Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Tiguan 5N No Boost, No CEL.

    Hi guys

    I have a 2010 Tiguan 2.0 TDI CBAB the car has no power and is not generating any boost. I first checked the VNT actuator with a vacuum pump and this is actuating as it should in fact it will create some boost when I actuate it manually.

    Next I checked the control solenoid and it was not opening so I figured it was dead and just replaced it but the new one was not opening either. I put an oscilloscope on and checked the signal its about 300hz with a 5% duty cycle and even when revving the engine the duty cycle does not change at all.

    I am really at a loss on where to look what fault would cause the car to not try and actuate the VNT but would also not throw a check engine light or a code ?

    Any help would be appreciated.
