Think I got my 007p a few months back from DPM. It was the best price I could find

Yep. The light can come on for a million and one reasons. Just wait till you see what VAGCOM tells you and take it from there.

vagcom results - p0030#10 h02s heater control circuit bank1 sensor 1
                       p0135#10 02 sensor heater circuit

got my mate to clear it after, gave it some beans on the way home and it hasnt returned , maybe a 1off ?
it didnt show up any boost leaks so do you guys the poor power delivery is down to the quality of the re-map? hopin the n75j / diverter valve mod / 007p  will iron it out a little

Fault code reader / VAGCOM 9/10 will not pinpoint a boost leak by scanning the modules

You need to do real world live data logging and monitor things like MAF and if you can intake pressure (can't do this on an AGU mind)

Or get yourself a boost gauge  :smiley:
