You see, I need somebody like you. I've 2.0TDCI in 2008 ford focus. It was in many shops, even official ones. It's absolutely ridiculous how inexperienced poeple are there. They are not able to think; most of the time they follow some "cookbook" from a dealer. It would not help me saying what's wrong with my engine. But I do appreciate there are people still out there who know what they're doing.
The Sad thing is, a number of those type of shops are just lazy. Too lazy to diagnose the actual issue. Instead, they just throw parts at it until its fixed. They dont care, because they get paid.
My close relative bottomed out my Mk7 1.8t Golf in a ditch and put a hole in the intercooler. I was unaware of it for a month. I brought it into my euro shop for a boost leak and they found the hole. Saved me about $1000 because I thought I needed a new turbocharger. Had to learn this eventually Lucky for me I have a trustworthy euro shop close by, otherwise I would've been fooled and overfeeding my money pit
Just orderd my leak detector...My KC2 runnin great still after 20000 mile!s Think cracked the stock intercooler..getting smoke,,new boots on already.. runnin ur tune still !Excur with the PPP oring heads are great 155/30s
Got a supercharged nissan titan I've been trying to find my leak for months. Gonna give this a go, maybe I can crack the 450hp mark with this fixed. Thanks.
Hey, I have changed my biturbo unit on my a7 3.0tdi. Now i get no boost until 1800rpm what do you think could be the issue? The small turbo is working from 1800 to 2700 then big turbo takes over. Ive heard it needs calibration is this true?
@@KCTURBOS hello yes its same turbo just a refurbished unit. My tuner checked all vacuum and its holding up good. The actuators are moving freely. Is it possible it needs calibration?
I have a 2016 f 250 all stock I have a p00bd-00 code ,new air filter cleaned mass air flow sensor,light stayed off so I put a new Motorcraft one in also replaced map sensor cause it had a lot of carbon build up on it cleared code drove for 3 days about 200 miles started it this morning light back on same code.any ideas intake hoses don't look to have any cracks or whore spots.any help would be appreciated.
Exhaust leak test: Have truck running, put it in drive, have someone under the hood with a flashlight looking at the up-pipes, hold the brake with one foot as hard as possible, then put the fuel pedal to the floor and hold it until the truck starts to push through the brakes or the leak is found.
I have a 05 lly. Just put my new reservoir tank, cold air intake kit from wehrli fab. Now it’s like I can’t get over 6psi boost. The intake with filter on a stick is 4in with 3.5 in reducer to the intake to the turbo. I tighten all boots I installed was fine before I installed that. Any advice gonna do a bossy test today hopefully after work
Boost leak test is always a good idea! hope fully that fixed the problem? Sometime packaging could be inside the intake tube or filter, make sure there is nothing restricting air flow on the intake side. If the kit came with a charge pipe as well, it can be super easy for something to be off a bit.
I have you 7.3 street package on my 1996 F-350. I have a banks intercooler. On the daily driver setting, while just cruising around, my egts around around 700-800. Going up little hills, it goes up to around 1000. If I floor it, it reaches around 1200ish. On my hot street or track reaper setting. I have constantly hit 1400-1600 with 2-4 seconds of acceleration then I let off because I don’t want to melt my engine. Are those egts normal?
I also have a 95 f250 with all the bells and whistles, i get 5-700 cruzing around, and 1000 going up steep hills aswell, just be carful when towing, its not originally designed to have that much power so the egts can climb fast.
I was at a light when it turned green i stepped on the gas pedal and wouldnt go it wasnt untill i stepped on it hard that it kicked on, now it feels like i have a lag on boost, i floor it and takes a while to boost up, any ideas?
I have question when I’m driving and my truck hits 100mph the boost just drops all the way I know it’s not it leak cause the way it happens it’s like once I hit it certain speed it stops

I hope your client finds a trustworthy diesel mechanic. Sucks some shops do not manage their employees very well.
Just installed a KC 1.5 on my ‘04 6.0 - great product & support!

A good an honest shop is extremely valuable!
I can relate. Lots of auto shops have gotten poor since the pandemic

Great advice. Thank you.
Awesome thanks for this video!
oh crap. i think this might be what my 6.0 is doing. did he replace the intercooler?
Yes sir, the side was blown out
Looks like the new turbo built to much boost 🤘🏽🤣
Dude. What camera are you using in this video? I love the out of focus background! Thanks. Helpful info, too!
That is just an iPhone in cinematic mode.

Any advice for ole 12v oil leaks. I’ve always been told they always constantly leak no matter how much you try to find the problem
What if you can barely reach your turbo, let alone putting some cap over it to attach an air compressor?
Top side creeper
Gotta unbolt and manuver around
Thanks for the advice

Did you check for boost leaks? They are very common on new turbo installations. Are they the same turbos as before?
@@KCTURBOS hello yes its same turbo just a refurbished unit. My tuner checked all vacuum and its holding up good. The actuators are moving freely. Is it possible it needs calibration?
Just had the car at audi and they also didnt know or find anything im hitting a Wall here 😅

I like that technique, just curious, do you ever have to bar the engine over in the event a intake valve is open?
Nah, the intake valves dont overlap.
Whats best way to exhaust leak test lbz
Exhaust leak test: Have truck running, put it in drive, have someone under the hood with a flashlight looking at the up-pipes, hold the brake with one foot as hard as possible, then put the fuel pedal to the floor and hold it until the truck starts to push through the brakes or the leak is found.

Stay out of those crazy tunes bro, youll blow something up if your not fully built, keep it in a moderate tune and thos egts should be fine.
I also have a 95 f250 with all the bells and whistles, i get 5-700 cruzing around, and 1000 going up steep hills aswell, just be carful when towing, its not originally designed to have that much power so the egts can climb fast.
@@FlyNRyanfpvare getting those numbers unloaded ?
I was at a light when it turned green i stepped on the gas pedal and wouldnt go it wasnt untill i stepped on it hard that it kicked on, now it feels like i have a lag on boost, i floor it and takes a while to boost up, any ideas?
Did you perform a boost leak test? Or an exhaust leak test? here is a link to the exhaust leak test: ruclips.net/video/nOpO4gGS0vc/видео.html
If u find a good desial machanic they will have u 6.0 running like freight train allen blevos is the best machanic in tristate area
Amen to that! Shout out to Allen Blevos, we love and respect quality and honest mechanics!
I have question when I’m driving and my truck hits 100mph the boost just drops all the way I know it’s not it leak cause the way it happens it’s like once I hit it certain speed it stops
Leaks are usually gradual. A sudden stop in boost like that sounds more computer/tune related?
@@KCTURBOS yeah after me and my cousin looked at it it’s governed
I need help
How can we help?
Try rip him off thousands of dollars for turbo job smh . Put the name of the shops so we can all see it . Fkn disgusting 😡
