Hi all,
I have a bit of a problem & would like to know what is going on. Yesterday I took my 2005 seat leon fr tdi out & a wirling sound started coming from the back / drivers side of the engine. I have lost all power. It have been remapped to a stage 2 & is running aprox 200 bhp with 330 torque. I think the turbo has blown but there is no oil coming out the back of her. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!

Just to add it also seems to be using more fuel & it struggles to go over 40 mph

As said could be a boost pipe but I would expect smoke. Get vagcom on and check for fault codes

Hi all,
Sorry its took so long to reply but I have been away. just found out a shaft in the turbo has gone. this was found by sending the turbo off for testing. no smoke was coming out just what was mentioned above. thanx for all ur help lads, looks like a new turbo though. ouch lol
