Hi all

Got a few issues and wondering if anyone else has had the problem

The car smells really bad of petrol and the fuel comsumption has dropped

The turbo also doesn't seem to be working right sometimes I can hear and feel it kicking in and other times I can't and the car is slUggish

Then other times when I put my foot times the turbo comes in the shuts off

I'm sure it's a split pipe somewhere but any ideas where

Cheers all

your just gonna have to eyeball all the boost pipe mate and try and see if there is a split, or bad join. Also check for fuel leaks of course, given that there is a smell of petrol.

Cheers mate thought that might be the case

worth getting the codes read aswell if you can, see what the brain can tell you

where in scotland are you?

A mate plugged it in but no faults not sure what he used though

ah never mind then, id have once overed it for ya and scanned it with vag-com.

Maybe your mate scanned it with a potatoe

Hope you get it sorted, if ever your down this way ill happily run some tests

Of you cure yours let me know what it was mate
