Hello,
very good post and I think here is realy smart people in this forum. So I will add my problem to this post, because it is very similar, but not the same.
Car is Audi B7 3.0TDI BKN MT mapped, EGR off, DPF off as I know. Car was mapped more than 5 years ago. Till now there wasn`t any problems. Not sure if flaps is off or not.
Reading this post I think my car has limp mode without any faults. Because I can`t rev more than 3000 rpm. I`m not sure why I`m not getting any fault, maybe that who mapped the car, deleted some faults, but not sure about that.
All started one day I was pulling with 3rd or 4th gear uphill, when I little bit released pedal I get limp mode. I was looking at fuel and turbo pressure. I think that is overboost limp mode, because only strange thing I can see when I watch is a turbo requested and actual pressure. When I pull hard, everything is fine, car is pulling as it should, when I get of the pedal and leave in gear, than I try to pull again and there is no power anymore, it can speed up but like it has only 100hp. After I switch ignition off and on again I can pull, when off pedal again limp mode. The same, when I start car at home, slowly driving till I get to normal road, I already have limp mode. So watching turbo requested and actual graph I see when I`m off pedal in gear, actual pressure is 0.3bar higher than requested and it slowly drops and reaches that requested. I will ad graph later today.
And this started that day when I wass pulling hard uphill that was first time, and than day by day it started to appear more frequently and now it is almost instant limp mode. While I get to the normal road without any pulling it is in limp mode and can`t pull without cycling ignition.
I have done some things:
Replaced MAP sensor
Replaced Air filter
Replaced Fuel Filter
Cleaned VNT
I watched graph for turbo actuator, it almost all the times copy requestd. Did test on actuator in one end it requests 80.8% and it goes to 80.8% in other end it requests 20.45% and it goes 20.95% I don`t know if that 0.5% is a problem.
Maybe if there is somoen who could help with this situation let me know what graphs should I make and post here. I think today I will have time to make them. I don`t know how good those graphs will be I`m using Thinktool thinkcar.
Thank you in advance to everyone who will try to help and sorry for my english
