Hi driving to work this morning and car decides to lose power on motor way hear like a popping sound as if something had come off. There was a bit of black smoke and then the loss of power still could drive at bout 50 and when I listened there isn't like a screaming siren noise like before when turbo went. So is it turbo or something else?

Lower boost pipe.

Would it have a deep exhaust note n whooshing sound

Yup,itll be a connection on the boost pipes,there known for it coz there pants haha.

Yeah your right just had it looked at. Need a new pipe as its been dragging along the floor n is all chewed up . Thank you for the help

Mine went after cambelt change last week. Had a moan up at the main dealer who did the work and its in as we speak getting a brand new pipe and clips, free of charge. Boom!!!

"Mr silicone" doesnt do oem vag connectors from the quick scan I just had, and with a standard intercooler setup there gonna be needed unless ypur willing to butcher pipe work and cause more potential leaks

I need the like u bend bit but local motor factors don't do them. And don't fancy paying 100 quid for one.
