    Turbo backfiring

    Hi all,

    I have a bit of a problem as I believe I'm getting a bit of turbo backfiring. It's not all the time but I don't want it to corse damage.

    If anyone has had this in the past what did they do to fix the problem?

    Can you get a video clip of it happening so we can understnad what you are talking about?

    Is it just the exhaust pop that the performance oriented engines make i.e. Golf GTI?
