200q20v Digest, Vol 26, Issue 40

[Adam Gratz]

Derek-

I've been having the same issue worsening over the last 6 months.I'm down
from 1.8 bar at full boost 6 months ago to 1.4 now. Idle is  0.4 to 0.3 down
from 0.4-0.5.  I'm not finding any air leaks and am thinking perhaps this
is the turbo performing less  efficiently?

By the way, the car has 140K, and has been very well cared for. The only
error code is 2111 (engine speed sensor, at idle), but that has been coming
up for 2 years.

Group?
