So since I'#039ve got the car I'#039ve been having boost issues 😂#128514. This time when I put the pedal to the floor, around 4krpm I get a something like a hiccup. First that got to me was that its probably a misfire. After checking for codes and doing some logs no misfires whatsoever. Still underboosting though with the p0299. Basically pressure tested the car for boost leaks, smoke tested a

Before I had the n75 changed it had P0299 low boost. But now that’s replaced the turbo has no problem building boost it just won’t sustain it for more than a second without the wastegate opening.

Sure did. They came back. The check engine light seems sporadic though, does not come back right away.

Thanks for the reply - I forgot I had replaced the cam shaft position sensor with a bosch one as well. Updated my original post with that info.

Help overheating....
My radiator fans won'#039t kick into life and my car starts to overheat at a stationary. I have checked VCDS and engine coolant (g62) rises as normal, but the radiator outlet temp (g83) remains stuck on 35c.

In my honest opinion, it'#039s almost never worth doing a swap, if the car came with that engine at any given point from the manufacturer. The only reason I'#039d do a CDL swap is if I blew my BWA because a cdl base is only twice as much as a bwa base.
For the amount it'#039d cost you to swap a CDL, you'#039d be able to forge your bwa, and then you have a fresh engine basically. A s
