hi folks, i'm a newbie and have been trawling through some of the very useful threads. i have power problems with my 2002 laguna 1.9 dci. it doesn't have any power, it pulls away very slowly and struggles to get anywhere. i have removed the egr valve which was quite sooty but not really badand it didn't appear to be jammed i have checked the wiring to the egr and turbo pressure sensor at the plug but i haven't checked them right back to the loom yet. i noticed the pressure sensor was a bit slack so i removed it and cleaned off any oil and it seemed pull a bit better. once you get the revs up the turbo kicks in with no dodgy noises but once you change up a gear and the turbo cuts out it goes back to the lack of power. this morning the electrical fault light came on and as it lit the engine sprung to life and it seemed to be normal but as soon as the engine is turned off its back to being a pile of ****e. anyone got any other ideas?
