Thanks for the input.
I did not clean the oil lines before I fitted it. good tip for next time thanks
Have blanked the codes and just been on a 70mile test run
had trouble making it go wrong again.
My previous turbo had a huge dead spot but would then recover ( possibly sticky vanes)
I just lived with it.
This one seemed to have cured the problem but now its back very similar
I have had the Dongle plugged in and realtime boost pressure displayed on my phone
The boost suddenly drops down to 10 ish psi and then recovers
I kept booting it to recreate the fault but it took ages
if you come off the throttle at 90 ish and then stamp on it again you can get the boost to peak at 23.5
Most times this then drops off to 17 or 19
eventually it stayed at 23.5 for a prolonged period (5 secs) and this caused the same fault . Limp mode and engine light. code p1236 overboost
None of the other codes re appeared so I hope they were just caused by me working on it/ the turbo filling everything with oil.
Is there anything I can do about this or should I just hope it recovers as you have suggested. I would have thought that if I am gentle with it it wont happen, I could drive round it.
Having a wifi osb11 dongle/reader is fantastic can believe I didn't have one sooner.
Thanks everyone for your help with this
