Thanks for your reply Xavier. I take it you mean to check the waste gate which I had done. The problem has now alterered a little. Every now and again the car will accelerate normally and very well. Then it reverts back to a flat acceleration. If it is a VNT problem I take it that the turbo will need replacing.

Thanks. All wires ok in gaiter. So I take it that the motor works for the unlocking but not when locking. A visit to the scrap yard then. Thanks for your help

Post number two for my galaxy with the flat acceleration. This seems a little strange. When I lock the drivers door with the key (remote not working) it only locks the one door. I then have to use the passenger door to lock the other three. If I then unlock the passenger door it unlocks all four doors. But if I try to unlock all doors with the drivers door, it will only unlock that one door plus it activates the alarm. Hope this isn't too confusing. Davieg

Hi Everyone. Thanks for letting join your forum. We've just purchased a Mk2 2002 with the PD 1.9td engine. The problem is it's quite flat on acceleration, although it go's well enough when you get up speed. I'm replacing the cam belt at the moment so I took the plastic inlet pipe off of the turbo as it was easy to get to. I gave the turbo spindle a few turns with my fingers, it didn't seem to spin quite as freely as I thought it should, then again I'm not sure how it should feel. The turbo made no noise when the engine was running, not like a Mk1 we used to have. I would be very grateful for any helpful comments. davieg
