Saturday night I fitted a straight through side exit exhaust on my td5, then Sunday I went over to core 4x4 on Sunday,

On the way over there it was fine bit throughout the day at some point I've lost alot of power but because I had it in low range and a big pair if muddy riggers on I couldn't really tell the moment I lost the power!

I did at some point gi through alot of water over the bonnet, and there's not any black smoke coming out the exhaust, so I'm assuming the turbo is ok. But at the same time I can't feel any turbo at all???

I've got no lights on the dash and if I try on a straight flat road I can do 50 but up hill my max is about 25

Any help please
 
Might be water got into the air filter and it's now blocked, what I first bought my 2003 TD5 it was down on power and replaced the air filter and it was much better.
 
hello mate no luck in that!

does anyone else have any ideas to check before it goes in the garage tommorow?

i cant see any of the turbo hoses are broken air filter is fine although a bit grubby all the levels are fine?
 
When my intercooler hose went, it looked fine but it came apart inside, the only way you can be sure it's not the hose is to remove it and look inside. it should only take about 10mins to check.
