    Audi B8 A4 P0299 low boost code

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I was pushing my car hard when at about 5400 rpms I got a check engine light which had a code that read low boost. I did some research and found that there are three possible causes to this code
    1. Dirty or bad MFA sensor
    2. Bad or leaking diverter value
    3. A faulty wastegate

    My car right now is running a Revo stage 2 tune 034motorsport HFC
    AWE intercooler
    k&n cold air intake
    forge BOV spacer

    So my question is has this happened to any other B8 owners and could it possibly be the stock diverter value cannot hold the boost pressure that is made when getting a Revo stage 2 tune (-300 hp more like 285 on 93 Oct) haven't dynoed it yet.


    Note : if the diverter value leaking is the issue then I am considering buying the Forge diverter value kit
    Is this a good idea ?

    Check boost sensor. Any sounds of rushing air at all? Has the car had its k03 wastegate recall done?
