Car is 1998 Rover 420GSDi.Has poor performance, about 75 flat out.I know airflow meter is common fault but without substituting how can you tell? Sykes ACR shows no fault codes.Can't find a screen to give airflow readings.Did a Rover 25 recently with similar fault & ACR was able to display live airflow reading which helped a lot, but still had no fault code.Do the turbos go faulty? Cust. says he can't hear turbo noise like before.
Thanks,David.
