hey guys,
I'm rather new to the whole TDI world, and am curious about the engine code i collected from my 2003 VW Jetta GLS TDI, reading "engine overboost condition" now what i have gathered so far is that a mechanic told me that the wastegate on my turbo charger is stuck in the open position. at this time my turbo charger has not been engaging at all in the past two weeks since the check engine light came on, and when it came on it was day one of my ownership of the vehicle and i really had no idea that the cars turbo wasnt working till my brother pointed it out.
anyway, questions are as follows...
1. do you guys think thats an accurate diagnosis
2. im pretty sure i know what the wastgate is on my car, but no idea how to remove or repair it.
3. any other ideas on what the problem could be?
Thanks a lot guys
