Hope you get it sorted. Sent £10 towards it. Not much but it's something.
Thank you, appreciate that a lot 🙏
i have had my t4 for 21 years from new and it brings a tear to my eye when is not working
You get so attached to them 😢
Could be worse i investigated a similar scenario.. turnt out my leak was slave cylinder 🤦🏻♂️.
Been into garage today - just in time for camperjam
It doesn’t end 😖
My t4 was chucking out loads of blue smoke, thought it could be the turbo so changed it, what a ball ache it is to change. Turns out the turbo was fine but needed a complete engine rebuild. I got the new turbo from autodoc for 300quid so not to expensive
I’m the other way round, I done the engine rebuild now I need a turbo 🤣 I did look on autodoc, however I might get a cheap eBay job for now, then get my one reconditioned, or even go hybrid 🤩
I still have my old turbo if you wanted to try it, might cure it. If it works great if not send me it back 🤷♂️ mines an ajt engine not sure if the trbos are different
Keep going you supported so many by ur hard work and showing how it’s done. Hope you get it sorted in time x
Thanks mum x
Don't give up hope mate, if you can fix a sliding door you can fix a turbo as the British army advert would say 🤣 but best of luck on getting it sorted 👍
Haha that’s so true 😆 cheers buddy 👍
Gutted for you mate. I hope you find a workaround for it 👍
Thank you 🤞
I'd say have a chat with Mario at MV Engineering
The rover 200 turbo shares the same CHRA if that makes things cheaper without the T4 tax. (KKK turbo)
Yeah thank you, I did see this and on a Peugeot as well, can’t remember which one tho 🤷♂️
Hi Matt, sorry for your woes, I would gladly lend you my Caravelle for Bug Jam but I’m in Leicestershire
Haha thank you that’s so kind, I’ll be up at the weekend 😂 😂 having slept on it I think I have a plan 👌 👍
Yep, midland turbos, I’ve used them a fair few times for work vans, it’s much better getting your genuine turbo rebuilt 👍
Yeah I’ll see what they’re saying 👍
Run it with the pipes off you will see the oil pissing out if its gone and usually plumes of smoke out the exhaust
That engine sounds like a valve issue either camshaft follower or a bit of that turbine is gone into the intake and gotten under a valve seat
Take off the egr off the manifold and run it have a listen in the intake manifold if its popping have a couple big heavy rags like old jeans or a plan to block the manifold if it goes run away and a helper to start the van and shit it off
It would probably be easier take the head and turbo off instead of trying to get in at the turbo
Yeah loads of smoke out of exhaust, and a lot of play in the turbo. The noise in the engine is the vacuum pump, when I pump the brakes the knocking goes away, I also thought that it was the cam, as it is slightly worn. I got the turbo off yesterday, didnt take too long. Need to either change the core or get it re manufactured somewhere. I took the intake off and then the turbo and manifold and then split the turbo on the bench. Worst part was removing the exhaust clamps 🤦♂️
@@TwiggsT4 ah the exhaust clamps you need to make 2 wedges it's pretty easy once you get the first one in pull the pipe to the other side and slip in the wedge they practically fall off
@@TwiggsT4 ye smoke is the confirmation
Have you a mount problem aswell the sound it makes switching it off and starting
Watch the engine when it's switched off you should find it easy enough
That new place your working you doing them a good service showing the good work you do it's a great way of drumming up business
@@TwiggsT4 the vacuum pump has a few valves inside the lid if you take it off you will find a broken one just note the orientation of the valve they look like button's and are one way valves so need to go back in the right direction
I looked at a rebuild kit, but might just get a new pump for now then recondition my old pump later. I’ve nearly got enough bolt on hardware to build my other engine 😂
I bought another turbo cartridge for mine. Pretty cheap and easy to fit 🙂
Oh yes 👍 I have looked into this as I was looking into making up my own hybrid turbo
@TwiggsT4 mine was removed from the van as I was doing a tdi conversion at the time. Probably best to remove the unit to fit the cartridge. Hardest part was getting those stupid exhaust clamps back on. Gutted for you bud. Hope you get it sorted for the shows 👍
Yes those exhaust clamps are not fun and time consuming even when you have the tool for it 😂 cheers buddy hopefully I’ll make them 🤞 👍
Good luck with repairs, i'm sure you will fix it. Maybe a hybrid turbo would be good 😉
I’m just looking into this 👍
You dont want diesel run away again.
Passat went that route rip
Yeah that’s why i investigated straight away, vans off the road till further notice 😢
I got mk4 golf needs rear axle fitting for bugjam aswell. 🤦🏻♂️vaglife😡
I swear i never done this much work on fords-
Yeah I was thinking that the other week about fords 😂
At least I know I’m not a bad jinx, no ball joint issues after you helped me with mine. Dude, this is some bad luck. what would cause a turbo to seize up?
Haha na I done my balls before doing yours so that’s all good 👍
I think prolonged driving at high speed on boost 🤷♂️ I always allow the turbo to cool down when I stop driving, maybe it’s just old and worn
Midland Turbo's bud.
My Mk5 golf got a oil leak need to jack it up as it's bk of engine lol been like it 6 months bloody vag life lol 😂
Ps check oil cooler housing as gasket fails
Just a thought ask Dream Days if they would do a sponserd how to video, just a thought, dont know untill you ask, cheersand good luck 👍👍
Cheers Ben, I didn’t even think of asking them at work, 🤦♂️ thanks mate 👍
😂
Gutted for you dude 😢 sure you'll sort 💪👍
Cheers buddy 🤞 back on the road soon 👍 💪 🍻

Ah mate! Sad times indeed.. I hope I wasn't the jinx for you! 😒

I wouldn’t call it jinx, just shows how all the vans are emotionally attached to each other 😂
