Thanks for the helpful replies.  :smiley:

I dont have a CAI at the mo but that is on the 'to do' list, lol. Probably be going for ITG or EVOMS.

I did have a K&N panel filter but VW took it out and replaced with OEM during last service (about 3wks ago).

Because I got the remap at Inters, I guess it's on 'safe settings', wonder if thats anything to do with it?

Fuel rail pressure too low.... doesnt sound good. The last thing you want is it running lean.

You checked block 103 that measures low-side feed pressure from the tank?

I too had mine done at Inters on the Saturday, gone from standard to a Stage 2, mines an Edition 30 with TBE & ITG, on Monday driving to work I also got a Cel light. The reading I got was

18725/P2293/008851 - Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve (N276): Mechanical Malfunction
Possible Symptoms

* Power Loss

Possible Causes

* Fuel Pressure too Low

Possible Solutions

* Check Measuring Values for Fuel Pressure
o Check for bent/squeezed Fuel Lines
o Check Low Fuel Pressure System for Leaks
o Check Fuel Filter & Filter in Fuel Pump
o Check the Fuel Quantity supplied by the Fuel Pump


My setting from Inters are 7B, 3T, 9F ( Mine is set to run on 95Ron and not 98 )

When I got the check light, I was idle in traffic  :stupid:

I have made an appointment with Doctor Darren, to get some logging done tomorrow (Saturday) to see what the system says is going on.

Is everyone running a uprated downpipe to go to stage 2?

I've got a Milltek downpipe, I think it's a requirement for stage 2 rather than a recommended thing.

I don't know what Carl put my settings on, but he did ask me what fuel I use so must be set to run on that (Momentum).

I guess the car is still safe to drive though? Doesn't feel any different since light has come on.

This is the latest information from Revo's website with reagrd to Stage 2 requirements:

Stage2 for 2.0T FSI Transverse K04 based vehicles
Required:    Turbo back exhaust without pre-cat and either decat or highflow catalytic convertor (2.5"-3.0" recommended), Cold Air intake (from turbo inlet pipe to front of car replacing factory airbox for best gains)
Recommended:    Front-mounted Intercooler (Required if customer wants to use the full boost potential)
Note:    Uprated Intercooler can be run for maximum benefit, stage2+ is the next step though…

Stage2 for 2.0T FSI Longitudinal vehicles
Required:    Turbo back exhaust with Decat or highflow catalytic convertor (2.5"-3.0" recommended)
Recommended:    Cold Air intake (from turbo inlet pipe to front of car replacing factory airbox for best gains), Front-mounted Intercooler (Required if customer wants to use the full boost potential)

Don;t they turn one of the sensors off? Suprised they didn;t do this in first place...

Whats the difference like please Mandy, fancy stage 2 myself :)

To be honest I don't think there is much difference at present, but I didn't expect there to be. Once I get an intake and have the settings tweaked then hopefully should see a bit of a difference.

The difference from stage 1 to 2 will never be like going from stock to stage 1. I think the idea of stage 2 is to make the most out of aftermarket mods.

I decided to upgrade because it was only £50, and my boyfriend offered to pay for it.  :pomppomp:

One thing I have noticed since going to stage 2 is that my mpg has improved ever so slightly, when driving normal.  :laugh:
