HELP !!!!!!!!
my turbo went on my 530d, i had it reconned then fitted by a garage, now the car would not pull you out of bed. i have had a rolling road test done and its well down on power. I get a load hissing noise whenever i accellerate and the power comes at 35000 rpm , should come at around 1750-2000 rpm !! Ive had it to 2 garages including the tossor who fitted it and i'm really struggling. Any1 near sheffield ? i could really do with someone who knows bm's to have a look. It has cost me a fortune and i'm runnung out of money !!!

Hmmm i would guess the seals in the turbo have not been fitted correctly, it should never have left the original garage in the state!!! i would take it back to the recon team, after all you have paid for a service that you havent recieved!!

I had this with the Audi A6 2.5TDi when i bought it, i could hear a hairdryer type noise and the mpg was 15. I discovered that the hose from the turbo was loose with the jubilee clip rattling about, tightened the clip and the car was transformed..
It will be something simple, i'd visit the garage who fitted the turbo.

I had a very similar situations in my Supercharged trucks...I could hear air rushing out and NO power. Hose was split way in the back and I had to remove the upper part of my engine to get to it.
Good Luck.
