2001 Freelander loss of power

Hennie · Apr 28, 2010

my frerelander has got 175k km's on the clock, i have experienced a loss of power which i can try and explain like the turbo has been switched off and a "hissing"/Blowing sound from where the turbo used to kick in. it still pulls but nothing to what i am used to!!

please help!!!!!

Maybe a turbo hose/pipe has split or come off? Have you had a look at ya pipes Hennie.

Jedis on the ball today, Intercooler hoses would be my first port of call. Next I'd have checked out the variable vane operation & vacuum solenoid for the turbo but the hiss your hearing does point to intercooler pipes/hoses.
