Hi I have had my gti for about 3 weeks and noticed when u accelerate u get boost and then about 3000 rpm I get a wooshh like a dump valve is going off but got a standard recric and loose boost if I keep my foot planted it picks up slowly. If I chance gear I get boost again than does same again. Any ideas anyone?

Scanned for fault codes? Is it mapped?
-
Look around for any splits in the boost pipes.
-
I keep getting engine man light on and coming on with lamda sensor. I got told its mapped but not to sure. It doesn't feel that fasted. I have had a look around pipes but canrt see out really.

Then its most likely in limp mode

How would I know that mate get it plugged in?
-
Yes scan it. Constant driving limp mode aint good. So if becomes obvious by the fault code what it is then sort it bud before cause damage other bits :wink:
Use rosstech faults code page bit description on what codes are
-
Cheers pal. I get lamda sensor sorted that's what I am getting. And fuel trim fault code not sure if that's something to do with lamda.

try not planting ur foot and try accelerating slowly,

It still does it mate just a bit later on the rpm. Or when u get it under load too.
