I've been floating around the webs and this site trying to problem solve a p0299 issue I am having. A few months back I had my car in for inspection. It had a SAI CEL and my mechanic traced the issue to cracked PCV hardware. He ended up replacing most if not all of the PCV plastic bits and...

Hello. I have recently got my passat 2.0 TDI CR with 110 HP remaped to 185 HP. Before I had this the engine error P2015(Intake manifold runner position sensor) would sometimes come but I would just delete it. After the remap I drove a couple of weeks and the car worked fine until I parked it...

So I bought the car off of a private seller. It?s has 115k miles. The car has been sitting there for months. It runs fine perfect. But I feel a delay in the gas peddle. I can hear the turbo only when I?m driving on the highway at high speeds 70+ Like a little whistle. It?s not loud enough that...

2003 B5.5 1.8t 155k mile wagon. Almost everything around the motor has been replaced. No vac leaks, no pressure leaks. Turbo spins freely. Car runs perfectly. We've had the 171 and 299 codes forever but after replacing A/C condenser, compressor, receiver/dryer and orifice tube, the C0759 popped...

Today was hot and humid, son tells me the CEL came on while driving, symptoms were lower power than normal. Scanned it and got the P0299 for underboost condition. The inlet air pipe is solid, no other signs of air pipes loose. Backstory: Got the 2004 GLS 1.8T emission tested last Thursday, it...

Picked up a 2008 Passat 2.0t fsi with 166k miles. It has been neglected for some time and I am trying to get it roadworthy again. Here's what I've done so far: 1) Replaced the HPFP and cam follower. The cam follower in the car was completely worn though and spring was floating in the cam...

Here is a pressure testing set-up I came up with to test the intercooler ducting to find a leak for the P0299 code. I used my radiator tester and just got a 1-1/4' PVC plumbing cap, a 2" coupling and a 1-1/2" coupling from the local hardware store. I could pressurize it to 10 psi. Found a leak...

I am sure this has been brought up on this site before, sorry for repeating issues. But I needed to post 2 new threads to gain access to regular site. Thanks

Since I changed my thermostat a few months ago, I have been getting a P0299 code whenever I have a "load" in the car (e.g. few heavier gentlemen from work for lunch) and I get on the throttle for a long period of time (there's a hill heading back to the office from a usual lunch spot). I...

2003 1.8T GLS Passat w/ 198,600 miles. I've been having these three CEL codes come up, the light is not flashing and the car seems to drive fine. P0171, P0299, and P0456 Thanks for your help!

Replaced the CPS, now the CCT is making ALL kinds of noise like it's not getting oil and I am getting the P0299 & P0011 - so what controls the oil pressure to the CCT - I am assuming that there must be an oil pump but not getting a code for that. I will adjust the timing as it is advanced per...

Recently installed new Timing Belt, Water Pump, Check Valve, Thermostat, G-12, and CTS after purchasing a 2003 5.5 1.8t in order to clear P3081, and P0299. I thought everything was good, but the codes came back and brought their friend P2181 to play. The temp gauge seems to work fine again, so...

Reposting this thread in the garage area after not getting any responses in the general discussion forum. Still stumped. I just rebuilt the engine of my 1.8t 2003 Passat. It's the second rebuild I've done (different cars) and I'm having trouble with this one. The engine runs really smooth and...

I just rebuilt the engine of my 1.8t 2003 Passat. It's the second rebuild I've done (different cars) and I'm having trouble with this one. The engine runs really smooth and I thought I was golden but then I drove it and it has no power. After about 3 miles of driving I got a P0299 code, Turbo...
