Need help with my turbo !! NEW Fault Codes

[Nev_LCR]

you need to change that dump valve, that could clear the whole thing up.

 

[Nev_LCR]

its a commen code with VAGs, if you google it there are loads of VAG forums talk about it, might get a better answer from the audi or skoda guys.

ok i really want to but when i do that and somethings happens to the car i dont have any warrenty (i still got for 2 months) and maybe its gonna cost me alot of $$$$

but maybe stupid question. could that DV cause problems if i even dont give any throttle ? cuz it is doing that limp mode thing when i start it on a cold morning sometimes.

and is there some way to test that DV without removing those 1 use clamps? because i can hear the DV give a small whistle when giving throttle, and when shifting

 

[Nev_LCR]

no way of testing it, you just need to change it, its a common problem, the standard ones are rubish.

Witalik,

Just install the forge dv, easy job and if you need the warranty you can always put back the oem dv.

Cheers,

Stephan

Hey,

Yeah i am gonna change the Tip as well if i do the DV, they can see it if i do the DV also. (because of the std. 1 time use clips)

But i am just gonna replace it, i dont expect any help now from that dealer so

Maybe handy to go to another dealer and ask them for a second opinion ?
maybe http://www.vandervelden.nl/ ? (does also jd chiptuning)

btw see my post on seat-online about the rr you did, speedcentre doesn't have enough cooling

your turbo problem....

Hi, you are experiencing the same problem that I have just had with my FR.
When you decellerate the waste gate opens to let out the pressure but sticks open, when you change gear and then apply the accelerator the turbo spins and all the boost goes out the waste gate as it is open.

My local dealer replaced the turbo under warranty even though the car is 4 years old, try your local dealer, you may be lucky enough to get a replacement as a sympathy claim, good luck!

that's one helluva top dealer to do that. Nice one. Make sure you give them credit in the "Seat Dealers Your say" group on here.

turbo problem

Chhers, lucky I know.
I found the car in the UK by chance, some previous owner (64 years old) had the car from new, 4 years of dry motoring under 50MPH and its all mine!

Someone must be smiling on me.

 

[Witalik]

Yeah i know they will never change te turbo...

They say the car runs fine....

They rather see me going away... they are amateurs

Problem turbo

Thats not nice, the reason you lose boost is because the gate sticks open, when you switch off the engine the systems all reset themselves, the gate closes on the turbo and it runs fine until it sticks open again, get a replacement turbo I beleive is the only way to cure it. Good luck.

 

[Witalik]

Well, i think i just need to change the dv

because why dont i have it now ? when it is warmer like now, since then no problems...

 

[ballachrishan]

I don't know, mine ran for days without a problem then the next minute after changing gear the gate stayed open and no boost, pull in, switch off and then hey presto, no problems again they are temperamental, I have heard of two other faults the same 1 on a Leon and the other on a Skoda Fabia, it must be common?

 

[DDX]

That's why I suggested to go for a second opinion before the warranty ends.

 

[Witalik]

yeah but then i need to pay that other garage, and if they find anything its only a question if the dealer is going to fix it on their costs...

He also told me that the fault message is triggered because there is a chip installed from ABT :S

(so thats why their credit of proffesionalism is long gone there)

Hi there I know it's an old thread but did you ever get this problem sorted as I've got the same code?
