Help with diagnosing TT engine problem
Over the last 2 weeks I have noticed the feeling that the turbo isn't pulling/spooling up. I don't hear the familiar whoosh and the performance is way off. It has come a couple of times but always returned in a day or so. Yesterday it came and stayed and a couple of hours later the check engine light went on.
Could it be as simple as a DV? I replaced the stock with the Forge DV 2 yrs ago...
thoughts???
thanks for your input

When is the last time you have serviced the Forge?
If it has been a while, take out the valve, remove the cap, then the piston, wipe out all the old stuff and relube it with synthetic grease.

If you know the code for the CEL, it will make it a whole lot easier to diagnose.
Could be a lot of things but the code number will at least point you in the right direction.
