Audi Tdi Turbo Failure?

[Aprisa]

Need some advice on an engine fault.

Wifes A3 Tdi has slowly reduced in power and now seems as if there is no real turbo boost at all, the engine stil runs sweet enough and has no abnormal sounds.

I have been told that ther are sometimes problems with the turbo blades? is this a servicable item and would it produce the symptoms as above. Engine has done 56K.

Any experiences with this problem?

Many thanks to the PH Knowledge Base!

It was the Air Mass Meter, and because I was pre-armed with your experiences Audi were obliged to go most of the way towards the total cost which would have been £400.

Cheers Guys
