(1/2) > >>

DCR:
The problem Ihave is that when I start the car 95 tdi auto It chugs at about 1200rpm for about a minute loads of smoke no power no response to the accelerator pedal then it drops to 800rpm and away I go as if nothing was wrong.Yesterday it just cut out when doing about 40 mph. would not start. Rac came out tried various things even easy start no go .got recovered to local garage. after couple of hours they phoned to say they had found the fault. It was a turbo hose that had collapsed inside .13 more beer tokens to the guy at J L SERVICES Dar lo 40 tokens for the garage and I was away.But still got the no go problem when I start can any body help. Thank you.

TDi90:
jumped a tooth?  :? the timing could be out....

TDi90:
where abouts are you ?

peasey:
I would agree with tdi90,did you do the belt yourself or did it go in somewhere?

Les Henson:
If the belt was retarded one tooth it would smoke (grey) badly and performance would be very poor.  Advanced a tooth and the engine will rattle.
