Driving along in 2.7tdi then suddenly loses power and smoke from exhaust and glow plug light flashes if u turn ignition off then back on while driving it goes back to normal with no light or smoke
Please help as getting annoying and dangerous to drive now
Thanks
 
Turbo actuator or turbo I think. I've got same issue atm but without smoke.

No point in guessing what it could or couldn't be on a modern vehicle. Get it plugged into a decent diagnostic such as VCDS!
 
I have on mine...
