Diesel LandCruiser 2010: Symptoms, possible boost pressure sensor faults and what to expect from the mechanic

Hey guys, I need your help. My 2010 diesel LandCruiser with 206209 mileage is really troubling me. When accelerating, black smoke comes out of the exhaust, the check engine light is on and I have a loss of power. In addition, there is jerking and a loud hiss when accelerating, as well as poor fuel consumption and a strong exhaust smell. There is also a strange whistling noise. I could bet that the boost pressure sensor is causing problems. Have any of you had similar experiences and can give me a tip on what I can expect from the mechanic? I didn't have such a great experience last time... Thank you in advance!

A 2010 diesel LandCruiser is experiencing issues such as black smoke, loss of power, jerking, a loud hiss, poor fuel consumption, a strong exhaust smell, and a strange whistling noise. These symptoms suggest a potential problem with the boost pressure sensor or a faulty turbocharger. The recommended solution is to have the turbocharger inspected and possibly replaced to prevent further engine damage.

Hi, I had similar problems with my 2007 diesel LandCruiser. Mine also had black smoke, loss of power and that damn whistle. It sounds very much like a faulty turbocharger. That was indeed the case with mine and the symptoms were very similar to yours. So you probably need a new turbocharger. Don't worry, it's a fixable problem, but it's definitely a serious problem as you suspect. However, get it fixed as soon as possible, otherwise it may cause further damage to the engine! One more thing, maybe check the oil? Burnt oil can be the result of a faulty turbocharger and cause the strong exhaust smell. Hope this helps, and have a good trip!

Hey, thanks for your quick reply! It's good to know that I'm not the only one with this problem. The turbocharger thing makes sense to me. If you could remember, approximately how much did the repair cost you back then? And were there any other problems afterwards or was your Toyota Cruiser fit again? Greetings!

Hey, sure, no problem! As soon as I picked up my Cruiser from the mechanic, the fault in the boost pressure sensor was fixed. The turbo problems really put a dent in my wallet, so I couldn't say no. The little beauty treatment for my cruiser cost me around 1070 euros. It's no bargain, I know, but since then the bike has been like new. Runs like a kitten and no more suspicious hissing or whistling. Greetings back and good luck!

Great, thanks for the info! That reassures me a little, even if the amount is not exactly low. But the main thing is that the LandCruiser will run smoothly and reliably again. I'll make an appointment with the mechanic as soon as possible and hopefully the old bugger will be back to full power soon. I'll let you know if there's anything new. Thanks again and see you then!
