Default turbo's dieing on my beemer
I think....

serious lag and major flatspots when im trying to join motorways on the slip roads I have to disenguage the gearbox rev the fooker to 4krpm then re engague to get any usefull power to safely enter motoways foot right to the floor sitting there at 1.5k~2k rpm which is roughly where the turbo should begin to spool up and kick in does it in every gear from first upwards even when I boot it.

but instead I crawl onto the motorway at 40mph

but once im up to speed all is well I think my cats died too so that may be causing problems (rattles at tick over) engine management possibly

any idears guys ?

im gonna drop it into the garage when I get back perhaps the ECU is playing up and not spooling up the turbo (the car has urban driving and motorway driving settings which are sensed so the turbo dont kick in when ur pottering around town to save fuel)
