Hello.
I have a Skoda Octavia mk1 2003 with an ALH engine.
Yesterday I used Torque (ELM327) to watch the turbo boost pressure. Torque was set to calculate boost using MAP.
At peak it showed around 21-22 psi.
Here's a screenshot of the Torque logging of boost. It was 3 pulling in 3rd gear from 2000 to ~4000RPM. (after the middle one was just a turn in 2nd gear)
Today I set it to calculate it via MAF and it showed 56 psi at peak. ��
But MAP still showed around 21-22 psi.
I didn't have boost 2 times, the turbo became silent at any RPM and the performance went down. I guess it went to limp mode. (after restart it worked again.)
Is it bad? At the end of July we are going on an 1800 km trip with my family.
Is Torque shows stupid things? It shows no error codes.
PS.: Everything is stock in the car. My turbo always sound a bit loud, compared to my friends modified car with open exhaust.
Next week I am getting cruise control installed, and we will take a look at it with VCDS/VAG-COM.
Thanks,
Erik
