Hello
When I bought my 1.4TDI Sport almost a year ago now, the dealer said that when coming to halt, before turning the engine off I should wait a few seconds.
He claimed that because the turbo was working all the time turning the ignition off immediately you stopped could cause potential turbo problems in the long run.
I have scrupulously followed this advice ever since but just wondered whether other members do the same.
PS. I also wait until the OK goes out on the DIS before starting up the engine. Mind you, that's a touch of OCD.
