I have 06 jetta TDI.
1) About 3 weeks ago low coolant alarm went off, added coolant and was good for a day so I realized I had leak. Found leak from small hose for EGR cooler. ordered part and drove 2 more days till hose came, low coolant light came on a couple times but never raised engine temperature. will it damage EGR cooler driving car with low coolant.
2) after driving a couple hours a week later was going up small incline and I could feel it all o f the sudden loose power, I think the Turbo cut out. When the engine cools or I think when cut off and restarted it works again. it will go a couple of days and power cuts off again. It is happening more often now. i also hear load exhaust from the rear like back pressure not a leak.
I put scanner on it and got a P2112 Throttle valve stuck closed code and a 299 pending for super charger/turbo under boost. Reading some of the Forums I found a throttle body for $40.00 and bought right then for that price. I am hoping this is the problem and not the turbo itself.
Would like some feed back if anybody might know what the problem might be.
3) Can I use throttle body cleaner in the throttle body on passenger side and the air intake on drivers side that looks like it goes into Mass Air sensor, ERG and turbo.
i leave in the N. Virginia area if someone is in the area.
Thanks Chris
