Dreaded boost leak

[stebo89]

Car is back in the garage,

It's massively overboosting apparently, so he's ordered a part (forgive my ignorance) which controls the boost for the turbo.

If this doesn't sort the problem out it's a new turbo. Luckily, the garage i bought it from gave me a 6 month warrenty so it's not costing me a penny. Once this is sorted this should sort my problem out!

If it is the overboosting a cleaning of the VNT mechanism will probably cure it if it is not the N75 valve or actuator or vac piping.

have a read of this

He checked to see if it was just sticking and he said that it's moving freely, had to take his word on this.

Reading through it must be the N75 valve that's being replaced. i'm hoping this will solve it.. i've only had the car 3 months.

Sorry guys, just a silly question.

When driving with the window down, when I accelerate, I can here kind of a whistle. Is this a boost leak??

I have no idea lol

The Whistle is just the wirring of the turbo and nothing to worry about unless you are also getting loss of power.

Do you have vagcom or know someone that does?

You could do with running some logs to see what is happening
