please help TURBO NOT WORKING! UPDATE***
« on: 03 February 2011, 20:05 »
Well just been to shop and car was running sweet. Got bk in car and was just driving normal and thourt I would give it a blast nothing there at all. Boost gauge going from -20 and then sticking at 0. Can't here the turbo when I rev . Or Here the whoosh off the carbonio.  No chatter off wastegate either. Only two fault codes there is are 17963 charge pressure maximum limit exceeded ( intermittent ) and a lambda fault. Had them to before and car was ok. No blue smoke or nothing. Any ideas guys?
