Subject: 9-3 Aero boost problem


One for all you hi-tech people! Car is an Oct 2001 9-3 Aero HOT Coupe (UK). Last night it stopped - full set of master warning lights and a horrid electrical burning smell under the bonnet. AA patrol looked at it, sniffed, and said "coil pack". Replaced the DI cassette that sits between the cam covers. (Obviously not a rare problem - he was carrying one!) Engine starts fine, no more lights, no more smell. But..... Very little turbo boost (needle goes part way into the orange band and holds steady under full throttle in any gear.) Local dealership checked the computer system this morning - no fault found. Suggested I go away and see if it clears itself. I'm not at all convinced. Anybody got any clues ? David Wilson
