Hi chaps.
I had this problem for quite some time and i haven't been able to identify the problem... No fault codes either.
What happens is that when the engine is warmed after like 15 mile drive , I get this lack of power under acceleration and car feels gutless, the RPM needle seem to hesitate , fluctuate and doesn't want to climb or climb then stop then climb again when I press gas pedal , Unless I floor it then it goes ok
I thought It might be stuck turbo vanes , I put some turbo vane cleaning additive in the tank twice , some improvement but problem still happens especially after long drives .
I plugged in Icarsoft 980 and drove back from work 17 miles keeping an eye particularly on the charge pressure positionner ( hopefully means Turbo Actuator) , it seems to work fine values go up and down as I accelerate and ease off , However when I press the pedal down trying to accelerate and the hesitation happens then the charge pressure positionner value is showing stuck at 95% and car feels gutless again untill I gas more then the value drops.
Could it be turbo actuator thats playing up?
Thanks
