Can anyone help with Turbo Fault Codes?

Can anyone help out with the following fault codes please? Ignore the mass air flow code as I'd just put a can of egr cleaner through before the fault code read (after the fault).

My SD4 with ~120k on the clock went into limp / restricted performance mode on friday and I ended up getting recovered off the motorway. started up on saturday morning and was fine, not even the check engine light was on. I drove it locally saturday and sunday, did about 40 miles without an issue, but turbo feels slightly down on power and seems to be less smooth than usual under load.

Garage have cleared the codes and said to drive it until it goes into limp again so they can see which code triggers again.

Has anyone had similar codes or know what this is likely to be? I dont want to get stranded on the motorway again really.

thanks

Andy

So found this ^^ topic which seems to cover all the bases, turbo actuator is dying slowly. At 120k miles is it risky to just replace the actuator or should the whole turbo be done? Or just get a garage to inspect it and see?

thanks

At 120,000 miles yours is still a youngster, ours was 185,000+ miles when she went to another owner, the engine never missed a beat in all the years we had her, and was sure that it was good for another 100k.
Point being if she has had oil and filter changes on the dot and good quality oil, then then why would you think of changing the turbo when she is only half way through the expected life?

Then again as a 2008 model no DPF Tangiers Orange - gone, missing her
Replaced by Ewok what a mistake - now a happy Disco Sport owner

Its always been serviced on time and most of the time I've done oil only changes at half intervals (filter is such a bugg*r to get to) in addition to the 16k service intervals.

still running very nicely apart from limp mode Laughing

Just guessing, but could this be sticky vanes on the turbo causing the actuator to not be able to move sufficiently ?

The JLR manual explains how to free up the turbo vanes and lubricate the actuator connector. Note: the vanes should only be wiggled to free them up with the actuator disconnected from the turbo. Jules
