So I cleaned my cruise control radar on the weekend and now my cruise works perfectly again. Let my car idle for 5 minutes after a big drive when i got home, . Go to turn it off and the check engine light is on, I thought it would just be the brake pedal sensor, took for a spin with the brake pedal switch "off" and it still didn't clear. So this morning I checked the codes and I get 0235 and 0171

0235 Turbocharger Boost Sensor A Circuit Malfunction

0171 System too Lean (Bank 1)

Anyway I am pretty Stoked :no: , thinking maybe boost solenoid is caput? anyone else ever had a fauly like this? Please help if you can

Also at idle I get a very little miss I can hear and just see on the tacho, so going to do plugs etc aswell...............

Mmm, fuel regulator reference hose will definitely make it run lean. I eventually put cable ties around mine to stop this happening. Why did this make the boost sensor come up though?

yeah I just ziptied them too, dont have a clue about the boost sensor though, I am just running evrything stock (no boost controller etc)

Maybe because a decent amount of boost would bleed out of that pipe....?

    • My extinguisher mounted like this unscrewed a little (Maybe from the chair sliding forward) and dumped a bit of white on my mats. I'll need to get a more narrow one for future.
    • I totally couldn't do the whole kids taking up my life thing! 😮 I find it bad enough doing 45 hours in 4 days, and then fitting normal adulting life into the other 3 with no kids! As for my mates race cars, they're AMG C63 setup for production racing. The original is what has just been stripped and a brand new shell built. The original is then going away to have some panels straightened, then it will be put back together again. Then there's a third that will shortly head off to have a roll cage put in, then build it up too. And potentially a fourth to be built too... Oh, and he has two Renault Clio D class production cars, ha ha. And when he's not racing them in the Australians and QLD production championships, he's been racing one of Chaz Mostert's Lamborghini's in GT4. They just won GT4 at the 12 hour in the Lambo. We're pushing to finish the new AMG as it has its first round (and potentially its first shakedown/outing) in under w weeks for Round one of QPC, and that round is really the shakedown to make sure it's all good for the Bathurst 6 hour, which I'll be at too. Ha ha ha Working on my project is different to his, I slowly tinker and work ways to make things happen on a shoe string budget. Hes in a good position that he has a massive workshop full of parts and tools, ha ha. He also looks after me. When his air compressor died, he just needed it working, so bought himself a new one and gave the old to me. Sand blaster unit too, and a 20t pressing. And pretty much all the shelving in my shed too as he upgraded all of his (the stuff he gave me is the expensive black Bunnings heavy duty stuff)!   I enjoy working on his stuff. No decision paralysis, and anything that's needed parts wise is just there. Plus, then I get to be hands on at the track in real racing, not just club day stuff.
    • I know which one I'd prefer to have in my garage, and which one I'd actually drive as intended
    • Yeah mate, no probs. Just swap the email addresses?
    • I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
