Right, thanks to all those guiding me towards the leaky DV probs.

 

Stalling problem has now gone away (on a short test drive)

 

however . . . . .

 

Still got no boost

 

Cant get above 5 psi now - same as before i replaced the DVs for the original recircs.

 

Even putting boost controller on 1 bar on will not raise past 5psi

 

ideas??

You reset the ECU???

 

Just a thought.......

 

Matty.

you need to do a boost leak test mate

Mr Dixon has said he will help out with that. Ist just another long journey, down. I seem to spend more miles in my car taking it for fixes than anything else.

 

Before I trek down, any ideas on which pipes I need to start looking at. Is it likely to be one of the 3mm vacuum pipes or one of the large 4 pipes at the front near the rad?

Jay,

If it's leaking that much it's more likely to be one of the big boost pipes than a small vac line. Check the rubber hoses where the turbo outlets are joined to the hard pipes and the ones on the throttle bodies / intercoolers.
