what happens is..

no acceleration..

hear turbo winding..

cant get over 2.5 revs or it starts jolting.. like its getting acceleration then loosing it quickly.

Does it 1/6 times i drive the car..

* When i bought the car it did this. He said it was a wiring problem on the AFM, wich it may be.. cause u play with the wiring and the car cuts off*

Just woundering what else this might be caused from if its not the wiring?

Hmmm.....sounds like limp home mode for a faulty AFM, won't let you rev past 2500rpm. My experience was exactly the same, happened fairly infrequently......at first. I killed mine thanks to the use of some normal silcon for a seal between the the AFM and the airfilter. The silcon was not "sensor safe". I know now better!

Cheers

Is it auto or manual?

Sounds like your has blown a cooler piping. Check all the piping to make sure they haven't popped off, reason its surging above 2500rpm is because it builds boost, but the boost doesn't reach the intake manifold as it leaks out somewhere in the piping, then the car over fuels and start surging.

Thats my theory, check the simple things first.

If its not that, then chack AFM.

EDIT: Just re-read your post, does sound more like the AFM than anything. But check all things to be sure. :P

Try borrowing a friends afm and see if there's any difference. If it's not that, do what abu has suggested. Check piping.

Yep thats a good idea actually!

See if that works, saves you buying one and that not being the problem.

You could probably source a 2nd hand one from the forums for fairly cheap. Will keen an eye on the for sale section. If I see one I will post up the for sale thread link. :P

thanks guys, yeah im pretty sure its the afm, i got a microtech to install when i get a new turbo.. so then i wont need my afm, just waiting on loom for the microtech, $300 is cheapest loom iv found so far... dont want to pay that much :nyaanyaa:

Yeah thats good. I reckon AFMs are more trouble then they are worth.

A MAP sensor would be much more reliable in that sense.

Well thats my personal opinion anyways lol

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
