1.5 tsi reliability

More likely to be at the inlet manifold end of the turbo output charge pipe.

I feel VAG have moved on from this engine, well the earlier variants at least.

But once can hope!

Anybody know where the throttle body is located on the 1.5 TSIs? As in is it under the air box for example or more under the intake

Checked the workshop manual bit confusing.

Thinking maybe to inspect the throttle body and give it a clean if necessary

What are the typical demands for ACT?

I feel my car doesnt really go into ACT as much as I'd expect even with cruise control on at a steady speed.

Only ever really see it on deaceleration, even when im trying to be super light on throttle.
