16618 - Boost Pressure Regulation: Limit Exceeded (Overboost Condition)
hi all i had the following code on my a3 2.0tdi 2004 year, and the specialist i seen says i need a new turbo , costing £1000 inculding labour, any thoughts or is he ripping me off
 
im sure things like this people say is down to the N75 Valve audi call it a pressure sensor ill b corrected if im wrong but ive heard of people replacing that with great results?
 
yes your right mate been looking at a few boost problems tonight as my a4 has gone the same way and the N75 valve is also known as a bleeder valve. tell then to get bent with new turbo and just get N75 valve. dont bother looking on ebay :idea: already been there tonight :no: and there aint any :sadlike:
