GTD mid-range power loss and engine warnings!
« on: 15 January 2014, 15:11 »
Hi.

My 2010 GTD has developed an annoying fault. The mid-range (1,000-2,500rpm) is rather flat and then the turbo kicks in. I also get a warning from the engine, so out comes VCDS!

My local garage want to charge a fortune to looking at the car, so I thought I'd ask the opinion of you guys before I drop some cash.

As I understand it, the issue can be one or all of the following:
  • boost pressure pipe come off (but turbo does work at high revs)
  • boost pressure pipe leaking (plausible, as higher pressure makes turbo work?)
  • boost actuator faulty (again, can it work 'some of the time'?)
  • wastegate sticky
  • some other sensor?

The error is as follows:

Is there any quick check I can do to try and see what the issue might be? I like to be an informed customer and may even be able to do the work myself.

Thanks a lots,

Some info here:

You can check the pipes yourself and do some logging with VCDS as per info in the linked thread. Could take it to a tuner and have it run on the Dyno for diagnosis as well.
