I think its more likely that you have popped a hose off

Is the car blowing any smoke?

[Let Me Drive]

no smoke and have shecked most hoses and there seems to be none missing

[Let Me Drive]

who would be the best place to go get it checked and fixed

The nearest competant mechanic/performance workshop

Easy - drop out the cat-converter & check it to see if some bits of the exhaust wheel from the turbo are in there...... take you 15mins at the most.

if the exhaust wheel has gone to heaven youll may get a high pitched squeal sound when you give it some curry but you haven't mentioned any of that. it sounds like an airleak somewhere in the pipework.

did u get any smoke/puff/noises/pops when it occured?

Blitz is on the money here, more than likely you popped a cooler hose just have a look under the bonnet .

In my limited experience, when I popped the intercooler hoses off (shit silicone rubber & clamps; now replaced) the car simply stalled, and was a real shit to start to just get off onto the side of the road. Was very 'fluffy' when running.

If the car felt 'fluffy' then yes itd be a 'cooler leak of some kind, but if the engine felt normal but just didnt have any boost, then Id be spending the first 10mins looking inside the cat-converter for some ceramic bitsnpieces.

I'm with tangles.

my cooler pipe poped out and the car stalled once the revs came down.

would not start and stay running till I found which one and put it back on.

this man says it idles and drives fine but no boost.

[Let Me Drive]

yep there was a sound of a thud and then no boost

it starts fine and runs untill it hits the point of boost where nothing happens and not even the noise of the spooling happens

well its off to ICE to be fixed and new turbo and bits and pieces to be played with.

hear hoping its nothing any more major..

( NEW TURBO HAHAHAHAHA)

Yeah dude, if you aren't blowing any smoke (white smoke at that) then you're in the clear. Cooler hose, check them all, see if there's any play at all on all clamps - hoses.

[RBFIRE]

waste gate stucked?...wild guess,

No turbo spool, but car runing fine! safe boost mode?

u have boost controller?

[RBFIRE]

shouldnt it makes weird noise if turbo is blown?

[grim32]

My money is on the wheel being in the cat due to no spooling noise, hope im wrong. Good luck.

[markimak]
