Power loss and 2 Beeps from the dash help.
« on: 08 March 2013, 08:09 »
Was driving down the motorway today at 70 and power dropped, got to an island and 2 beeps sound from behind the dash. 1.8 turbo GTi.

Fuel is just above Red. Engine light has been on but has ran normally before today. Any ideas?

Vacuum pipe leak. The code says. Loss of power to turbo. Intermittent.
