Do you have a boost leak? Either that or your turbo is dying

Ugh BlueChu, I hope So. I woke up at 6 am and berely got home to rest. Well I been running around looking for sensors, and doing stuff to it like a new clutch fan because the engine was overheating. Boost Leak? Turbo Dying? NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! not yet :(. Iono, I have never had this problem with a car. Its automatic, soo right after 1st gear the engine goes into this stage like if its neutral, I accelrate and nada (nothing) and I am sure the Turbo is going because once you let go of accelrator you hear that zzzz or wait do you hear it when you accelrate it a little bit then let go. So im not sure if its a Turbo problem, Engine, Sensors. :( AHHHHHHHH. :aigo:

Turbo Dying
Just listen for the death whine its quite noticable.
http://www.94supra.com/videos/death_whine.wmv

Two things will and can cause this.

Boost Leak
Intercooler Hoses i had the lower hose from the turbo blow off and it shot out black smoke out the tail pipe. The car will spool the turbo but you wont be going anywhere.


Knock Sensors
They are on the side of the block screwed in you have two of them.
But before you do anything check for codes.
Code 34 is Turbocharger Area Problem
Code 52 is Knock Sensor

You have to jump something in the diagnostic box.

Hey its no problem im happy to help ive been through this many times. Replace your spark plugs they are fouled by now

Most common ones to blow are the hose from the 3000 pipe to the throttle body, lower intercooler hose from the turbo to the intercooler, check your hoses for any small crack and replace it and get tbolt clamps make sure everything is extra tight. My guess is the lower intercooler hose.

Supposely I needed a new Water hose, I ordered one but it was too short soo I told dude to use the old ones the car had already. So I could atleast bring car home. I think all the hoses were in bad shape. I am not sure if we are talking about same hose. I have never had a turbo :(. Or a fast car for that matter lol. But I think we are aiming at the right problem, unless its the turbo dying because my car does sound alot like that mk4 in the vid. :(. If my turbo dies I will suffer a great deal. And once again thank you, Just so you know, I wont stop thanking you ever muahahaha lol :p.
