    Gents and ladies,

    any help appreciated on this one

    got a Audi A3 1.8turbo, 51 reg recently serviced @61k miles

    Had all the usual filters checked and changed

    Then....the problem started, as soon as I hit above 40-50mph my turbo kicks out and my temp gauge shoots from 80 upto 110-115...!!Hot air still shoots out of the vents with no retraction on the heat temp....

    so I stop accelerating and the temp literally shoots back down to 80...at which point my turbo comes back on...its like as soon as I put some pressure on the accelerator this happens...

    I can sit in london traffic for hours with no variation in the temp/turbo situation...liekwise I can go from 0-35mph flooring it with no reduction in power/increase in temp

    I am in the process of taking it in for a diagnostic...but any help rerobelms or even a half decent diagnostic garage would be greatly appreciated..

    Kind regards from SW11/Battersea

    Awaiting feedback
