no turbo grunt

hello guys
engine in tip top condition but down on power
in third i floor it and all you get in a loy of sucking noise,on hills its hopeless
had a mechanic check it all over and says no splits in any pipes...hmmm
maybe intercooler has give up the ghost!
if map sensor was at fault would fault light come up
running out of ideas now
turbo seems to spool up untill all the sucking noise
great website
Eddie

Have a look at the "lack of power at 70mph" fred at the top of the Freelander forum for ideas.

have you taken the inlet manifold off and cleaned it???
EGR blanked? air filter clean?

ahh the famous egr mod
dose it work well...took maf sensor lead off any car no different in power so gunna do that first
can i just get a new egr control valve or you recomend the blank
is it a case of unscrewing and removing
also i dont suppose you know where the cabin filter goes please
nice one
