Wtf My Car's f*ked

[ztuned]

hey guys,

i'm taking the car to the mech tomorrow morning. but just need some ideas quick

Took off to go to work bout 6pm, car is still warm as i only got home at 5.30pm, so no need to warm up the car

come out of my driveway, probably hitting 3000rpm ish, car goes POOOOP, i was like wtf. Then power starts cutting out(lights start dimming and going bright again), eventually the car stablises, idles at 1000rpm, then alll of a sudden the revs build up slowly.....from 1000rpm to 5000rpm. so i turn off the car

so i opened the bonnet to make sure my accelerator cable wasn't caught. everything looks fine.

turn the car on, car revs slowly up to 4000rpm again~!!!

then i turn it off, stepped on the throttle again.

and turned the car on again, this time it idled properly. at 800rpm ish.

so i put the car back in the garage, and go to work as i'm alrdy late.

come back 4hrs later

turn on the car, idles properly, so i tried to back it out. i reversed about 5metres, car starts acting weird again. i let it idle, and it idles hell rough with revs jumping up and down ( 800-1000rpm). and the car sounds like a rex

so i wait for 2 mins with he car on, then the car idles and sounds normal again.

tried to take it for a drive. the car feels hell weird, no power at all. so i tried to slowly boost it..but NO boost at 4000rpm..wtf..i can hear the turbo spinning making a weird sound...

then the car starts losing power again. it struggles to idles. then stallls...wtf

i can still turn the car on, but idles hell weird. doesnt have power at all and doesnt make any boost

so any suggestions? please, i need to know whats wrong lol. or i cant sleep tonight

coilpack? turbo? cylinder?

and btw lately when i take off slowly i can hear a very light 'hummming' noise from the engine, but never took notice of it

i also have a vented bonnet. but it's only vented on top of the radiator. so i assume it has nothing to do with it as water only goes to the radiator

so any suggestions plz/??

cheers

steve

sorry bout the long post, and it probably doesnt make sense.

[NISZILA]

Oh noes

Ok... when it went pop, did you notice any white smoke come out the exhaust?

[ztuned]

nah definitely no white smoke

[ztuned]

also a clicking sound come from the engine somewhere...i gotta check in the morning if i blew a pipe of somehting

[NISZILA]

Have you checked your intercooler piping. If one of them popped off, you won't have boost, but your turbo will still spool

[ztuned]

all the intercooler piping it connected...i just checked.

can difinitely hear to turbo spooling at 4000rpm...just no boost

but that shouldnt explain the funny idle right?

[ztuned]

I had a air line come off the front of my motor, ran like shit , almost like on 5 cylinders.

Just go through everything around the engine, also you might have a dud Injector, been there....

I am around the corner, so If you wanted too I could come by and have a look....

Bit late now.

Mike

[ztuned]

yeh it's a lil late, if i turn the car on the neighbours and my sis will go crazy as the car sounds a loud as a rex now

cheers though

ill check everything again in the morning, hope it's not something major

[hoony]

+1 to that dude, hope it's nothing too big a deal...

let us know how it goes though man (i'm sure you will anyway)

Hey Mike, which 'reputable' imports workshop is closest to innaloo? i wanna drive the car there instead of towing it

I looked on the 'The Consolidated Workshop Thread' and closest is 'Speedworks' in osborne park. but never heard of them

hmm, still sounds like a pipe has come loose, have had this happen to me a few times in silvia/skyline, exact same issue was due to a pipe coming off turbo, may look like it's on but.. air still may be escaping, doesn't take much when it comes to compressed air
