Hello,

Its telling you there is summat not right with your car, you have got an under laying issue which has been highlighted due to the added power, it could be a maf, dv, pcv fuel, coil packs ect...

Your best be is get it back to the dealer who flashed the map to the car and ask them to carry out a diagnostics session.

VCDS said it was a peddle sensor, came up about 20 times in 1 day, just checked all connections from TB to peddle and so far so good no fault.
Happy days Loving the power.
think its set as
boost=8
timing=4
fuel   =9
I do feel the boost is a little high any advice ? :driver:

Boost setting seems normal, if thats how it was set up on the dyno / on road after datalogging then the installer would have done so for a reason.

As for the fault, its not one I have come accross on the Tfsi so cant help much sorry

fault seems to have cleared now. Dealer reckoned it could have been the throttle angle sensor adapting to the new settings
