Help please - alhambra / sharan po299

[newmatbat]

Hey Guys,


I’m new on here but could sure use some help. Please!!! My car is a 2012 2.0 Seat Alhambra. 103Kw 140BHP (50,000 miles)


Around 2 months ago I got stuck in mud and my wheels were spinning a lot. I eventually got out with some pushing.


On the drive home after on the motorway the car went into limp mode with the coil light etc. (first time ever) The fan is also very noisy in the engine bay even after short journeys.


Anyway, now when I drive the car and the revs hit 3000rpm it cuts in to limp mode straight away. I have to turn ignition off to reset it.


So, I went to my local mechanic (very experienced) and we get the fault code PO299. Turbo under boost.




SO FAR WE HAVE CHANGED (in change order) -


- EGR VALVE


- TURBO PRESSURE SENSOR


- TURBO ACTUATOR


- TURBO CLEANER


- ADD BLUE INJECTOR


- SMOKE LEAK TEST


- CARBON CLEAN THROUGH


- TURBO


So I'm at a loss. I have spent a near fortune on this now and am hoping one of you lovely people maybe able to shed some light on it.


The only things I can see to try are


- Double check leaky hoses ?


- Turbo Diverter valve ?


- Clogged air filter ?


Thanks so much,


Matt W
