| Seemed like I lost my turbo this morning on my b5 tdi. Had very little power but after i drove about 6miles it all seemed ok. I thought a boost pipe had come off but it can't be that cos its working again now. Any ideas what it might be? | |

| sounds like i went into limp mode for alittle bit to me, try putting it on vagcom if you can, could be that youve got a small bost leak some were and only leaks when cold but once its warmed up closes the gap | |

| air mass meters play up aswell if happens again try disconnecting and driving. it will go into a default setting and should feel quick again. but boost soleniod sounds more at fault.  | |
