Jspec Germany Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Strange one here and can't find anything similar with search. Car normally boosts to around .9-1.0 bar. Recently, will only boost to .7 bar. Couple of mornings ago, hit 1.1. Now back to .7 max. What do you think? SMIC doesn't look that bad, but not perfect. About to swap to stock airbox and new plugs + new fuel filter. Thoughts? Gas is the same = ESSO Super Plus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wkdtime Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Signs of a possible weak IACV, have you tried running it in TTC? if not then give it ago (Hose method), it will only take a 15 minutes or so to set up. This by passes the IACV's and if the car boost as normal then you know where your problem is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jspec Germany Posted August 20, 2006 Author Share Posted August 20, 2006 I haven't tried that yet. But I'll give er a go. Wifey has the car today cause I got sh*tfaced last night/this morning and left the BMW near the merry-beer-round (German drinking fest last night). That'll be a fun walk to go pick it up. Thanks for the idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
