VW Touareg TDI Turbo Actuator Fault

VW Touareg turbo actuator fault

Volkswagen Touareg TDI Turbo Actuator problem

 

Common problem for the VW Touareg TDI built after 2002, the fault causes the engine to lose power or judder under acceleration intermittently. The fault normally goes away if the ignition is turned off and the engine is cooled down before restarting, but the fault will always become more permanent with time.

 

These turbo actuators are not available to purchase separately from the manufacturer so you will often have to purchase a full turbo setup just to solve this issue. This needless expense, plus fitting charges can be avoided:

We have another solution – a rebuild of your turbo actuator. We can test, rebuild and provide an unlimited mile warranty within 2-3 working days.
