Hi wonder if anyone could tell me if this sounds like the turbo may be going on my A4 TDi?
I was overtaking last night when it lost power and I thought the car would come to a complete stop however it did still drive but with no rev's (stuck at 2000) I continued home and all was fine in 1st and 2nd gear but upon reaching 40mph there was no power even with my foot to the floor it just wasn't responding :0(

Check the hoses between the turbo and the intercooler for tears or holes first. I had a similar problem a while ago. Replacing the fuel filter knocked it on the head.
