Why do these things always happen on a Sunday evening when you can do nothing about it??
Anyway brief history and details.
Leon FR 2.0TDi 2010 just under 80K on the clock
Drove home on Friday, mainly motorway and dual carriageway 25 miles and everything seemed fine. Filled up on the way home at the Esso garage.
Later Friday drove about a 15 mile round trip. Noticed on a hill from a junction that the car felt a little sluggish but put it down to being full of fuel. Overtook a car on the lane and everything fine. Didn't really hammer it or need sharp acceleration other than that.
Drove car again during Sunday. Aircon on as hot! about 5miles each way. On way back on an incline again didn't feel much power. Put it down to the 4 people in car, full tank, aircon on etc. Again didn't really go for it as not needed.
So Sunday evening nearly a 30 mile round trip. About 5 miles in (same lane) went to overtake a slow car and part way through the manoeuvre the car flashed up with a engine fault and lost a lot of power. Quite worrying. Luckily it was a nice clear road. Car then felt like it had no turbo. Pulled in at the next safe place after a couple of minutes and cycled the ignition and everything back to normal so carried on. Came to a set of lights which happened to change on approach so accelerated in 5th from about 35/40. Very slow climb up the revs. No boost kicking in as expected and then the fault came again. Cycled ignition again to clear. Same thing happened on the way back home a third time at a higher speed and then the engine light also came on.
So 3 things. Filled up with Fuel, had aircon on a bit and it's been rather hot. I'm thinking these are all coincidental and there is another underlying fault...
So, the important bit, I've read out the fault codes as below. Now need some help as what I'm going to do next as no chance of getting the car in and out of work on a 50 mile trip in this state.
the first glow plug fault probably not so critical it's the second boost one I'm more concerned about. The speed and revs tie in to what I saw on the dash as was expecting this one.
