I'm not defending VW in the least but that just sends up red flags in my eyes.
That was my first assumption when he told me, that he was doing something stupid, but no he drives a manual almost better then anyone I know.
2. He knows more then turbos then I do thats for sure.

I honestly have no idea if they were his fault or not, but I know he is a damn good driver. So that is definitely not the reason for his problems.
