  • DSport 110 turbo nightmare :(

    Just want to start by saying how much I love the car but now its really beginning to p**s me off. Since new in June '11 i've had an intermittent fault with the asr/esp. Light would come on at 70 and cruise control and speed limiter stopped working. Turning engine off and on again and all was good. Car was booked in start of December for the recall problem and the day before the turbo decides to give up completely. It was in a week while turbo replaced after they figured out what was up and when I got it back it performed better than ever. This was short lived. Couple of weeks later the asr/esp starts playing up again and then boom, turbo goes again. Sooo I take it back and they tell me the turbo was fine but there was a problem with a valve? (Sorry not technical at all) causing air to be pushed back into turbo and split the seals. This was replaced and then they realise turbo has actually gone again. So they fix it but still only manage to get 75% power. They can't seem to find problem, there's now blue smoke coming out the back so oil being burnt somewhere?? Oil pressures are normal. The dealer tells me they keep sending diagnostic results to Citroen and they are going to have to get a specialist technician in. So what i'm asking is has anyone any ideas whats up, has it happened to anyone else and will I ever get my beloved car back? It only has 2500 miles on the clock. To top it off i'm driving around in a C1, not happy :mad:

              I really hope this isn't an issue with the 110 diesels I don't think I could cope with anymore issues after the THP :-/
