When the map sensor went when i had it at around the same RPM as your saying it jault quite badly.

Disconnect the maf to see if it makes a difference or not, best bet would be to get it on vag com.

right update it was that map sensor it has no cable tie on so it managed to work its way up and away from the actual sensor as like you save benny the clip is broke,so ive connected it back up and everything is fine again,boosting back upto 24psi :),been using a lot of methanol even before this problem like a tank a day based on normal and a bit of welly driving,dont know if this is normal or not for this time of year....or poss problem ?

iirc about 8/9 i think,if i move it round a bit will it mess it up (ecu) wise or will it not change a thing ? also do i need to clear anything after having this problem with the map sensor the management light is always on due to the evap anyway so i dont know either way cheers

I think 8/9 is where i had it but im not 100% Bill would be the best man to ask about that, if you adjust the dial up it will bring the meth in higher up in the boost range.

IMO i get a scan with vag-com or atleast some sort of scanner just to see what other faults there could be on there and to delete the existing.

map sensor

hi guys,bought a new map sensor today as ive had a scan and told it was playing up causeing my car to only boost to 10psi not 24psi and its not changed a thing.

on idle its popping and banging and smelling badly of fuel so clearly over fuelling,ive got wmi on it with the power to it off as its constantly pumping the tank to empty.

any idea's as to whats going on or what to try and look at next ?

thanks
