No vanes on that turbo, that is not variable geometry, just a waste gate, which is working. Waste gate could be sticking, but I would check if the solenoid controlling boost is working as it should, it is probably sticking full open causing over boost.
@@KC08RAS I don't do any work without the go ahead from the customer. I was just called for a diagnostic inspection so any further work needs authorisation 👍🏻
@@kylebeardmore8954 yeah they are rubbish cars mate I sold it and got a mk5 Mondeo, nobody knew what was wrong with it, most mechanics couldn't be arsed with it as it's too much hassle for them. If you can find a real mechanic in this day and age and not just a level 2 fitter then give it ago other than that just swap it for a Mondeo mate. Once you start getting issues with it, it will just become money pit.
Super professional job!
Loving your logic dude.
Proves 1 thing get the right man on the job and thinks look better and hopefully problems sorted well donr jimmy
Nice job jimmy . Those hands are looking a lot better
Question, can bad turbo cause blow by in insignia 2.0 cdti?
O'Riley! do you guys have a video where you solve a turbo squealing/humming on an insignia? if so would you mind linking it please

Thank you I have exactly the same problem, so unfortunately it's looking like an expensive job for me
Nice one 👍
Why not use the turbo cleaner on this?
Yes we have given that option just waiting on a decision from the customer

Orite thanks for reply, I'd thought you'd just do the job then charge him.

@@ORileysAutos that a good policy
What about running a dose of Revive cleaner through it, isn’t that supposed to be good for sticking turbo vanes?
Yes but it's not guaranteed to work so I've given the option to the customer if he wants to try it
@@ORileysAutos would be great to see a follow up video if the customer gives you the go ahead.
What about map sensor or n75 valve?
Would it let you bi direction control the solenoid while car running to check full movement of arm. 3.5v ? Assume its pulse width modulated as well?
infatti hai ragione.. non so come mai delle capre facciano i video
My insignia has lost 50% power and no one knows why so frustrating I think all mechanics are arse now a days.
Was there ever a follow up? Having a similar issue with my car all the checks you did have already been done

You say insignia’s are money pits, but you went and bought a mondeo.. 😜
@@Spunksock nowt wrong with them. Best cars I've had.
