Turbo Lag
« on: September 11, 2010, 08:21:02 pm »
Not sure what problem might be but just been out in my car and put my foot down and the turbo just would not boost up for what felt like ages!

Anyone else had the same problem?

Just does not seem to pick up like it did, but it only done 16k miles!

Thanks for any help, james
