Way home from work on Friday, as I was passing someone I lost power. GLowplug light started flashing.
Made it home and ran the codes. Got a P0299 boost pressure outside control limits, or something like that.
checked all the hoses, hoping it was an easy fix.
From the whistling noise, I'm pretty sure the turbo is shot.
It has high miles, coming up on 400k. don;t really want to drop a bunch of money in it.
Not sure what to do, it was running like a champ until this happened.
Anyone know of a yard where I can pick up a turbo on the cheap?
Least it gave me a reason to get the old Passat rolling.
