Hey guys, I've had my 09 Jetta TDI for a few days now and noticed the turbo lags pretty bad on takeoff up to around 2,000 rpms. Can you give me some recommendations for fixing this? It does it in 1st and 2nd mainly. I've searched a bit, haven't determined what I'm looking for yet. Thanks!

Bump, anybody? I'm getting ready to have the timing belt done and would really like to address this at the same time. After more driving, sometimes it will lag in 1st all the way up to around 2800 rpms and then take off all of a sudden. It doesn't always wait until 2800 rpms though.

I don't know if it applies to you, but you should search the forum for zip-tie mod.

Actuator maybe flooding vacuum. Any codes? Mine keeps blowing mounting gaskets then goes to limp mode
