      I second that. A little late to the turbo party, but Robin, you put this together exactly how they all should be. Thank you. Hope you are doing well. P.S. I am new to VW/Audi turbo chargers. I've got a 1.8T, new to me, seems to run okay, no MIL, but I can't hear the turbo charger at all. Is this common?

    This is fantastic! Replicating multiple different sounds and smoke is something that I've never seen before on TH-cam videos.
    My car is currently cutting out immediately after it starts up, but when I disconnect the turbo actuator, or the wiring connector to the actuator, it starts just fine, but obviously runs a bit weird driving without the turbo. And the actuator is not sticking either, and I just cleaned out the turbo last year.

At first, I thought It could be the head gasket and I'm still not completely sure it isn't but after watching this I think it's the turbo. Appreciate the help man!

    I have seen many videos, your videos are the best and clearest about turbochargers. No doubt oil is very important for a turbocharger to work and last long time. In m case I have bought a BMW. After 20000km the turbocharger crash. When Ifollowed the service history, I found from 2015 to 2016 the car has driven over 40000km on the same oil. And from 2016 to 2017 passed over 43000km. No wonder my car has got a lot turbocharger problems. When I have a twin turbocharger in my car. I have two turbocharger the small one is high pressure and the big one is low pressure. There are two pair electronic ventils, 1 pressure converter and 1 charger pressure regulatorventil for the high pressure , 1 pressure converter and 1 charger pressure regulatorventile for the low pressure. So when my car do not accellerate in the low 900-2000 rpm the two components converter and regulatorventil may be faulty. If the turbocharger do no work from 2000 rpm and up the other pair of electronic parts are at fault. Am I right?

    Thanks for the video really insightful. Just a quick question. I had a mechanic come out and carry out a full service on my audi a4 b7 tdi. When he left I took it for a drive and ended up losing power after a few mins with white smoke coming out of the exhaust also have the whistling sound too. When I parked up the mechanic had left the lid loose on the water bottle. Could this have caused my turbo to blow? The mechanic is denying any fault saying its just bad luck that the turbo blew after changing the oil and all filters etc. I'm out hundreds of pounds and now have a car I can't drive....
