Hi.
As far as I know, all PD models have a VTG turbocharger.

A bad suit is a symptom...
If you mean "causes," then yes, of course.
One thing is the usual filter issues (which tend to become noticeable primarily in the higher frequency range).
and specific PD (partial discharge) problems with the injectors, which occasionally fail.
Besides these major issues, there are also numerous minor problems that can occur (in every car), usually somewhere in the electrical system (e.g., relay 109 - if PD models also have this part. I haven't seen a wiring diagram yet).
