Hey all I have a 2003 GTI and it has about 78,000 miles on it. I had a valve replaced on the turbo after it had about 40,000 miles. Now at 78,000 miles I'm having to have this same problem fixed again. Does anyone else have this annoying problem? You'll know when the valve goes bad because it makes an extremely high pitch sound when the turbo kicks in (almost like a cat hissing sound)...
