Hi all, im having issues with regards to loosing boost and i aint got a clue where under the bonnet to start lookin for leaks!

First, check the main boost hoses. Find the turbo at the back of the engine, follow the big piping to the intercooler and check all the clips are secure and that the hoses aren't perished. Find the same diameter hosing coming out of the intercooler and check that too. Follow it all the way to the inlet manifold.

Then you need to look at the vacuum hoses - small diameter hoses spread around the engine bay. At this point we need to ask - are you troubleshooting an 850 or x70?
