Hi all can anyone confirm if there is a limp home mode on a classic turbo 2000 face lift model?
A pigeon decided to go suicidal after hitting another car and ended up sticking to my radiator!
I ended up after a night shift driving down the motorway on the hard shoulder at 30 mph!
After a while the revs built up and it seemed to run smoothish?
I managed to pull the bird out but there was feathers all over radiator.

I going to have a look over the car after I have a sleep anything I should look out for?

 

Check to make sure theres no leaks from a burst pipe and that the flow in the radiator is not restricted.


Oh and remove any fleshy parts that might be near anything hot........the smell will drive you mad.

 

What's wrong with roast pigeon?

 

Pigeon was in one piece in the bottom left of the water rad,as looking from the front.

Just lots of feathers all over the rad and a few in the bay.

Going to check for leaks later before I go back to work.

Well i'm going to have a roast for fathers day, going to have a aperitif with it now LOL

 

Found a spilt hose which had come off, near air flow meter.
repaired that all seems ok just need to road test.

Removed all pigeon bit too ;-)
