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,

  • Boost Leak, Help meeeee

    My lil 9n3 gti has recently started having a boost leak, once i reach around 2.5k rpm and it starts getting reasonable boost, the normal sssss turns into a shshshhhh and sounds really flat and looses power. I dont think its the n75, as its not an on/off/on/off whilst boosting its just a constant hiss. Checked vacuum lines to my blow off valve and nothing seems to be wrong.

    Any suggestions would be great!!

    Diverter/blow off valve stuck open?
    Otherwise, just follow the boost pipes from the turbo and check each connection one at a time until you find the bad one.
