Title: turbo actuator and vacume???
Post by: christianduncan on 01 July 2009, 13:36

hi,

my turbo keeps intermitently going off on my golf gt tdi 110bhp.  today i manged to get it up in the air and looked at the actuator and the vacume that is attached however the vacume has a hole in it.  will this cause loss of power every so often and how much am i looking to replace? 

thanks

It would mean that the actuator wouldn't work properly. pop to vw and see how much the part costs. hopefully that is the cause of your problems  :smiley:
