    3.0 TDI Boost Issues. VCDS Log.

    Ok, so currently sat in the car. Tried service regen of dpf - completes instantly. Dpf pressure is at 0hPa and doesn't change when driving or reving etc. So do you think a gremlin has been in and mapped it out or faulty sensor? Surely if sensor was faulty I'd get a CEL. Thanks for your help so far.

I first thought it was a dpf issue as it goes away after driving...

    B8 3.0 TDI Turbocharger Underboost Problem.

    I'm on the Isle of Wight mate. What would I be looking for in vag-com? Specified Vs actual boost? Map sensor was the next thing I was going to try.

    B8 3.0 TDI Turbocharger Underboost Problem.

    Hi guys, first post on this forum and not sure if I'll get the help I need. I have a 2008 A4 B8 3.0 TDI. The problem I'm having is inconsistent boost. Sometimes it pulls ok (mostly above 2.5-3k) other times I'll get an Underboost code. I've had a garage look at it and try an fix the problem. He...
