Hi all

I have a 2008 Golf 5 2.0TSI wagon (with the 147kW GTI motor as standard.)

Car has done 93,000km and I'm picking up a noise under boost, like a gurgle (if that makes any sense) almost like i can hear the turbo more than before.
The car is pulling well, but it threw a check light a few weeks ago, which went off after a few days.
Got a mechanic on the North Shore (In Auckland) to retrieve the error code and it was "Emissions" .

I'm wondering if the noise could be to a cat breaking up ? Causing the Emission error ? Any ideas ?

Are there any GTI specialists in Auckland ?

Thanks

Sean

try Endeavour Motors on Wairau Rd, Steve and the team are excellent and you'll see everything in there from new AUDIs to old Jags and MGs

HSP Tuning in browns bay can scan and chuck it on the hoist to see what's going on if you haven't got it sorted as yet :)
