hi i have recently brought a focus 06 on a 06 plate tdci zetec 1.6 had the car since Friday 22nd may so just over a day and my engine system fault has come on heard a bang then lose of power managed to get home and was barely able to get up to speed i live near a few 70 mph roads as work daily use the roads to get to work the fan was still going when i got home for a round 2-3 mins after the engine had been off and keys taken out looked in the engine and when i rubbed down the inter cooler pipe the fan stopped have noticed a small plastic gromit pressed up against the pipe and there's a bit of rust but not willing to drive much till i can get a mechanic to look it over

please reply asap and no one say take car back as i have explored that option and all i got was contact warranty which is now closed till Tuesday and i have 3 days of work and no other car to use

can you post a picture of this plastic gromit pressed against a pipe?

was the car bought privately or from a garage?

i would not drive the car if possible to avoid any further damage

ill take a decent pic tomorrow the only place im going to drive it is to a garage tomorrow morning was a garage and i have said to them and all i got was talk to the warranty provider which i cant do till Tuesday like i explained to them was hoping to take it back tomorrow so they can fix it for me

i moved it to see if i could see anything but there was alot of air coming out where that black hose plastic thingy was i called it a gromit might be something different but only thing i can see wrong there also when car starts up makes a whinning noise

so its booked in for diagnostics at 1pm today hope they have the part that has gone wrong and can fix it today or tomorrow

TURBO HAS GONE
