a thousand miles, though (on a Cavalier, I think it was).

Cheers buddy, Good call. I drive quite conservatively anyway because of fuel costs, so never use all the power anyway.

Thanks guys for all replies.

Am I right in estimating the price of a clutch replacement between £600-700.
