My peugeot 1.6 HDi 2004 307 has started not accelerating fully. Had it serviced and put fuel cleaner thru it. How long for this to work, car is better but not fully back to normal and i've done 150 miles so far. Also an oil leak from turbo, not a lot but should i be worried about the turbo needed replaced? would these things be connected?
Change your engine oil along with oil filter because the same oil is used to cool down your turbo and any dirt means you're going to damage your turbo. Also check the diesel/petrol filter and replace it if not serviced in last two years. Check the hdi pressure (computer diagnose in a garage) because if it is not high enough you can't gain the desired acceleration. If injector seals are leaking then obviously pressure leaks. Clean your turbo sorrounding and check the leakage of oil. In solenoid area If its not enough to drip down or just a little amount that sits with dirt then don't worry (as caused by solenoid seal wear & tear) it has enough life to cover another thousands of miles. Find this solenoid and let it replaced. But if it is from your turbo fan then it doesn't comes out but goes directly in engine to burn with fuel and you can't even find a drop around your turbo housing. Best way is to keep your car serviced in regular intervals.
Yes these suffer bad on faulty turbos, i think yours is dead, let me know how u get on.
i know they carbon up inside which stops the oil getting in, really u need another oil change between servicing.
