2003 MK4 VW Golf 1.9 TDI With MOT, Spares or Repair (ATD Engine code). Comes with electric windows/mirrors, central locking, air conditioning. Still has an MOT until October 14th. The symptoms were that the engine just cut out whilst driving.

After taking to the garage which they thought was fuel related and replacing several parts (fuel pump, filter) they found out that it would only run with the oil filler cap off. After I took hold of it I decided to see what was wrong.

With the oil filler cap off, the engine would run quite well on tick-over, and would sound like a jet engine due to high crankcase pressure, but would not rev, when the oil filler cap was put back on, the engine would stall. Suspecting an internal engine failure I decided to take the head off, and found no evidence of head gasket failure or cracked head or pistons, also pulled out pistons to check rings which were all intact. Just to be clear, the cylinder head is still removed. After more investigations and searching online, decided to check turbo which you can see in the last photo, which indeed has failed rather dramatically. The parts I took were cosmetic and will not affect the car in any way. (apart from the engine which I have stripped). Any questions please feel free to ask.
