Polo TSI 1.2 Highline - Loss of Turbo at times

Post by Rafeal08 »

Morning All

Please can someone assist and advise what could be wrong with my Vehicle.

Its 2016 model and at times it as no turbo and then suddenly its has turbo and starts building boost. This doesn't happen all the time but seems to becoming more frequent.

Can anyone advise on the cause?
