Diagnostic help

Diagnosis regards:

Diagnostics compares requested and current boost pressure. A DTC is generated if the current boost pressure is higher than the requested boost pressure.
The diagnostic trouble code indicates a mechanical fault in the turbo, air leakage between turbo and intake, in the vacuum system, broken solenoid valve or misleading charge air pressure sensor.
Air leaks between the turbocharger and the inlet can quickly cause damage to the turbocharger due to overrunning.
Mechanical fault in the turbo unit or air leak in the system.
