I will try that when I get home. I've done all the same data stream and all of my values are the same on both banks. I did take some photos of the values which were the same or near same as the ones he got off the good bank. So hopefully, fingers crossed its not the turbo. Looking more like a...

So,if I get smoke from the top hoses I've got a failing turbo?

I've got my hands on an air compressor so I'll make a funnel type adapter in my workshop to connect to the right intercooler hose and get some pressure into it and see what happens then. Does anyone know what the max pressure I can pump in is? Either way it's going to hiss or blow🤦‍♂️ I'll check...

I'm going to put the recirculation pipes back in tomorrow as it's got worse since I blanked them. Then get some air into it with a compressor and see if it's the manifold mate. Thanks for the help so far mate. Much appreciated 👏 I will get it sorted if it's the last thing I do!!

Thats my next step mate. Took it to Brighton today from my home in portsmouth for a work meeting and it went into limp mode over 10 times. Every time I went over 2500 revs and up to speed or over 2000 revs uphill. And there's alot of hills🤦‍♂️ if i boot it quickly and then let it drop its...

Yeah me too mate. I'm just going through everything I can. It may still be the same issue as when the egr codes came through. It's just moved up the line codewise. The fella I spoke to last night said that if a blocked egr was the reason it was going into limp then the problem will still exist...

Because the egr's are still in the system and air still runs through them. If they are blocked then the air is reduced causing the code to be thrown out. That's what I was told last night by another fella. I've only blanked the recirculation pipe. Not the actual egrs. Is he wrong then? I had the...

I'll try today and get back to you mate. Going to put some egr cleaner through it today also as the p023d code can get thrown up by a blocked egr apparently which would make sense.

Not that I'm aware of mate. Just wondering if the egrs are blocked. I had them blanked as I was getting an egr fault code with black smoke. If they were blocked that would still give me problems wouldn't it?

Took the cover off and no real signs of soot or leakages anywhere. Can't hear any hissing sounds either. Had a bit of oil residue around the left intercooler hose as it goes into the manafold but I've wiped it and sprayed and no bubbles anywhere. So I've cleaned the MAP sensors and swapped them...

I'm just going to get the cover off and have a look on that and get it revving and see if I can hear anything. Good shout mate👍

Where did you connect the air line to the engine mate? I see the gauge but couldn't see where it went in?

MAF bank 2 I need to check from then. The snapped hex on the blank plate will have a bit poking out once I take the plate off so hopefully I can either get a grip on it and twist it out or I could put a small nut on it an spot weld it. Then should be able to twist it out that way. I'll have a...

I didn't realise it made my email my profile name🤦‍♂️can't change it til March 20th so I'll have to do it then. Thanks for the heads up mate.i stated the vehicle details in the original thread too. 3.6 tdv8 2009 l322. I didn't put that it's a vogue se though. Where would I start with the MAF...
