Over the past year, the turbo on my 1.4 TDI A2 randomly cuts out - not too often, but still annoying nonetheless, particularly when you are cruising on the motorway and suffer a sudden loss of turbo - without the turbo the 1.4 engine is pathetic!
The loss of the turbo occasionally occurs after a large pothole, but is more likely random it seems.
However, oddly enough, a simple stop and start of the engine seems to solve the problem.
Took it to an Audi garage who (expensively) carried out a diagnostics on the turbo, and they couldn't find anything specific, they said an option was to replace the entire turbo (£2000) if it becomes a serious problem.
I was wondering if anyone else had experienced a similar problem with their diesel A2 and turbo?
