C70 Performance problems

robswfc · Nov 10th, 2007, 15:41

Hi, I currently drive a '97 C70 2.4 turbo. I have a company van so don't drive the c70 very much. I used it last weekend and I seem to think that the turbo isn't working as the acceleration was quite slow. As christmas is coming up and money is quite tight I wondered if there was anything I could look at rather than pay loads of money to take it to a garage. Also the MPG seems to have skyrocketed. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks in advance.

You may have a boost pipe leak. Have a good look at all the rubbers, give em a squeeze and see if there are any spilts.
