Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Turbo failed on my 2004 golf tdi (100hp) two months after i bought the car. the dealer told me this was unusual, but had to send to germany for a replacement turbo unit. the car does not seem to have the same pep since the new turbo unit was installed. i have heard of one other case where the turbo failed as well. i suspect my turbo unit has been replaced by the dealer with the one for the 90hp golf tdi. how can i find out if i have the correct part installed? *jb
