Am hoping someone can help as I'm currently in Holland and dreading anything major going wrong with my A3 2.0 tdi (2006) 170bhp.
Parked the car as usual overnight and just got back in it this afternoon.
Immeadiately it was apparent that the turbo is not working as it should. the car started well but as i drive off it pulls normally to about 2000 rpm and then nothing much after that.
You can drive it by changing up a gear but am reluctant to go far. When i did try to keep it in gear and rev it more the coil warning light came on and flashed. This did not come back on after i switched off / restarted the engine.
Any suggestions for what i can look at myself would be much appreciated.
