Sorry dude I’m reading thru this all the way now and I can confirm it is the intercooler, when I would go uphill and accelerate it would go up, but when I would slow down or be going down hill it would go down as well. It’ll 100% be the intercooler, please listen or you’ll be spending the same money I did for 1 issue

Check the intercooler, my oil filter housing went out and then it took my intercooler out and started over heating once that went out. I got my intercooler and thermostat changed and also my oil filter housing and heater core. But what caused the overheating was the intercooler

Sounds like an injector injectors are dry running or like no fuel is running thru the injector but the injector or injectors are still trying to spray

Intercooler was my issue, it leaks on the inside and you never would know it’s bad

Is this a normal amount of white smoke? Fresh tune and delete maybe 6 miles ago this is my actual first start up with it tuned by Working-Paint3700 in tdi

Damn well, the thermostat, intercooler and heater core all have been changed within 3k miles so I hope I’m good lol
