1. 9 TDI & 1.5 TDI: Tips & Tricks for Drivers

I think I might have a small problem with the intake pipe that leads to the turbocharger. There seems to be a dent on the right side, and I don't think it's supposed to be there. Could any of you 130 and 150 TDI drivers take a look and see if your intake pipe (made of aluminum) looks the same, or if the dent is missing? I've uploaded a photo of the part under the link below.

Thank you in advance.

There's no dent in my 130mm pipe.
"But there are different pipes, I'm not sure if that's normal. Just take it apart; it's only two spring clips and two screws."

Best regards, Rainer.

Hi Nicolaus, I'll check on it tomorrow and get back to you. I also drive a GTI (150 hp).


Best regards,

Sebastiaan.
