Where is the boost valve on a TDI?
1) Boost pressure control valve (N75) located on the bulkhead behind the engine. (There are two similar valves with vacuum pipes going to them; N75 is the one nearest the Driver side with a white top). A vacuum pipe goes from the top of this N75 valve to the VNT operating mechanism on the turbo.

Why does my Jetta Golf go into limp mode?
If a sensor sends a signal that is “out of bounds” through malfunction or failure, the car’s computer will fall back to a safety map or cut fueling and turbo boost to prevent damage. This is because overboosting or overfueling could cause engine damage. A diesel is built more sturdy than a gasoline engine and boost spikes are normal in a diesel.
How does the pedal work on a Jetta Golf TDI?
In the mk3 TDI the pedal sensor is a potentiometer. In the mk4 TDI there are 2 pedal sensors (g79 and g185 sensors which are potentiometers), if one fails you should get an error code, if both fail the ECU will limit engine RPM to 1200. This should be obvious when reading the accelerator pedal value through VCDS.
How can I tell if my Turbo Boost is not working?
If the solenoid in question does not have a line leading to the turbo actuator, it is not the N75. Two of the ports on N75 are labeled, and the third is the vent port. Check to see if the line attached to ‘vac’ port is pulling >25inHg vacuum. If it is not; find the vacuum leak.
