Well my 2005 Passat with now 5,400 miles on it has thrown another Boost Pressure Regulation code:
-----------------------------------------------------------
Address 01: Engine
Controller: 038 906 016 R
Component: R4 2,0L EDC G000AG 6416
Coding: 0150034
Shop #: WSC 00028
1 Fault Found:
16683 - Boost Pressure Regulation: Control Range Not Reached
P0299 - 000 - -
Readiness: N/A
-----------------------------------------------------------
I think I have noticed a pattern. Hot day (80 or above), car is cold (at least 5 hours or overnight), I start it and go a short distance (less than 1/2 mile), I wait at idle for 2 or minutes (the slow lights during traffic) and then take off.
The car loses power and goes into "safe mode."
This time I pulled over and restarted the car and it was fine afterwards. No issues after that.
Has anyone else experienced this.
Does this indicate a specific sensor failure (MAF)? EGR system problem? Air filter issue?
