I was just sitting in traffic for a minute (car accident ahead) and once i was able to accelerate again the clamp of the left turbo hose came off and i had power loss (i actually could head a little dang since window was open). Drove to the dealer (luckly only some meters away) and they fixed the clamp again.
Did this happen to anyone else yet? I suspect the OEM clamps might not be sufficient for tuned cars (due to higher pressure).
My dealer is ordering stronger clamps now....
Good....bad.....hey i am the guy with the RS6!
lol, you are a lucky bastard.
This seems to happen on a number of different turbo cars, how much power are you running now?
well its ABT tuned 700bhp. it hasnt happend again yet...so i guess it was just because of the hot temps...lets see.

I had a hose clamp pop off at the track, running chipped. I cleaned the hose and clamp, put it all back together, and ran the rest of the track day, and it's been good since.
