audi's vacuum hosing is crappy and mine crumbled on me. so if you dont get good vacuum
to the bpv when you just released the throttle, your bpv doesnt open up, if that doesnt open up all that pressure goes back to the turbo's blades, eventually the turbo would fail

Thanks....that must not have been the problem then, because I was hearing the "pshhh" sound from the
bpv just a day before the failure...
thanks for the explanation,

A4 turbo problems
Hi guys
i have the same problem with my 1998 1.8t (clicking) an no power. It is also letting out a white blue smoke. Car idels fine, starts first turn.
Can I drive her lightly for a week or two, without doing any engine damage?
