So, it seems the RR doesn’t want to go on holiday with us again… we go Saturday…. Was accelerating half throttle from a roundabout on dual carriageway…. Bong… no power…..

Cheers Pete. That’s what I was thinking…… it is what it is and will need to be sorted.

Took it to the garage yesterday morning. Just spoke to them and they are saying the RHS inlet manifold has split, prob explains the black smoke….. don’t know if they mean the donut or the big plastic manifold down the side…. Looks fairly expensive for a new one.

Almost certainly it's the intake the donut feeds so this won't be a cheap job unfortunatley. AFAIK the 2012 and L405 got upgraded manifolds to fix this issue. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |

Cheers, I though as much to be honest, cos initially she said cam cover. I was accelerating at about half throttle so was under a bit of boost. Hopefully the other side will stay intact for a bit longer 🤣.

Don't let them split the rear injector to get it out. Cheers

Thanks. I read about that I think on a post that came up when I did a search. Will tell them tomorrow.

Doesn't sound unreasonable for the work involved and it has to be done. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |

Indeed. They missed off an injector refit kit, as obviously need 4.
