Hi thanks for feedback

Out of interest what was the location of
Your hose which had split. I’m struggling to work out where the turbos are and hoses which could be playing a part to check. Watched a few videos on YouTube but no real location or how to get to them as yet so trying to work it out. What I don’t want to do is start taking parts off the car to find I’m not in the right area. 😂🤦🏻‍♂️

This is needle in a haystack...

Codes do help most of the time. But a code is recorded by a sensor which in-turn has possible other items that could cause the fault. Let's say your issue is your turbo hose, this hose cannot give you a fault code. It will only be discovered checking manually. My split hose was 2 inches long and invisible until I squeezed it.

Yeah sorry didn’t think about how difficult it is to read the image. I have typed them in below if it helps.

Apart from engine management light and restricted performance we have had no other visual or worded warnings just the whoosh I talk of that is coming from the vents when pushing down accelerator,

I have old eyes, I struggled to read those error codes in the pic you posted which doesn't help...

Besides the engine management light and the MAF DTC's on the diagnostics, are there any dash warnings like 'Turbo overboost' etc?

Thanks for the support. Do you know the easiest way to check turbo hoses. I believe the turbos are situated at rear of engine.

Is it come from underneath taking off under floor or is it from the top engine bay?

It’s the 3L v6 which is believe I forgot to mention in my post. Apologies.

Does sound like a boost leak. Classic symptoms.
look for any oily residue around engine bay around the inlet pipework. My leak was invisible until I squeezed the pipe, it gave itself away by the oil mist residue around the area.

Check your turbo hoses for any splits. They might look OK but if you squish them all over you may discover a split
