1.8T engine management light on. Help!!!!!

Post by theh33d »

OK I have recently purchased a 1.8T estate with 83K and full service which my wife drives most of the time.

When I phoned home yesterday my wife has informed me that the engine management light has come on and there is no turbo boost, the car is still running ok but no boost!!!!!!!

I have read a few posts and the problem seems to be pointing towards the N75 Valve or the MAF sensor I was just wondering if anyone else has had the same problems as my self and did the management light come on with them?

The car will be going into the garage tomorrow for a code check but any help would be most appreciated.

It always happens when I'm stuck out in the middle of the North Sea on a Oil Platform X(
