You don't say what size / type engine i.e petrol or diesel .Any way doesn't really matter just now , check all hoses / pipes for splits which is common fault .

check all the vacuum pipes going to turbo wastegate and throttle and swirl flaps,check the wiring plugs going onto egr valve and also check that the inlet manifold and egr are not coked up,this is quite common at high mileage

Really am hoping some one can help with my problem also, i have a 3.0 v6 ctdi and my problem was the turbo broke with black smoke coming out the back, i had the turbo replaced and it now drives.
When i drive the car the engine mangment light comes on and i lose all my boost when the engine under pressure also.

i have changed the boost sensor and checked all hosses, checked egr and its ok, when pluged in its faulting on low boost, dont get it?
All wires have been tested also so not sure what to do next Help!!!
