My wife has a 55 plate 2.0 TDi (140) Altea Sport with 75k on the clock, we have recenlty starting have a few issues with loss of power, the car seems to go into limp home mode after about 45 mins of driving.

We have had the RAC out twice and their scan showed that a turbo boost error was recorded. After turning the car off waiting a few mins all is fine again for about another 45 mins then we lose all power again. On Short journeys the car is fine with no issues at all. The garage that we brought the car from recenrly is saying that they can not find a fault, so I am after ideas as to what this could be, or if anyone has had a similiar issues and how they resolved it.

Regards, Bill

Just an update, turned out to be sticky turbo vanes, so a new turbo had to fitted - luckily the car was still in warranty!
