Hey, in the last month or so, My Turbo(s) made a loud noise when on boost in first 10 mins of driving. I always expected dodgy bushes so tried not to boost until the noise stopped and all was good. This morning, usual noise so tried to baby it but was in a situation i had to floor it and the noise stopped, so did my boost.... I am guessing one of my turbos had siezed but surely not both?? If one turbo siezes, wont the other one still boost?? or have I been running on one Turbo and now both are stuffed??? Thanks, Mark.

Check all your cooler piping firstly, Try wiggle every pipe for the cooler to see if its loose. Check your Vaccum line to you bov and wastegates aswell might have popped one off.

Thanks Dean, I checked all piping and removed throttle body intake pipe, started her up, increased revs and felt a definate pressure there, my turbos are not seized after all..... still no boost at manifold though.....
