Hi, i posted this in the Peugeot forum, but seeing its an Hdi problem, i thought i'd ask in here too.
Hi, its been a while since i've been on here, because i haven't had any problems with the car (i'm not experienced enough to offer advice either)
However my 307 SW HDi110 has gone wrong. Whilst out driving today, it stopped accelerating whilst i was driving up a sliproad. It felt like a fuel blockage initially, but failed to clear. Even the 'italian tune up' failed to make any difference. I then realised that the turbo had stopped
I've checked the pipes with a friend who knows about these things (a fellow forum user) and they are all in order. There is no whistling from the turbo (i can normally hear the turbo up and down) I can't see any excessive smoke and the temps seem normal
So two questions really. Is it safe to drive or will i cause further damage?
Any idea on likely repair or costs?

Assuming that the wastegate is controlled in the same way as the one on my C5 then it's vacuum controlled. If so I'd suggest connecting a vacuum gauge with a T piece to the solenoid to wastegate pipe, if you don't get a reading check the other side of the solenoid. If you get a reading there then check for power to the solenoid then work from there.
Hope that helps.
