Scanned with Vag Com, no codes but the car won’t boost past 5 psi. Requested boost versus actual boost is way off.
Do I have a boost leak somewhere? I’ve already checked intercooler hoses and swapped the n75 out with a spare.
Car is 034 chipped and I have Wagner ic’s.
Car won’t boost more than 5 psi, boost leak?

What are your MAFs reading?
And your trim values?
Pull your DVs off and test them (suck test).

Had already swapped dv’s. Forgot to mention that.Shoppinit wrote:What are your MAFs reading?

I’ll try to get those other readings tonight.

Re: Car won’t boost more than 5 psi, boost leak?
Recently i just check my Intercooler and noticed the oil at the edge on both of my intercooler,
and i pressure test them, they are absolutely leaking~~
since this is very easy to check, you can check this area too when you got time.

I'm not familiar with this method - would you mind explaining in great detail?

Re: Car won’t boost more than 5 psi, boost leak?
Well... when you suck your DV off it's a blowjob. When you pull your DV off, it's the wank test.
No matter where you go, there you are.

Ah, sounds like one could really enjoy this. I'll have to give it a go.

Re: Car won’t boost more than 5 psi, boost leak?
Sorry, but no. Suspension issues were a bit more pressing due to bad drc and upper control arms. Got in to that last night, and needless to say I will never buy a car that isn’t from the west coast again. Frozen pinch bolts on both sides.Shoppinit wrote:You make any progress on this?
