Turbo not kicking in
hi,
I have a 2001 a3 1.9 tdi and for a few weeks now i have not had any turbo boost. Its like im driving a bus and is so slow it makes me want to weep.
have replaced MAF, didnt fix it.
Have replaced N75, didnt fix it.
what other options do I have?
thanks for any help.

Just curious why do you say the turbos no kicking in? Do you have a boost gauge?
If you do does the gauge read in -ing at idle? Does it move at all when you press the gas pedal?
Does it idle normal? Any vac leaks?
Not a big time diesel mechanic. Just using my petrol expierience here

No I havnt got a boost gauge. Basically I mean I floor the car in 2nd and no soot out back, no power and basically labours slowly up to speed with high revs. What is idling normal? And how can I check vac leaks? Desperate to fix, just been on a long drive and I can't believe the amount I pay for insurance for the speed I get. Thank you for the help.
