Boost Pressure Control Valve (N249): Mechanical Malfunction

[Mr OCD]

Currently...

 

[Mr OCD]

As car was with error code...

[/QUOTE]

Pipes checked / tightened / DV cleaned out:

N249 Vac removed (N249 Mod done)

... and I STILL have the fault code...

 

[Mr OCD]

Wherever I read it mentions issue with DV... too stiff spring perhaps?

Could be worth a try but wouldn't think it would be too stiff as yours is remapped isn't it? So higher boost and stronger spring needed anyway... Tried stiffer?

What you using for logging btw? VCDS?

Yellow spring should be fine for a remapped car mind ... not sure like idea of stiffer!

Yeah VCDS...

Read on a website that someone else had same code and replaced N75 and fixed it... But that was down to him saying it didnt feel right on boost... Seems a tricky one mate

Is your version of VCDS registered? Debating to register mine lol

 

[Mr OCD]

It does feel fine on boost although perhaps a touch laggy to build up boost... Once boosting its rock solid.

 

[Mr OCD]

Sorry yeah my VCDS is fully registered

 

[Mr OCD]

A well known tuner says N249 valve is shot... Anyone got a spare?
