No boost...help

[poweller]

Hi all,

Had no boost for several days now...changed DV, tested pcv...had a loom for some leaks no such luck. When i go to go in to the rev range for the turbo i hear a slight sound coming from the engine bay similar to injectors sending fuel but nothing else.

No engine management light etc...

Bump...shagged turbo?

[poweller]

Had a vagcom read yesterday and the only faults i got was a P1531 - camshaft timing adjustment open circuit.

And 00003 control module malfunction

Would these cause a turbo cut off?

[th3_f15t]

Quite possible, yes. If the ECU can't work out what the camshaft is doing it'll go into limp mode for safety.

[poweller]

But i dont have an engine management light...if it was in limp mode surely it wpuld come up

[poweller]

Okay...so i have sorted the error and still no turbo :/

[poweller]

Brief but this is the noise revving at idle...

I would look at the N75 Valve if you have boost problems, mine went on my 1.8T and it did not show any errors at all, but they are a pig to get to on a K03 turbo.

Any more ideas guys?? Before i f*cking dump the car

Where about are you based mate? Anywhere near a good tuning company (AKS, AMD, R-Tech ect.)? Might be worth getting a proper mechanic who tunes these engines to have a look for you. Don't loose hope (as hard as it is when things are f**king up for you).

Tryna get it sorted without visiting anyone tbh...

This is pic of the turbine...seems good and the wastegate is closed so means its not bypassing...
