    Unhappy help: threw a cel after apr stage 1 upgrade

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    i got my 04 1.8t chipped the other day, it runs fine for a whole day of daily driving, today i pushed it up to around 4500-5000 rpm on the freeway in 2-5 gears, some point in there i threw a cel, it runs fine, sounds good, i think maybe the throttle body needs to be aligned because its all or nothing on the boost. any help would make you a...kick a*s person and thanks in advance

    Most likely a bad MAF. It might have been on it's way out and the chipping pushed it over the edge.

    Re: help: threw a cel after apr stage 1 upgrade

    -well, it is kinda common sense to diagnose a problem before buying parts, especially when its only a CEL and not the MAF light.

    -I ran MBC before I tuned to APR 1 so i coult get to 11 psi, should I still use my n75? if so is there a more stout n75 than stock?

    APR is designed to run with a n75. There is no reason to run a different n75 except the stock one. Get the mbc out

    Re: help: threw a cel after apr stage 1 upgrade

    The answer is to get it vag-commed.

    That is all. Were not human diagnostic machines so go get it vagged and then post the results.
