My car (MY99) is showing 1.4 Bar on the Defi gauge, when this happens the boost cuts to about 0.7 Bar and then climbs again to 1.4 and drops again, and so on. The engine, turbo etc has just been replaced under warranty so i will be speaking to my dealer about this, but you guys are my first point of contact, so any similar experiences and cures would be greatly appreciated to save me a 100 mile round trip.
Thanks
Ian.

Do a search in drivetrain on overboost or brass restrictor and you'll find loads of thread. Could be overfull with oil clogging the wastegate solenoid pipework. Dealer have an easy fix.
