C70 t5 power loss

Caseyman · Mar 11th, 2020, 19:41

Hi everyone I’m having problems with my 2000 c70 t5 it’s down on power and can’t seem to work out why?

I’ve changed boost actuator, I’ve also changed vvt solenoids, full service. The car runs well no lumps or bumps. But it just doesn’t have much power
Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I’m tearing my hair out TIA

Have you checked the OBD for any faults?

Do you have an engine light come on?

Have you checked all boost pipes? The t5 engine is chronic and very picky on boost leaks

I’ve checked OBD no faults present as of yet.
I will however check all the boost pipes to check if they’re split
