Volkswagen P0299 underboost condition repair. Fix your turbo for FREE! (VW Tiguan 2.0 TSI )
Our car had a check engine light. The code was P0299.
The wastegate on the turbo was super loose and the turbo couldn't hold pressure.
I found a video on RUclips a while ago that showed a cool way to fix the turbo on my wife's Volkswagen Tiguan for Free. I decided to try the same method.
This fix worked great! The car now has full boost and drives just as a turbo car should.
The link to the video I found for the repair idea is: ruclips.net/video/M6OkXJdhiy0/видео.html

So did it fix it, my man?
I had this code ( '14 jetta 1.8 tsi) and a very surprising fix. Had p029900 and epc with heavy throttle, especially under load. Acceleration was weak, and sounded like weird turbo noise under throttle, had turbo smoke leak test and shop diag ($170 and no leaks, they told me to replace hpfp due to fuel in the oil, which is apparently VERY rare issue with hpfp especially having no fuel pressure codes/issues etc. so questionable, but replaced pump myself anywhay since it's 160k miles on the original. After BRAND NEW hpfp install would STILL get some epc light p2099 code and then even Hide cylinder, celinder knock, cylinder pressure, and Torque limitation codes under throttle. Was going to try to replace Diverter valve as last idea hoping that was the issue. Car had mostly new sensors already except the CRANKSHAFT SENSOR. I swapped it for a new one since I only bc I already had the car on stands not expecting any affect and.... ALL LIGHTS< CODES AND ISSUES FIXED... turbo noise is gone, torque and power, acceleration are all back to normal. So $170 diag ,shop recommended $400 hpfp later did NOT fix it but $18 CRANK sensor DID. Have even redlined the engine full throttle multiple times and good great power and torque that was terrible before is all back and NO lights NO weird turbo noise. Haven't seen this reported before so maybe rare but sensor is not a hard install and well worth it. I'd say REPLACE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR IF ABOVE 50-60K MILES TO AVOD POTENTIAL ISSUES. 2014 jetta 1.8 tsi, 155k mi
Thanks for sharing! I'm glad that solved your issue and hope it can solve others' as well!
Now that’s interesting! I have ALL of the codes you mentioned (turbo, epc, hide cylinder, cylinder knock, torque limitation, etc), but none of them will set the check engine light. I guess the incidences that trigger them happen too irregularly. I wonder if changing the crankshaft sensor works fix mine too? But I’d like to know why. Why would a crankshaft sensor cause all of this?
Put back on Then Test . . . Give Results After You Drive On Freeway 55 miles Out & Back !!!😅
Two days after I did this, I drove from SLC, Utah to Tyler, Texas and then back a week later. The car drove exactly as it should. A little farther than 55 miles out and back, but does that help?
Hi there! Thanks for the great vid! Just checking to see if you still have the car and how this fix is holding up? I'm considering going this route..
Hi Josh! Thanks for watching! We did end up moving to a larger car when we had another baby, but for as long as we had the car, the issue had not resurfaced.
On my 2007 Passat P0299 was actually caused by a misfire because of a bad coil pack
2 years only , I have mine for 4 1/5 now n I got the PO299 But still runs like a champion 🏆 I do get a lil lag speeds of 35 mph streets . On freeway runs great. That sounds good but to much work. And might last for a bet. Yea it's kinda of costly but it's worth it. And it will last you an other 4 or 5 years longer. New turbo
Just got this code on my 2004 tdi golf, do you know how to check if it’s loose before pulling it out of the car?
Hi Connor, from what I understand and experienced, there is a noticeable rattle in the actuator arm. This is done physically with your hands. At 3:10 in this video you can get a good idea from Humble Mechanic. Thanks for watching! ruclips.net/video/7fk6cSDE3hE/видео.html&ab_channel=HumbleMechanic
@@bkrdr8017 hey thanks for the response and helpful video, When I was taking the turbo out and when enough parts were removed I felt for it from the top and I felt some rattle so I ordered a new one, hopefully all goes well haha
This does not apply to TDI turbo. The TDI turbo is different.
How can you tell whether Westgate valve is loose or turbo diverter malfunctioning?
In this case, I had already replaced the diverter valve and the issue remained. That made my diagnosis easier. I unfortunately don't know the best answer for your question. I did read, previously, that you can reach down to the turbo and hear/feel whether the actuator arm has a rattle. Thanks for watching!
Easily the best vid I've seen to demonstrate the issue. Actually having the Turbo/Mani out of the bay and showing us. Love it. Thanks for this.
Thank you for the kind words. Glad it was helpful!
So there’s a clip that goes on the back of the rod as well? Is it like a snap ring clip?
Yes it is an 'E type' circlip. It snaps into the groove.
Where can you purchase this clip?
I found a way easier fix without removing anything. Takes about ten minutes. Going down from engine bay top side. Use a pry bar and tweak the wastegate solenoid mount away from the turbo enought to achive preload on the gate arm. So simple!
Hey man do you think you can do a video I am just a little confused about the wastegate solenoid mount and the direction to pry
I’d love to see a video of this as well. It would be super helpful Gregory Quick!
brilliant comment ! Just done mine and got power back and p0299 gone !
@@JakezUK hi what exactly did you have to do? I'm looking to do mine
@@JakezUK is it the rod itself you moved?
Where are you located?
Could I pay you to do mine?
@@marcelo5101 Thanks for watching! While I did make the time to do this repair on our car, my purpose with this video is to encourage others, such as yourself, to do it themselves. Give it a shot! Set some time aside on your weekend or day off, check out the links to the other videos in the description that guided me on the repair and go for it!
easy job to take out the turbo???? lol
The turbo removal wasn't as bad as I had thought it would be. I was able to do it in the garage using only jack stands to keep the car up a little. I posted a link to a video in the description that I used as a reference. Thanks for watching!
my jetta is consuming a lot of oil. is it related to this?
Hello! I don't believe this would correlate with much oil consumption. My reason for this repair was low boost in the turbo. Thanks for watching!
Check your pcv vavle jetta man
Hey what’s up man, do you have a place you work out at? I have the similar issues
Hello! I did this job in my garage without access to a shop. Thanks for watching!
Gaye
Any updates on how it's holding up ?. My buddies is throwing the same code
It's doing great! Took a good long weekend trip right after the fix and didn't have an issue then or even now.
Hello what size drill bit is used. Thank you for the video very informative
Thanks for watching! I used a 1/4" bit and some oil as cutting fluid.
Use a vernier and measure the upper part ,and use a bit accordingly,
Awesome video, I'm going to try this once I find a local welder. My 2012 Q5 looks like a pain to remove the turbo, was there any gaskets, crush washers or anything else that you replaced when putting back on? Do I need to worry about oil or coolant leaking once I take it off? Thanks in advance.
Hello! Thanks for watching. The coolant lines have gaskets and the oil lines have O rings that should be replaced. The exhaust manifold has a gasket as well. The coolant will drain when you remove the lines and should be replaced with new. A more in-depth explanation of the turbo removal that helped me is at ruclips.net/video/gj7B0kZ7_pc/видео.html
@@bkrdr8017 Did you remove from underneath or from above? Damn looks more complicated than I thought, this guy took the axle off.
@@franciswhite7170 I removed the turbo from the top, but needed to pull the axle to access the hardware to remove the bracket, oil and coolant lines from below. The axle was easily removed. Remove the wheel, loosen and remove the axle bolt from the end, (You'll need leverage) and you can pop the axle out. There are some good videos on RUclips that can help. Perhaps this may help. ruclips.net/video/9m1Jz9HbmOo/видео.html&ab_channel=DeutscheAutoParts Our Tiguan didn't have the triple square bolts on the axle, but instead had a keyed spline into the transaxle.
Hello, do you think the oil consumption in my car caused by the Westgate?
Hi there, from what I could see on this repair, no. I would assume that issue to be from elsewhere.
You need new turbo
What is the name of channel you mentioned ? Couldn't get it..Thank you
Hello! The channel was Jewelry RV Me. The link to that video is ruclips.net/video/M6OkXJdhiy0/видео.html
Didn't show removal of turbo and needed someone to shoot video for you couldn't see some of repair !!
Thank you for the feedback Rob! I decided to show only this part of the repair because it wasn't widely known. There are a few videos showing the turbo removal that I had found. I've posted the link for the turbo removal above that I liked the most.
Where do you buy vw parts?
I have purchased mine from my local dealer or in the case of this clip, from VW parts Denver (vwpartsdenver.com). They tend to have good prices. With shipping, I still saved a couple bucks on the clip over buying from my local dealer. I did have to wait a week though.
@@bkrdr8017 I have my 2009 Volkswagen tiguan had the same problem with Turbo code PO299 pressure can you fix it for me. How much because when I watch the video is not a lot of work at all, also I need what parts , last thing how can I meet you. Or your phone number.........??
@@joelngandu9571 Hi Joel, the most time consuming part of the repair is the removal and installation of the turbo itself. This could be done in your garage, or driveway. For the welding, I'm sure you could take it to a local welder for the quick repair there. It appears you are in TX which would make your travel excessive for me to do the repair for you since I'm in UT. As far as parts go, I used the VW anti rattle clip. VW part# 06J-145-220-A. Thanks!
Did the MIL light come on and stayed on? Or did the MIL flash?
Flashing is misfire
@@raysouth2 i meant for code P0299 will the MIL light up or flash?
The light came on and remained until this fix.
@@bkrdr8017 thanks
What’s the part number to the clip if you don’t mind bro !
The VW part number for the Anti-Rattle Clip is 06J-145-220-A
