gt tdi 115pd engine sluggish...?
« on: 19 December 2010, 08:42 »
Down on power, feels like there is not much boost.. Looking to buy and repair.. What's the worst case?
How much for a turbo?

Yeah trust me mate, it could be all sorts.
Best bet with these dervs is get it scanned and it may give you a pointer as to what the problem is, if it doesn't then good luck and make sure you take it to a mechanic that can look at it throughly for you and knows the derv Golfs like the back of his her hand as that is priceless for this motor.

Could be anything from a blown/stuck turbo, boost leak, broken unit injector etc etc
