[Vwdiesel] 01 Golf TDi TURBO issues - UPDATE

[Rolf Pechukas]

$300+ more to my local shop yesterday
(god, it's so lame not to be doing my own work - but I have no space, no time, and am still recovering from shoulder surgery - grrrr)
anyway,  they cleaned the intake manifold, replaced the vacuum tubing (including a split brake boost line - brakes way better now), and were able to actuate the turbo by bypassing the N75 and plugging vacuum to the EGR
bottom line - I need both N75 and EGR
any suggestions where to go, whether to buy junkyard EGR, etc?
light at the end of the tunnel
thanks
