Testing AWE boost gauge buzz in 2009 VW GTI

Testing the AWE boost gauge needle flutter, which is a common problem when using mechanical boost gauges. I have two restrictor fittings as well as a fuel filter buffer, yet I still have the flutter you see in this video. This is a gauge problem at this point, since there should be no flutter with all those restrictors.

I just ordered mine yesterday. Have you found a fix to it, or was it just the gauge?

@danman132x it was a bad gauge, and i got a warranty exchange.

if you have all your proper restictors in place, then its the gauge. AWE might be able to warranty it.

Hi, I have a 2006 GTI and I have the same AWE Boost Gauge and it does the same as your, when it was new I didn't have that problem but after 10 months its doing it. Any idea what would be the cause.
