Hi all

Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts...
My scoob has no power between 2 and 3000 revs
It seems worst at 2.5k
Doesn't matter what gear it's in just really struggles!
No strange noises and drives file when not sitting at that point!

Any advice muchly appreciated

Thanks, Sam

It has yes. Could this need rebooking at?

Could this be a case of needing new spark plugs or something simple like that?

Sort out leak first and go from there

Could be skewing o2 sensor readings

ot just bogging down before the turbo spools up, then?

I mean, is it really dead, or just struggling?

What's it like when the turbo kicks in?

And has it been like this since you first had it, or has it got worse recently?

It's struggling. Not dead.
As son as I'm past 3000rpm it's ok.
But I'm driving it very gingerly at present.
I got the car mapped for the exhaust, changed the battery and then it felt funny!
I'm taking it to a garage on Saturday for a few little service bits but want to get this sorted!
Yes it kinda feels like turbo lag but it wasn't like this when I brought it.
