I finally got my first CEL!!! It is the code of turbo death: P0299

The issue is still intermittent, I am still able to get full boost 99% of the time I am driving.

My plan is to pull the down pipe and inspect for the crack at the wastegate port. If it's cracked than most likely I'll get it warrantied. If it's not cracked, I'm going to crack a beer and then wrap my down pipe.

Sorry to Necro an old thread!

Hi, I had a lot of stuttering under boost before finally getting the p0299 code. I replaced the turbo with an Oem substitute but now am having the same issue you mentioned where the turbo is literally blowing air with no boost. Where you able to solve this problem?

Ok, that’s a good lead. Once you loosened the spring stiffness some were you able to get good boost?
