Default CEL and Check Engine light is on.
There is no power, i step on the throttle and nothing, and no boost whatsoever either. Last time i drove the car everything was fine. I washed it and then the CEL light came on. I might have gotten something wet and fried a sensor, thats the only thing that i car think of. Any thoughts???

Thanks, i already searched the forums and found a buch of different things that it could be.

Default Do you have access to a vag-com?
The codes will give you a good idea of where to start....

Default P1639 is the code that is faulty...
It is something with the throttle, does anyone know how to fix this without taking it to the dealership...
Thank you evey one.
