Whats wrong with my Subaru B4

[Guest]

ok Well the second turbo doesnt seem to pick up anymore only the first one, it blows no smoke or anything, would this be a blown turbo. had a service about 4months ago, and when i check oil it was almost gone, would this be a seal or anything.

The other night my Girl Friend took it to work, when she left it started to bunning hop, Not sure if it her driving or the car, she pretty good driver so i think it something to do with the car.

Any help would be appreciated. can answer your question to give you a better idea of what wrong if needed

Thanks

Any error codes? Check all the vacuum tubing is all still connected (especially the t piece off the BOV)

[Guest]

how do you check error codes, the subaru is completely standard if that makes a difference

[Guest]

where are you located?

[Guest]

manukau, it also mite be making a tap or clicking sound, i cant tell the difference to know if it a bearing of just the lifters

[Guest]

just some more information about the car. Its an 1999 B4, it had a services about 4000km ago, not really racing or anything, just a crusier/run around car just the odd boost. but nothing over 5k rpm, prob not even that.

If your not going over 5k in revs then the secondary might not have kicked in

Take it to a mechanic, someone who knows Subaru's. These things are too hard to diagnose over the net.

[Guest]

i took to mechanic today and he said he couldnt find anything wrong with the turbo or any hoes leaks, but mention maybe the seals,

What symptoms would broken turbo seal give me,

[Swindog]

blowing smoke.

Acutator isnt stuck open is it?

[Guest]

Actuator stuck open = no primary boost

Did you mechanic say the 2ndary turbo was working or not?

What seals did he mention?

Need better info to diag this sorry
