If your Sport isn't going very well..........

Had a fellow owners car in our workshop after it has been round the usual dealership and Indi garages in Wiltshire. After checking the usual things, a smoke test revealed this. Only symptom was lack of pull, and a bit smokey.
 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀

It was on the inside so not impact damage. Can only guess it is a manufacturing fault as there isn't enough boost to do that normally. It's all hidden behind cowling a and to be fair, didn't whistle. Car was smokey and flat that was it. Can't understand why no one detected boost loss though, smoke meter is the way to go for boost leaks Thumbs Up 2x TDV6. SE and HSE.
