Hi all, I have just had my turbo changed for, what i was told, was a newly recon hybrid turbo with a gfb DV+. There was no signs of use etc at all on the turbo. Since picking the car up the it now boosts to around 22psi (original turbo boosted to around 14 psi) and when on full boost it just shuts off every time like it has reached a cut off, the car will keep accelerating but just with no boost.
I can then ease of the accelerator and it will then boost again and cut off, there is not engine management light coming up on the dash or other issues.
The garage that fitted the turbo (i supplied the parts) reckon it could be the mapping of the engine and the ECU shutting it off due to it thinking over boost or too much fuel being required.
Car is already stage 1 mapped, but I spoke to the company and they can stage 2 it to see if that sorts it out but will cost me £220! and it might not help at all.
The N75 isn't that old, but would that actually fail exactly the same time as the turbo is fitted!?
I am wondering though if it could be the actuator, is there any way I could test this theory? I dont have VCDS, I only have that Carista fault diagnosis not sure what I would be looking for on there.
Has anyone experienced anything like this before? any ideas or help would be appreicated!
