Default watch my video...need help!

A few weeks ago...my car was acting up and was hesitating when pushing on the gas. The rpms would jump up and down...at the same time the rpms would slowly drop down to "0" and the car would die. When I tried to start the car...the car would start but die right after and maybe would stay longer if i had my foot on the gas but again would die after i took my foot off of it. I do hear a 20 sec whining sound from the TB but after the car dies...

i took off the turbo and found out that it was blown and figure that it was the culprit....after replacing it yesterday with a oem k03, it didnt help!.....now the car is making is loud whining sound near the turbo when the rpms are rising....and also...the car would die or stutter when starting or trying to put the car in drive, the same as before....please help!

video provided...one video lets you hear the whining sound when the rpms rise and the other shows the rpms acting up...please help!

btw: i replace the sparkplugs, temp sensor, engine oil, and air mass sensor and new k03 turbo...no other modification done besides lowering and rims...car has 157k miles.

Well,
A. Never replace a turbo without changing the oil feed and return lines, because if the feed line is clogged you just blew another turbo.
B. You my friend need to invest in a vag com www.ross-tech.com. Its basically a software program you can download to your lap top, you just have to buy a cable so you can diagnose your car. We need fault codes.

If you want, you can have autozone pull the codes then post them here so we can tell you what they mean. If you can get there of course.
