Just a guess, but I would say Boost Pressure Control Valve (N249) :)

Probably got lost in the "Great Crash of 08

Sounds like my problem mate - I've been told it's a faulty air intake pipe. My engine management light comes on and off.
Does the power come and go on yours?

Lemme know what he says would ya? I've been quoted hundreds by VW to fix it. I've been discussing it on the threads but I think I'm gonna use it as an opportunity to tune mine up a bit.

God bless credit cards!

Yes at VW so I know that's what the problem is. Just need to decide which is the best part to replace it with, and what else to add at the same time!
