Hi, new on this forum as just bought a audi a3 2.0 tdi sport 2004 ..
Drove home 200milles , when put foot down hard turbo would go off, then turn ignition on and off would be ok again ..
Pull home into the village , boom! big noise coming from under the bonnet, loads of white smoke from exhuast and car barely moved..
Turned off and had a look nothing 2 see at dark , drove it home, slowly .. Seems like the turbo has gone or something?
never seen so much smoke coming from a car before, and looked like some was coming from rear of the engine were the turbo is located ?
Whats next, and is it defiantly the turbo ? could be any more damage , costs etc
appreciate any help advice etc
thank you
