HELP!! My EcoBoost is not boosting

[loonysup]

Got in my car to drive home from work and I am getting zero boost. I hear a loud whirring noise but get no power whatsoever. I called the dealer and am taking it in first thing in the morning. Anyone else experience this yet?

Between this and the cracked windshield, week two has not been kind to my Mustang.

CAPTIAN OBVIOUS here....that sucks!

Hope you get it all worked out and the next 50k miles + will be painless and a blast.

Ultimately this my be the universe telling you to get the 5.0..

Boost leak probably. I'd find it hard to believe its toasted a turbo already.

It definitely feels like a leak as I can hear the turbo spooling up.

Pop the hood and take a look. Maybe something obvious slipped or cracked. I would, may save wasting your time at the shop.

A hose to from/intercooler popped off I bet. I had it happen to my ST.

What's the Vac/Boost gauge say?

It won't go past the zero center mark.

Check this out first -- it happened too a few ST's.

Found the culprit. Just can't reach it as the engine's too hot.

i was about to say, exactly what you just showed!

simple fix. take it to the dealer anyways though and let them clamp it down or put another clamp on it. that and so you have record of it. won't hurt to do so

Definitely agree on taking it to the dealer to show them the issue, as I'm sure if it happened to your car, it could be the fix for any other Ecoboost Mustang they get having boost problems.

Too much Eco, not enough Boost
