Is this limp home mode i'm experiencing?
I can rev my car all the way to 7k rpm but i can't rev anywere if i push the pedal. I can build up boost slowly but not to 10 psi. If i push the pedal hard it cuts off immediately when i get boost.
Is this limp home mode? tried searching and found one thread and i think he had the same problem. |
disconnect the negative battery terminal, hold the brake down for 20secs, reconnect necgative battery terminal
if it goes away then you were in limp mode if not, you have a reoccurring problem that you need to fix is your check engine light on? |
i'm having the exact same problem since i got my car back last night. as soon as i hit 4 lbs boost it falls on its face. i tried resetting the ecu - no luck.
my boost controller is turned off for break-in...could that have something to do with it maybe? |
i dont even have a boost controller.
i havent tried resetting though. my check engine light isn't lit. |
my check engine light is off as well. this is irritating, but i guess i should be happy i at least have the car back after 10 months :)

yeah sounds like it.

just an fyi - we think my problem may be caused by the fact that, in going non-seq, we removed the wastegate and turbo pre-control solenoids per the directions...but it seems they need to be attached, still.
** don't quote me on those solenoids - I "think" i have the right ones.... |
it was indeed limp home mode. now the car runs ok. Although i was too scared to floor it. It's been 6 months since i last drove it so i've forgotten how it was to drive :). I get 10 psi immediately, it builds up so fast that i don't dare pushing it more, gonna wait til it's tuned and when the AEM is in there.
thanks for all help. |
