Turbo Light Whats that?

[skippernicky]

I've just read a thread where someone mentioned a turbo light. Is this a "fault" light or does it simply indicate the turbo is working?

If you can get it to take off like a scalded cat from the lights etc, it's cut in

Seriously I think it's an always running turbo, as opposed to how the old rover 1.8 SLD engine (a two faced engine with bugger all power until 2,500 then hang onto your hat)

nickky you'll hear it wizz as you use the car if your using it for towing this will be more so as the turbo works more as its under load, dont forget aswell that after towing or heavy driving leave the car to tick over for at least a minuet to allow the tubo to slow down and everything in the engine to settle as if not this will shorten the life of the turbo.
