Hello, can someone pls help me, I have a 1.6 golf tdi I broke down last week with the engine loosing power, I had the aa come out and he hooked his computer to the ecu and it said there was a problem with the turbo pressure boost but because the turbo is at the back of the engine he couldn't look at it as it needs to go up on a ramp, now I've been asked is the turbo whistling (which it isn't) it giving out a little bit of soot but no power goin to engine and it cuts it self off now have I blown the turbo or foes anyone no if it could be something else and is it goin to cost me an arm and a leg to get fixed as it my work horse I need it for work which puts in a catch 22 can anyone help???

the only thing i can suggest is for you to go over all of your intake piping. one way to lose boost pressure is through a leak.

the real suggestion is to have a vw technician diagnose it.

welcome to the VWOC and good luck.
