Are you trying to match your N75 duty cycle to actuator position? I don't think that's possible. Your vacuum readings sound spot on for open and close (if you were hitting full close stop (high N75 duty cycle) at less than 18" then it would seem like you should shorten the shaft. If you run...
Adjust it to around an 80mbar difference (make sure the car is fully warmed up and the AC is off). Maybe check your vacuum on the VNT actuator line during the test too.
Restrict is kind of the wrong word for the zip tie fix. It actually forces the rest position of the vanes to a slightly more...
My 2006 gelled once. Had to sit by the roadside for a day until it was warm enough in the afternoon to start. It's not cold cranking that's the problem, it's that gelled fuel doesn't flow thru the fuel system.

I sold my Jetta before I had a chance to install the front Koni Yellows and spring kit. I did test fit the rear springs but removed them right away due to ground clearance issues with my hitch mounted bike rack.

Trying to help troubleshoot my father's 2006 BRM DSG.
He has had it stall completely twice, and refuse to start. Then a couple hours later it started without issues. Both times were after at least 10-15minutes of driving in below freezing conditions.
A second issue is the car hiccups every...
I guess that's what I'll have to do.
I've already narrowed it down to the first 50% of the adjustment range.
It's a pain to pull the shocks off and remove the bump stops to adjust but getting it dialed should be worth it.
I bought the Koni Sport kit (yellows with springs that lower just over an inch).
But found the lowering wasn't really compatible with my trailer hitch and driveway. So I'm back to stock springs with yellows.
Since the rear shocks are a pain to adjust, what would the suggested setting be with...
My BRM is always running in the 5-8psi range on the highway and still gets 5.3 to 5.6 L/100km. I'm at 220,000km no problems. Blocking my egr contributed to 3-4psi of the steady boost. I guess without the EGR all the exhaust has to go out the turbo and builds more boost.
