Hi,

So this morning I was travelling up the duel carriageway to work between 5th/6th gear at around 70mph. The car seemed to lose power and was taking ages to go beyond 2500 rpm. Any ideas what this might be? Some of the pipes/hoses going into the turbo had come away from their housing clips, I reconnected them and on a short drive it seemed ok but not gone past 40mph. Fingers crossed for my drive home. 

The car is Octavita 05 2.0 tdi estate. 

could be sticky vanes like I still have lol

@ChristheFish84 - It may reset itself. See if it's OK on your way home.

Yeah it was fine on the way home and has been since. Thanks anyway.

@ChristheFish84 - That's your answer then. When the joint(s) popped, the engine went into "limp home" mode and reset when the car was lying off at work.

@KenONeill I'm not sure tbh as I'm not the most mechanically minded. I secured all the pipes/hoses going into the turbo that were not in their clips. I'm guessing maybe a blockage in the pipes or maybe they were pinched and running more free now in the clips? 

@ChristheFish84 - No, you were losing boost pressure because those pipes weren't sealed at the joints. If you're not sure, a competent local garage will probably double check for a donation to their coffee swindle.
