trond Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I've just installed an aftermarket boost gauge.. I've got manually boost adjustment in the engine room for each turbo. No matter how much i turn on them i only a boost that's 0.5 bar...??.. Had the boost controller checked at a garage to see if they where installed correct.. They where.. Checked for any error code. Got code 55. So no problem there either.. :headvswal I've got some fuel smell from the engine. got that cause it to run in saftey mode?? And I've also got a collant leak from the hoses in front( going to replace). Can this cause saftey mode without any error code to apear??

Paul Thompson Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 They wouldn't cause saftey boost no but it sounds like thats what you have. On my car It had a previously fitted boost controller but that had been removed before I bought it and the stock wastegate solonoids had not been reconnected, it could be that. Also check all of the easily acccesible electrical, connectors, ECU temp sensor, MAF, CAS, TPS etc. etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trond Posted September 20, 2006 Author Share Posted September 20, 2006 hmmm.. would an electrical boost controller remove this problem?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkey Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 yes, electronic boost controller will do away with safety boost, however only the boost cut, the timing retardation will still be in place. Of course if it is caused by code 34 then the resistor workaround would do away with safety mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
