[05_Passat_TDI]

Hello all, I am trying to get some help for my nephew as I can't drive down to San Marcos and his 05 Passat TDI 2.0 is in limp mode and the mechanic he took it to said it was EGR Valve (which I assume was wrong), but I bought hm one and he replaced it and now they are telling him it is the turbo. I assume they have not checked for vacuum leaks and don't even have a VCDS, so looking for a mechanic around the area.

Might try Austin Veedub - Austin Veedub
Not too far from San Marcos. I have not been there in years but they were pretty straight with me long ago and they used to have a good VW junk yard with tons of parts they hoarded for themselves.

I highly recommend Drippin' Diesel in Dripping Springs. The vehicle WILL be fixed (https://drippingdiesel.com/) correctly.
