Well im happy to say that the new solenoid has fixed the problem. Thanks to everyone that has suggested things to try as well as all the info in this forum. Just waiting on my new delete pipe sensors from Auggie and itll be good as new

When I tested the voltage it was battery voltage which explains what you are saying Tony. The actuator moves freely and takes little effort to move when sucking on the hose so I think the actuator is ok. The funny thing is it's not blowing black smoke but it's like I'm driving with the handbrake...

Thanks for the replies everyone. I found the hose on the turbo actuator to be perished so I trimmed it back to good hose but all the others appear to be in good condition but I will replace them. Ive got good vacuum to the solenoid but that's as far as it goes. Ive got voltage at the solenoid...

I want to install a primary filter with the water bowl on the bottom ie Stanadyne. Its cheap insurance compared to new injectors and a pump. But you have me thinking now. Why not replace the factory filter with an after market one?

Thanks for the reply. The problem I have is where the filter is mounted in the pics there is some sort of sensor mounted in that space which leaves no room for the filter. Mick

Hi all I want to fit a secondary filter on my D40 auto (Spanish built 2008) but I'm told there isn't a kit that will fit. Has anyone got any pics of one installed and where they got the kit from Thanks Mick
