Jetta 4 1.9 TDi - Turbo Actuator NEEDED Urgently

Post by Kinja69 »

Good morning,

Yesterday i took my car in for a full service cam bet etc etc etc.

Also did a replacement on all the vacuum hoses. In this process the turbo Actuator broke. The plastic was very brittle. Anyone have the same issue with this?

And where can i get a replacement as Goldwagen dont sell them and i cant get one from VW Agents either.

This is urgent.

Thnx

I think you better take a picture. I have never seen a turbo actuator in plastic. Are you talking about the n75 valve rather?
Actuator is a thing that is bolted to the turbo itself and maybe that is why goldwagen is telling you they don't sell it as it normally comes with the turbo.

Mine broke aswell.Blocked the pipe of.
Tubro poped and fed the engine with oil. Shaft did not brake just the seals. Luckly I left the valvle in tact and just jumped out and closed it.

Dude you switch it off, jump on the brakes and drag it dead. No need to jump out and shut stuff. There are very few cars in the world that has an engine that is more powerfull than the brakes and a mk4tdi ain't one of them.

Get it fixed. You never know. What happens when u sell the car and the next owner doesnt know. Before I would have also said leave it. But not after what happend

Jumping out and closing the valve seems better than stressing the clutch that has already seen alot of km's.

But thats just me. I would get it fixed.
