Title: P0299 Underboost N75 problem 1.8T Post by: zaoxdk on October 06, 2019, 01:30:17 AM Hello
I have had problems with not achieving the correct boost (file set to 1.1 bar) car only boosts 0.5-0.6 which is the wastegate opening pressure. The turbo which I have mounted is a K04-015. I have checked that it has the same wastegate opening pressure as on the Stock turbo. Car is a A4 B6 1.8t BFB, 518AL. When disconnecting the wastegate actuator hose from N75, it boosts fine (above 1.1 ofc). The N75 is mounted as it should, triple checked that. It’s a brand new OE unit. No boost leaks, have FMIC or restrictions in exhaust. Has anyone experienced the same? Thanks Title: Re: P0299 Underboost N75 problem 1.8T Post by: fknbrkn on October 06, 2019, 02:46:24 AM it should push much more than 1.1 wo actuator line
post logs etc Title: Re: P0299 Underboost N75 problem 1.8T Post by: zaoxdk on October 06, 2019, 03:47:43 AM It does. Haven’t got any logs yet. Got it pushing at least 1.5 on the dyno W/O wastegate actuator line, but I let it off as I am on stock rods.

Title: Re: P0299 Underboost N75 problem 1.8T Post by: zaoxdk on October 10, 2019, 02:24:47 AM Problem solved. Fitted N75 valve from a A3 8P 2.0tfsi. OE num: 06F906283F. Had to rewire the plug to a different D type connector. This valve is also much cheaper than the old style n75. Car boosts fine and holds at 1.1 as programmed.
System has been tested up to 2.5 bar - no leaks were found. For some odd reason, the brand new OEM N75 which i had fitted must have had some problems, as it simply wouldn’t bleed enough air into the atmospheric pressure pipe.Measuring pressure at 95% n75 duty cycle at actutator connection (T pipe to a pressure gauge) resulted in 0.4-0.5 which is more than enough to open the wastegate. Wastegate has been checked with a pressure gun, and has same opening pressure (0.5) as Stock turbo. For any more info, please ask.

They wont work right if polarity is incorrect
