Engine shut down under boost - fail safe?

We had a Tiguan which did that, ended up being water ingress into the wiring loom. :rolleye:

When my TB failed on the GTI it felt like I'd hit a brick wall and the EPC light came on with reduced power.  Started fine and didn't kill -9... sounds bloody dangerous to be cutting out like that.

Hmmm thanks. I am intrigued but tbh not overly concerned atm. Least I'm not driving it for a while. Need to pop to Blackburn from Manchester but I expect no issues as I won't be driving agressively!

I'll get sorted. Just wierd, so happened for over 2 months, yet to deterioration, and had work done since first happening again.

I also wouldn't have mentioned it but the last time it did get me thinking!

Hi Guys

Bringing this back up, still have not got to find out where or what the problem is, could it be a vacuum leak, faulty sensor, had a leaking twintercooler pipe gasket, a while back, could there be a chance oil/fluid has reached the throttle body and the flapper needs cleaned?

Had read somewhere, they had the same problem and turned out to be the DV, so was going to try a rev G on.

What would your thoughts be on REV G over the forge dv?
