I don't feel the boost anymore...I thought it was just me but its really gone! I looked through the archives but no real pin-point answer. Any information will be greatly appreciated!<p>Thanks...

My '97 1.8T is at the dealer right now, he suspects that the turbo wastegate rod is broken. As it and the turbo are one unit, I'll be getting a new turbo.<p>Car feels normal putzing around town, but feels really sluggish at freeway speeds or when you really stomp on the pedal. The car is still driveable, just slow. The shop forman who went for a ride in my car explained that if it was a seized turbo, the car would be extremely slow, like not even driveable.<p>Hope this helps, if you want more info, email me.<p>Andy Hedin<br>'97 A4 1.8Tqms, Wett 1.0 Bar (removed for trip to dealer), ABT Filter, Tint
