Re: [Peugeot-L] 1987 505 Turbo Doesn't

This is follow up report on the 1987 505 turbo I was looking at to buy. Under hard acceleration it would cut out at ~3000 rpm.

Peugeot-L responses gave me a quick introduction to turbos.

I responded to the owner that I would like to get a pre-purchase inspection. He said he would also check it out. He took it to a transmission shop and they supposedly replaced the clutch packs (ZF4HP22).

Has anyone come across a transmission problem with symptoms similar to boost cutout? I'm guessing there was a transmission problem he knew about, but I didn't recognize. I also wonder if the cut out was fixed, but since he now wanted $1,500 more for the car to cover the transmission work, I declined even going back.

But thanks for your help August, Rabin & others - all the information you provided is also helpful for the recent TD purchase, and more questions will be coming.
