I have a 2022 VW Taos with 20k miles on , First my coolant light would come on almost weekly to add coolant and I took it to dealer and they said it’s due to cold weather , which seems odd because I had a 2021 Jetta before and never had issues with coolant , and then recently I had a EPC light come on 2 months ago and they replaced the whole turbo, car ran fine after and recently the same light came on and I took it in to dealer and they said “ the turbo actuator the module “ failed and they had to order the part which is apparently on back order with no ETA . So they set me up with a rental car they are paying for . But still in the last 3 months I’ve had same issue with my turbo and now I won’t be able to have my own car I pay for at least 6 months to a year +
Anyone else had same issues or similar ?

Dealer was feeding you BS about the coolant and cold weather, there's been several on the site that had a failing head gasket that was the culprit. That's a shame you've had turbo issues as well, might start considering a lemon law buyback at this point :(

Sounds like the EGR gas cooler has a leak. Your coolant will go down without a puddle under the vehicle. Happened twice to my 2004 TDI wagon and 2006 TDI Jetta sedan.
