1.9td xantia the turbo on this car does not seem to be working,
exhaust noise / blub blub, from behind the inlet manifold but exhaust is not blowing rag at rear and you get your hand blown off, car lacks power and over heats to 110 degrees on a run new water pump new rad new stat, still the same car only runs at 85 / 90 degrees when left standing fans click in at 90 degrees, does not use water or oil regular fuel / air / oil filters.
68000 miles.
could this be a pipe off, gasket, air cooler, and would this cause the car to overheat on runs.
can i test this in any way.

First check pressure feed between fuel pump and pressure side of inlet system a leak in this one would cause under fuelling and poss overheat on a run and not idling (no turbo fuelling)not sure where that one goes on xantias.Otherwise have a look at the turbo wastegate it could be stuck, if its a garrett one you could have a look at the actuator linkage, it doesnt move far but some lubrication and a judicious wiggle may help,.
