    help!!!

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So about an hour ago I was coming home from school and right when I merge on the highway my CEL comes on. I start to coast at around 55-60 hear a loud sound of rushing air and only boosting 5 psi (limp mode) when I boost 18-19. I pulled over the side of the highway and seen nothing wrong I though a intercooler hose blew off but it didnt, checked the tbb yesterday no rips, so i continued home and in about another 10 mins. at WOT it boost 15-16 and the boost guage was fluttering back and forth. Im going to get it scanned later but does anyone know what it might be or to check for?

    Re: help!!!

    Could be your maf sensor. Those are known to go after you get a chip. I've changed mine 3 times already. Try plugging it out and see how the car feels....It doesn't really explain the loud rush of air, but still worth a shot.

    Boost leak. You say you checked your tbb yesterday but this happened a few hours ago. I've blown my boot clear off the inlets and the car would still run until I tried to boost.

    Sounds like a large boost leak to me. My car was boosting fine but the guage was fluttering at higher boost then it would go into limp mode like yours. Found a boost leak and problem solved.
