Nissan Qashqai - Qashqai 1.5tdi Rurbo - REVIVE question - Trail71

Having turbo/boost issues on my Qashqai

Have been recomended to try Revive Turbo cleaner - which involves disconnecting the turbo inlet and injecting the solution directly into the trubo intake after the MAF sensor

Problem is - the car just wont start if the turbo intake pipe is not connected

Is there something obvious I'm doing wrong?

Thanks

Can’t see any reason for it not starting with the intake pipe off . Have you tried with the maf sensor disconnected? This will put the system into default mode . This may cause the Mil to illuminate.

Hi mate

Yes - have tried both ways - I disconnected the intake and tried with the MAF plugged in ad not plugged in

Assuming I'm disconnecting the turbo inlet - from what I've seen on line - I'm pretty sure it is

Am I getting the two intakes confused?

Possibly. Follow the pipe from the air intake filter down to the turbo . This is the pipe you need . Could be the one on the left .

It’s the rubber ribbed pipe that you have marked #2 which is the air intake pipe .

Thanks all

Revive has now been sprayed in - and so far - Limp mode seems to be fixed !! (fingers crossed)
