Hey people
Can I pick your brains.
Turbo went on Thursday, like a **** in a sock so lots of oil and smoke everywhere, towed home.
Fitted a second hand one, scanned for faults an old cam position sensor fault came up so I had a spare one so swapped that too.
Scanned again no faults, started on the button best it's started in ages so guessing the cam sensor helped, ran for 20 mins scanned again no faults at all.
Engine off have lunch lol.
Ran for a few mins then took it round the block, revved through the roof like the throttle was stuck, pushed it home, scratched my head for a few, then tried to start it and it started on the button again, ran it for a while( still no faults) revved it a few times every 20 secs or so revs just go full throttle from 2000 to max nearly as fast as I can pull the key out.
I'm gonna go check all the vacuum pipes and connections I've touched(can't see anything)
So revs through the roof till I pull the key and as it revving lots of smoke.
Still no faults at all on vcds
Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
My heads banging with this.
Quick update, checked for metal in oil incase the injectors were being held open not one fleck, checked throttle pedal position with vcds and all looked good.
Disconnected the battery for an hour and I've been unable to repeat the fault since, an hour or so sat on the drive revving, only driven a few miles so far, no MOT till tomorrow and RAC won't recover me without MOT so better to be safe than sorry.
