Put a post on a while back but never got very far. The problem is that my turbo (MY99) is spooling up at the smallest of accellerator movement and is really getting to me! It didn't used to do this untill you pushed the accellerator about an inch, but now it does it all the time. I've checked all the hoses i can think of and the car is completely standard but i have a second hand PPP ready to put on but i want to sort this out first. Any suggestions?

Is your wastegate actuator working?
Is your T-hose between the compressor bleed and the wastegate actuator still connected and in good condition?
Is your boost solenoid still clicking away?

Nearest dealer is 105 miles away as i'm only 15 miles from John O'Groats, therefore it's not a viable option for me just now as i'm on nightshift and i won't get a chance to godown before i leave on holiday. Thanks S.
