Try Google the part number - you are not alone.....

Found out quite a lot about faulty Golf 2.0 gti turbos which have a very similar part number (ends in 702T) but it seems there have only been a couple of 701T failures and the 701T isstill the latest revision and being fitted as replacement on the Polo, so maybe I just have bad luck ...
