5000 rpm misfire! Boost?
ive got a UK 1996 Turbo

when the car reaches roughly 5000rpm it misfires badly like it doesnt want to go any further- then carries on and in 2nd gear does the same at roughly 6500 rpm?

Possibly plugs, usually some of the 4 coil packs are failing by that age or have been recently disturbed, if that year has individual coils packs not the central one.

But that is just my opinion, some people on here may say otherwise.

Doh!
Hope it works.
The oil leak is probably from the cam cover gaskets / seals .. frequent failure before 100,000 miles, parts cost about £45 if you can do your self .. don't forget the special subabu adhesive/gasket stuff.
