My problem is finally sorted. Had a new turbo and since then the car had no power until 3500rpm then it went wild. I had several checks done ( egr valve, maf, actuator, and even the new turbo was tested) i finally got a wicked technitian to look and he' got one of those colour camera worm type things. He had a good look and diagnosed " the manifold had split ! " I got a good used 1 from an 06 plate, had it replaced and now it flies. HALLELUYAH !!!!!!! MY BABY IS BACK.

Glad you got it fixed. Boost is a terrible thing to waste.
