There's no power there when you drop the accelerator peddle, it's holding off.

Found out what it was, it's a turbo pipe that's gone, I lifted the bonnet this morning and started it up and noticed some smoke coming from the back of the engine.

I've got one of them diagnostic kits but it wasn't showing anything up.

there you go then, the old engine always split the EGR to Intercooler pipe but thats front mounted, ironically your turbo is on the front.....I fixed mine once with gaffer/duct tape rather than give Frauds £45
