Hi newbie here just bought my first seat leon cupra 1.8t 04 plate had it a week then lost boost turn car off then back on and its fine for a while then does the same I had it on a vag scanner and codes 17705 P1297 Connection turbocharger - throttle valve pressure hose and 16795 P0411 Sec.Air Inj.Sys. Incorrect Flow Detected comes up. As far as I am aware its standard apart from a k&n and a adjustable forge DV with a remap any ideas what I need to change to fix it as I got beat off the lights by an 80yr old woman in a C reg merc :/ very inbarassing.????

Car has only done 95k with fsh

Hiya mate I heard one yesterday when I cleaned my throttle body out put I think that was down to the dump valve so I adjusted it a bit and carnt hear it now but still throwing these codes up the car doesn't run rough or anything just drives normal but without the use ov the turbo until you turn car off start back up then drives mint for a while :/

It sounds like the issue im having with my cupra r! Your car must be going in limp mode!
Have you inspected all the vacuum lines as these are notorious for failing?
Ive traced mine to the MAP sensor reading incorrect...Id say get some actual values from someone with a VAG system dude!

aha yeah it worked bud! Had a look, there is a lot that has been changed there!
I thing someone has done the n249 bypass, hense the odd vacuum line missing! Is that a forge splitter DV?? I have heard those DVS arnt as good as the forge 007 or 008!
To test the DV remove it and manually push the piston up and hold you thumb over the vacuum nipple! When you let go of the piston is shouldn't close, it will move a little bit tho! If the piston completely returns, then the DV is at fault!
Other than that mate you need to get it pressure tested, see if there is a leak anywhere in the boost system! Mine turned out to be the MAP Sensor reading incorrectly!
Sorry if my explaining is crap aha :rolleyes:!

Sound mint mate :) will check the dv tomoz and yeh I heard the 007 ones are loads better with a yellow spring inside so will order one and see how it goes and it's booked in next week for a smoke test so will keep you informed if any leaks. Just strange tho as the car ticks over mint and drives mint till it does that but again perfect engine wise just loss ov boost till I turn car off then back on :/ really is a head blag but will see what comes from the smoke test. Do you no anything about this vag com thing someone told me I just need the wire off eBay then go on my laptop and plug it in to the some test? Sounds far 2 straight forward that lol

I went with a forge 007 and have had no issues! They need servicing every now and then but you can get service kits from forge :)! Keep us updated bud! The reason you get your boost back after you switch the engine off and on again..to me it sounds like the car is in limp mode, it holds back the PSI to protect the engine...that's why it feels slow [:@]! I only fixed mine last week and im in love with it again ahaha! I have the BAM engine the 225bhp its rapid! I hope you get it sorted dude!
I don't know a lot about buying VAGCOM, you are better off looking through other threads dude! I was thinking of getting the software but not sure where to start lol! :confused:
