blown turbo causing diesel runaway
#16
I'll second how nice this isn't too. Happened to me with a ford galaxy I used to have coming off a roundabout. I didn't waste time with 5th, I left it in 3rd and jumped on the brakes. Never seen so much white smoke out the back of a car. Annoyingly, the guy who bought it wanted it driving into his trailer. I told him if it blows he's still buying it, bloody thing was perfect. Although I suspect the turbo probably packed in altogether after being stood with knackered seals for 3 months :/
