ok getting confused lol ok what would i need to get to "cure" the pinking? and any ideas of prices? someone said it could be the "botom ends" lol whatever they are! should i stop driving her? as i have been for the last month like this and she seems ok other than the noise please excuse my ignorance...

hi my pug 406 exec turbo has started making a deisel type sounds when the engine is under pressure, ie low revs, it kinda sounds like a ballbearing being pinged around the engine! kinda like a rattle that sounds like a diesel. any ideas? i have heard of pinking what is that? and could this be it? it...

hi niz can you price me the following please:

exhaust
wheels
standard turbo (OPTIONAL)

i could poss collect in next couple of days if the price is right

SWMBO??? LOL whats that?

also any dates in mind?

if you decide to come to me i can get you one from my breaker friend for £10 and we can use a ramp at my friends garage to fit it, you could use my boost gauge to test boost and you would need to spend about £8 on some pipe as i mounted mine under the bonnet for easy access

lol i have a friend who breaks turbos, mine is a steel one with a tension spring to stop it opening under vibration

also swiss i am not far from you (about half an hour) i would not mind helping you one weekend if you could make it to bracknell

they can be bad if they are not used properly , but providing you buy a good one that will not open with vibration and you set it using a boost guage you will be fine and trust me you will have a completely different car!

Hi first of all great site, i purchased a 96 406 exec turbo 3 days ago! and love it. now the questions, 1) i fitted a relatively good quality dumpvalve but it sounds very weak, as if theres no real pressure, i connected to the silver pipe running vertically down the top of the engine and plugged the...
