Title: 2008 Golf GT Tdi 170bhp turbo fault?
Post by: dazgroves on November 11, 2016, 09:02:33 pm

Bit long winded this one.........
When pulling away in first gear usually feel a boost which i presume is the turbo kicking in. Feel the same when changing to second then putting my foot down. Was getting a lot of white smoke when idle so had it in the garage and injector wiring loom was the problem. Common fault apparently. Anyway got it changed and all is good regarding the smoke issue but doesnt feel as powerful when in first and especially second gear. Not feeling the boost like i was before. Is this normal and fine now that the injector issue is sorted or is it another issue? Thanks in advance for any advice!
