cone roller

i bought my first scooby about 2 months ago, oct 1998 turbo 2000.
had clifford concept 650 with turbo timer fitted ( i use every time i stop without fail) anyway i went out for a decent run (about 60 miles) family on board so not pushing it , running fine when i stopped. next day went out and no turbo, other than that all seems good, no lights on dash, sounds fine, i've checked pipes and they all look ok.

I take it there are no funny noises coming from the turbo.
Have you checked actuator? Circlip come off or WG stuck open. Check dump valve.

dump valve opens and closes but makes no noise. no noise comeing from turbo, but i did just see air escaping from just in front of the exhaust side of the turbo could this be it? sorry my first turbo

I dont really understand where you mean. Are you talking about where the turbo meets the down pipe? or where the exhaust housing (hot side) meets the compressor housing (cold side)??

Any air escaping is not good!

have you checked the actuator is still fully attached?

inbetween hot and cold side.
actuator seems fine but as i said my first turbo so i'm not 100%
