I am trying to fix a "limp mode" problem on 2004 Jetta.
VNT actuator doesn't hold vacuum. I assume it is shot.
This VNT actuator is steel on the upper half and plastic on the lower half with a 3 pin conector (position sensor?) Lenco Electronics 180183.
Where can I purchase a VNT actuator with built in position sensor?
The ones I see on line are just simple vacuum diaphrams with no electrical connection.
After pumping like crazy with a hand vacuum pump, the VNT stayed in an intermediate position for a while, but now it is back to limping a lot!
In the interim, I'm trying easing up on the adjustment to not apply so much spring pressure. I don't mind not having boost at lower power levels, but the "limp mode" under demanding situations is very unpleasant.
Thanks for any help you could provide!
Grace to you and Peace
