Help, my boost has suddenly stopped working, no reading of the turbo guage, car drives fine, can any1 help?

Sounds like a pipe has come off. Check all the small pipework that runs from the engine bay to the gauge.

no idea sorry , wuold have sugessted pipes but if already checked ??

might sound stupid as i dont really know that much myself but could be boost solenoid, more of a question than a answer,
and before any 1 take the pi55 ive already admitted i dont know wot im talking about

 

[chris_ba1212]

it is still boosting?

do you only have the standard gauge in the dash it would be faulty.

hi all i have found the problem, broken ceramic blade on one of the turbos !!
will need to replace, will it be better to recon the turbos with steel shafts ? or buy a replacement secondhand turbo ??

If they are good enough to be refurbed with steel internals get it done.
