Twice this week I have been driving along and just lost my boost. Well ok not all of it, but it starts only going to 0.5 bar and thus feels pathetic.
The strange thing is its not actually done anything funny, or lost the boost whilst I am in the middle of using. It just there and then at some point its not there. I have noticed that turning it off and back on seems to solve the problem.
Im thinking maybe im hitting some kind of fuel cut which is knocking back the boost, but I dont understand why its doing it now. Both times its happened are after its been driven for a bit, left and then gone back to whilst still hot if it means anything.
Cheers

Ive had similar probs, are you running standard turbos vaccum hoses? that seemed to be my thing , and im guessing this is a first turbo thing on the way up, like serious lag that never picks up ? yeh ? im still getting that too .B ut check the vaccum lines .
sorry if that dont help much , I could do with some answers too
Hi there
I have a similar problem. It happens to me on long trips. As you say, switch off and on again, and the primary boost comes back. Have not had a look at the problem yet, but I have an idea which little hose is to blame on my car.
I also have a spare ECU which I have not tried yet.
