WOO! not even a week of having the TT and I'm thinking I blew a boost hose. under high boost the cat has made a "pshhh" sound, I was thinking it was a bad diverter valve or something.

Well, I was getting on the freeway, and the car pulled the hardest it's ever pulled, like, BIG difference, I shift, it pulls hard and starts dying down as that same "pshhh" sounds starts back up, next **** "pshhh pop" not a loud pop, more of just something coming un connected, like a boost hose.

the washer fluid display on the center came on following, and I immediately shut the car down. I started the car briefly and it runs/idles decently, but I know somethings not right.

a flat bed is on it's way, any ideas though? similar experience?

 

My DV hose blew off at full boost once after I installed my Forge 007 but didn't tighten the hose clamps enough. Man that was the coolest blow off ever! However my car wasn't keen on holding boost or idling for that matter afterwards. I pulled over and just reconnected it.

 

Most common spot is off the turbo and off the tb. Start there. All you need is to reconnect the clamp if it didnt fall of onto the road. There is a screwdriver with the spare tire set. You can use it to reconnect the hose.

 

alright, i'm at home with the car.

i've checked every hose, and nothing, what would be another cause of this? the DVcompletely going out? I mean, i lost ALOT of power, also, while iw as checking the lines, i pressed up against the top hose on the DV and it started letting out air, dont know if thats normal or not but i'm pretty lost now, i was hoping i would find something wrong so i knew what to fix, now i'm just in the dark for now.

 

if you got a washer fluid light.... maybe it was a SMIC hose... the left one is located near the hose to the aliens behind the bumper. If it came off with some force, it may have busted loose the washer hose.

No clue other than that.

 

i['m selling my forge 007 dv if you need it....works great and has never gave me any problems

 

Price?

this is SERIOUSLY pissing me off now, I have checked all the hose I could check, put the car on some ramps to look at the lower intercooler piping, nothing. I drove the car down the road and theres a very slight whirring noise now, but very faint, and now the washer fluid warning comes on every time i turn the ignition on, but the car has fluid. and the car isn't over heating, it's ran warn ever since I purchased it, but always runs in the same area.

 

pm me about the forge.....about your boost issue take your hand and follow the intake hose all the way down and feel if its on the turbo compressor. also they could the hoses connecting the intercooler(s) which model do you have again? 225 or 180

 

Thats a crossmember that connects the intercoolers isn't it? I mean.. it also doubles as a really big solid steel/alum pipe... but I dont think it's gone anywhere.
Unless you mean where the hoses connect on the ends of it...?

 

225

now it's throwing a CEL, i'm going to try to get the codes run tomorrow, any other ideas, i've seriously looked at everything, boost is kicking in fine, but i havent driven it hard at all since last night, just to work and back ( 10 min drive)
