I just had the top hose off and as dirty engine parts go it seemed pretty clean to me.lozz wrote:pull a pipe off & see if its full of oil,
id go for the top pipe easiest one,
ithink if turbo was on its way out you wouid know by the noise,
you shouid get a nice low pitched whistle sound on the 110s
The over reving couid be the cable,check theres abit of slack in it and returning freely
if too tight just pull the clip out and adjust,

Re: Over revving
I've never heard of turbo failure on a 110HDi, ever
Mine used to whistle noticeably, so much I could play tunes with it, but it still boosted away like the best of 'em (spent most of its life smothered in dirty oil too, KKK unit).
