Thanks for the quick response! Where exactly is the pressure sensor located, and how would I check for a boost leak? I'm not very experienced with car mechanics, but I'm willing to give it a try before taking it to a workshop.

The pressure sensor is usually near the turbocharger, but honestly, if you're not comfortable with mechanics, I'd suggest taking it to a workshop. A faulty actuator valve can cause more damage if not addressed correctly. It does sound like a defective electrical bypass valve to me, so I'd get it checked.

Thanks a lot for the advice! I took it to the workshop, and you were right – it was the boost pressure actuator. They replaced it for 250€, and now it runs like new. I really appreciate your help!

I had something similar with my 607. Check the pressure sensor and the turbo system for any leaks. The symptoms you described match what I experienced when my turbocharger actuator valve started to fail. Have you checked for any obvious signs of a boost leak?
