Title: Just sorted rear washer turned engine on then code 17705
Post by: jnufcuk on 31 May 2011, 18:27
Just sorted my rear washer out so was very pleased with myself untill i turned engine on then the EPC light came on so i scanned it and 17705 came up. Searched on here and a found a few different issues.

http://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/17705/P1297/004759

It talks about loss of boost but tbh i havent driven it yet so couldnt tell you however it seems to idel fine and drove it yesterday and seemed ok?

Also seen somewhere it talked about brake light etc.

So now im confused.com  :undecided:

What would you recommend?

17705 can relate to circ valve failing , boost pipe split or even throttle body dirty, drive it about and see how it feels, try deleting code and then see if it comes back

Check all the jubilee clips are tight on all the hoses....as said above clear the codes drive around, it might not come back for months.....
Welcome to the 17705 club.... :grin: :grin:

17705 is the bain of my fcuking life!

I have done all sorts;

replaced/uprated hoses - ALL HOSES!
All commections Jubilee clipped
Removed O ring/clip/sh*te metal charge pipe connection and replaced with straight coupling.
New one way valves
New SJP
Experimented with orientation and spring pressure of DV
New N75

Only things (Unless I am missing something) left are the turbo and the actuator.

Car has just hit 70K

System pressure tests fine, very small leakage through the block.

BUT I STILL GET 17705!!!!!!!!!

I think the longest I went without it was a month and a half! :cry:
