lack of power
Hi, I have a Citroen c5 lx diesel 110bhp, there's a lack of power and its quite slugish on acceleration, I hear the turbo whistling but have no boost until 4000 rpm, what could it be?

Re: lack of power
If you can hear the turbo the first thing to check are the hoses from turbo to intercooler to engine, I would suspect either one has come loose or split, or it maybe a leak in the intercooler.
