Hi guys,
well I have an APR chipped 03 gti and recently it hasn't been boosting like it was just a week ago. I would normally boost to about 21 and then level back to about 15-16 psi to redline. Now all I get is about 14 psi. No spike to 21 like it used to. I think that my stock dv is starting to go. It's been chipped for about 18,000 miles and it held boost fine. What do you guys think?

Re: Boost issue, need advice... (MrSkills68)

Pancake pipe huh? i did hit a huge freaking pot hole on my passenger side about a week ago. Is it hard to check the pancake pipe? Do I have to remove anything?

OK I checked out all the hoses and everything looked to be in order no loose fittings to speak of. When I first noticed the boost loss a couple weeks ago I reset my apr chip and then the boost went back to normal. A few days later my boost went down again. I tried a reset but it didn't work. COuld this problem be anything else besides a dv or leak prob.? maybe an n75 valve problem? I just found it odd that resetting the chip brught my boost back to normal. Any other suggestions guys? I already unplugged the battery to reset the ecu. That didn't work. It's driving me crazy!!

Thanks guys.
