Hi,
Just to let people know that when my car was in for some outstanding warranty work they changed x2 Turbo Hoses which apparently blow off and create a huuuugee bang then a loss of power.
Now I don't know whether or not the recall is only on D5's but it may well be worth ringing up and asking about other variants as it’s clearly a fault which needs rectifying.
