Not Reached
Possible Symptoms

◾ Reduced Power Output

◾ Limp Mode

Possible Causes

◾ Hoses/Pipes incorrect connected, disconnected or leaking

◾ Charger Pressure Control defective
◾ Turbocharger faulty
◾ Diverter Valve faulty

Possible Solutions

◾ Check Hoses/Pipes to/between Components

◾ Check / Clean / Replace Charge Pressure Control
◾ Check Turbocharger

Special Notes

◾ If the Turbocharger is faulty due to mechanical / internal problems or the exhaust system is
restricted (typically the Catalyst) this fault may be the end result.

Gasoline

◾ When found in 2.0l TFSI:

◾ Check Boost Pressure Control Valve (N249), for cracked rubber diaphragm. A
new/optimized Valve is available under Part # 06H-145-710-D (or newer).
◾ RoW vehicles see: TPI 2016331 for details.
◾ NAR vehicles see: TSB 01-07-70 or 2013392 for details.
◾ When stored in conjunction with misfire codes and/or fuel trim faults see the notes
associated with the following faults regarding PCV failure: P2279, P1136, P1297, P1093
and/or P0507.

◾ When found in Audi A4/S4/RS4/Cabriolet (8K): 2.0l (CAEB):

◾ See TPI 2031245 - turbocharger excessive waste gate play.
◾ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efWOPtAw1Ss shows an example of excessive waste
gate play.

Diesel

◾ When found in VW Golf/Jetta (1K): 2.0l CR-TDI (CBEA/CJAA):

◾ Verify the mechanical part of the Exhaust Valve Control Module (J883) is not seized or
binding.
◾ When found in the 1.9 L TDI-PD (BLS):
◾ Check vacuum supply from the vacuum reservoir located in the valve cover for leaks.
Using a vacuum gauge, wiggle the valve cover and hose connections to check for a leak.
The following photo was submitted from a customer working on a 2010 VW Caddy (2K
chassis) with this vacuum reservoir problem (http://wiki.ross-
