If its that bad id suggest turbo off job and give it a good clean!
Do you drive slowly?
Surely it can't be the turbo it was only put on last November and the car has been doing this for a while, could it be the remap?

There should have been a bit more info on the first fault code which would maybe give you a more detailed fault. What's the code you had, copy it word for word and repost.
Just check the vacuum pipes are all connected and not leaking/split.
Not sure about extra details as I had it plugged in at a garage, :/

18263 - Powertrain Data Bus: Software Version Monitoring
P1855 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
Any further details??
P1556 - Charge pressure control.. Check your vacuum pipes
That's pretty much word for word as it came up on the scanner. When you say check them you mean check they are connected or take them off and blow them through? I had a new boost pressure box or whatever it's called when I had the hybrid fitted because the previous one was nackered.

I've got the txautosport inter cooler and I only drive slowly to work and back which is about a 22 mile round trip, the rest of the time I'm pretty heavy footed
it's never cut out around town and doesn't cut out if I'm flooring it on the motorway only when I'm driving tidy, J.E

Thanks for the replies, i had it scanned a few weeks ago and it came up with P1855 P1556, have searched them on the forum but but can't make sense of it. Not sure that the mr muscle trick is though. Lol

Hi everyone,
I have a problem with my car that local garages and myself are struggling to identify.
It keeps going into limp mode, when accelerating gradually up a slight incline. Also the sound of the car goes a lot deeper when it's goes into limp mode. If you turn it off and back in whilst going it resets but goes back into limp mode if your still going up the Incline. there is no sound to the turbo when it cuts out. I've checked for boost leaks, and cannot find anything obvious and have changed the map sensor, it improved the acceleration slightly but did not solve the problem. I'm running a pd150 hybrid around 200 bhp with a small fmic and the egr has been blocked off. Any help would be really appreciated as I'm pulling my hair out here as driving 10 miles to work usually results in having to turn the car off and back on about 3-4 times.

Hi all, looking to buy a lsd, updated clutch and flywheel and a new set of coilovers for my car..... Have had a search through the forum but can't make sense of much :/
Been looking at quaife lsd's on demon tweeks but when I put my car details in it only comes up with chain driven option, but I'm sure it's not the rite one :/. Thanks in advance for any help/ links

Hey guys, just wondering if anyone has the calipers, carriers disks and pads for this for sale? Thought I'd check on here before making a trip to the local scrappy
J.E

I've done the upgrade and took a few pics, will upload them tomorrow for ya.
I got a set of 256mm discs, pads, calipers and carriers for £100 from a mk4 golf gti anniversary edition, which are the same as the octy ones anyway.
This is a long shot but do you still have the 256mm setup? Thanks

A long overdue wash and wax, currently searching for a 256mm rear brake upgrade

Whilst driving home from work at 5:30 this morning I hit a pretty large rock on the dual carriageway. Have it a quick visual inspection with a torch and all seemed fine. Washed her earlier and realised that the rock has smashed my back box and bent it up into the bumper. Also a lovely dent in the oval tip. Wonderful way to ruin a milltek exhaust tbf!!

I'm having the same problem currently :( glad of this thread... Will give it a try

Everywhere lol, had very bad luck with my car recently where I went through 4 turbos including original, the 3 that were replaced all got smashed bye to debris. All down to not being cleaned properly by the garage :(

I sold one of these for £20 the other day, was that a bad thing to do? Wasn't sure how much they are worth,
Price dependant, I'd be interested in one with the nipple for the boost gauge.
Cheers
