Wired in the gauge a few weeks ago had been working fine till now it's definatley giving me a false reading and peaking way too early .

Checked the wiring and re wired. it completely to start fresh keeps doing the same thing

It's suppost to show 0 with the ignition on But it's at positive 0.5 also on idle it's at about negative .4 and it's reaching an Apparant 1.bar with just a blip of the throttle can't be right

Any help appreciated

Thanks

Boost reading is completely irrelevant when the car is in idle..

From what I can remember.. My old V sat at -0.4 on idle..

To get your true boost reading you need a long stretch of road ie a duel caridge way or motorway and do a pull in 4th gear. See what it peaks at then.

How is the boost set up? Stock actuator? Adjustable? Wastegate?

Its a hybrid turbo It's got an adjustable actuator

Set at 1 bar has only started acting up today just had a spasm and isn't giving a true reading now just a blip of the throttle or building boost slowly it's giving me really high boost readings when I no I'm not pushing it :/confused

Could be I guess just don't understand why it would give me a nice reading up until now as the cars not acting up or boosting that high you no when you can feel it
