Default Charge presure?



<FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color=red size=3> Hey anyone who has a chip and a vagcom I was wondering do you get the charge pressure positive deviation code?</FONT></P>


<FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color=red size=3>it means to much boost I was thinkin it might be normal on chipped cars because they run higher boost obviously but im not sure</FONT></P>

I have never gotten that code from my chip. I routinely peak at 15-17 psi. You should not get a code from higher boost cuz your ECU software should be tailored to accept it.

There are things that can cause you to get too much boost though - this is not normal, and I can't remember what they are.

yeah if its your wastegate your fukked. The wastegate is inside the K03 turbo and can't be fixed without replaceing/rebuilding the turbo. either way its expensive.

It could be your MAF.. That gan give you surges or loss in boost also.
