Car goes into limp mode after 60MPH

[Usmxn]

Hi guys,

My car seems to go into limp mode after 60 MPH, not sure why.

I have changed a boost control sensor but that did not fix my issue.

The fault code present after a VCDS scan is shown below.

Possibly sticky veins in the turbo. There a product called revive that has got good reviews

Just an update, had a garage take a look and changing the sensor made no difference so they think it is the turbo actuator
