PO244 wastegate selenoid "A" range'performance code???

Nelly · 10-23-2006, 12:18 PM

My car has been having issues lately and its going in to the dealer on friday. I hit fuel cut in 5th gear with 14 psi of boost. The cel code is P0244 turbo wastegate selenoid "A" range/performance. I have been running stg for a while no and haven't been having any problems. I flashed back to stock to bring it to the dealer and it threw this code. ANy ideas?? thanks

Overboosting, your creeping with your catless exhaust. I was doing the same thing once in a while on a cold cold night. Have you had it protuned yet.

You're either boost creeping or boost spiking. Either way, you're going over the programmed threshold for boost so the ECU shuts down the party.

Just had that code on the weekend. Was running St1 93 for awhile now. Installed the Invidia V3 DP on Thursday and didn't have time to change the map. Drove for a bit and on a hard pull in 4 or 5th it happened. I reset the CEL and loaded the St2 93 and no probs so far. I used the accessport and I see boost hit 18.3 but drops quickly now. (not sure what's it's going up to but guessing 19).

The highest boost level the AP can read is 18.3. You could have had a 25psi spike and it would still say 18.3..

I have not yet had a protune, i was gonna do a fp green, but im getting way too fed up with my car as it is now. Anyways its only boosting 0.1 MpA according to my factory boost gauge which is only 14psi. I haven't tried the AP live boost function, but i will now. Before stage 2 it would creep to 17.5 psi and then cut fuel....its no where near that high right now. And my stage 2 won;t boost more than 15psi. I just put the stock downpipe on, so if i hit fuel cut now that will definately rule out boost creep. Thanks for the responses....any other possibilities other than boost creep?
