Vauxhall Insignia loss of power and whooshing noise from under the bonnet
Variant: 2.0 TDI 160 SRI
Model Year: 2009
Categories:
Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
My car has lost power, it drives ok and there are no warning light at all, it will still do 70mph but takes a long time to get there. When you accelerate you get a whooshing noise from the front end, if you dip the clutch the noise goes so its only doing it under load.
Also its drinking diesel like there is no tomorrow (£20 to go 60 miles).
Any ideas?
Almost forgot its covered 83K miles..
