6 months ago i had turbo failure...i thought I should change or repair it but in the end i figured out that the plastic pipes ending on that part the exactly same you change in this video was damaged and lose air so the vacuum didn't worked properly so the turbo didn't worked either..thanks for the video and the informations you shared

i keep a cheap $5 obd2 scan connected and bluetooth linked to a disused mobile phone. i call up all variety of gauges on it. monitoring the boost pressure is very easy.

The clip on the vacuum you replaced with a jubilee is designed to be circular pressure when tightening. A jubilee doesn’t tighten fully circular. You May have issues drawing in air. 👍🏻

Nice video. I've just replaced my hoses for the BCV. Could you tell me does the BCV pulsate with the engine running? If so is it a steady pulse? Told its supposed to but mine does sometimes and not others. Thanks.

@PrimalNomad

4 жыл бұрын

Thank you! The bcv would pulsate under load as the solenoid would be working opening & close with the vaccum. I don't think this does happen fully unless the turbo is spooling though so might indicate why on idle there is less movement.

Thanks for the vid, I have the same vehicle and I replaced that turbo vacuum solenoid too. I wanted to replace my old plastic intake pipe like you did, however the link you supplied to Alibaba only sells them 50 at a time - how did you get just one? Cheers.

Love your video man! But one question. Have the replacement turbo intercooler hose & air intake hose improved performance? Im intrigued.

@PrimalNomad

Thanks for watching! I've definitely noticed a difference for the boost, the older rubber pipes used to both swell and also vacuum in under load, these have completely eliminated that issue & also renewed the pipes which were starting to degrade so it was a win win.

@PrimalNomad

Generally this is a symptom of a bad solenoid (BCV) but I'm still to determine how much the actuator should move with idle. The engine utilises the turbo to move exhaust gasses via the actuator. How still if yours when the engine is off, it shouldn't have lots of play.

Fuck me I'm trying to focus to how to do this job!!but with that background music I now have too much anxiety to do the job and suffering with pdsd now

There's a vacuum pump over near the oil filter on the right-hand side of the motor. You could lose vacuum through any crack in the line, but also inside the brake booster which is vacuum assisted. Check the pipes from the pump and let me know! Good luck!

It regulates the vacumn directed to the turbo and adjusts it according to revs for your boost, when it's playing up you may notice a significant change in turbo lag or acceleration.

I'm having a boost problem on my pathy. The boost pipe doesn't expand when squeezed and reved at the same time. When you say the actuator is that the rod underneath the waste gate? There doesn't seem to be a great deal of vaccum. I've just my vaccum pipes to samco one's. Any tips on what I should look at?

Yeah the actuator is that, moves up and down on vacuum. Sounds like the bcv may be playing up, try giving it a clean with some contact cleaner or wd40 and a good blow out. Does there seem to be vacuum if you take of the lines and block the ends with your fingers?
