Hi
I've used the search and found some parts that partially relate to my problem but nothing concrete so hoping you can help.
I picked up a 57 1.3 multijet GP on Friday. It has a whirring bearing type noise on medium to hard acceleration and overrun, boost doesn't come in until 2500rpm and if I floor it up to 4000rpm it goes into limp home mode and won't rev past 3500rpm and is extremely sluggish. If I cycle the ignition the limp mode disappears.
There is no EML but I did recover an engine code for overboost.
I have no idea of the history so I'll be starting off with a full service and cleaning MAP and EGR but can anyone shed any light on what the root cause could be? Also any ideas on the whirring bearing noise?
Thanks
