    Turbo overboost & limp mode

    I had problems with limp mode and turbo whistling noise recently. Audi said no loose hoses and turbo needed to be changed. Another workshop said the same thing. Limp mode has gone now, so after they have fitted the hoses after diagnostics they must have fixed a leak. I do need a new turbo...

    Replacement of turbo in 2.0 TDI

    Well I have now had 2 workshops look at the sound coming from my turbo, and they both say that it is definately coming from the turbo and not loose hoses etc. IT NEEDS REPLACEMENT :( So the second workshop gave me a better price than the audi shop, but it is still around £800-1000... I checked...

    Big wheels, Offset, Spacers etc. Need some advise please?!?

    the standard s-line rims are 7.5x17 with 225/45-17 I have 8x19 ET44 with 215/35-19 and no rubbing, so i would advise you to get this for 19". 8.5x19 with 215 tyres should work if you have ET45 or higher and remove the screws in your arches. All this is based on you lowering your car with...

    Turbo whistle

    Well the service has been done, and as i guessed: "The sound is coming from the Turbo" They checked for leaks in the hoses, but found nothing and checked the boost pressure which was fine. They said a new turbo was needed to fix the overboost problem, which would cost 18000 NOK (1500 squid)...

    oh no! Just realised 18s might not suit the car!

    I have ET44 lowered 50mm and 19" and no rubbing... so ET43 will be fine on a S(uv)E

    Turbo whistle

    It does not sound fine, it is way to high compared to when i bought the car. Sound has increased in the past month, so probably a leaky hose... If only i could find some info on where the hoses are
