Hi,
Did quite a bit of search on the topic, but couldn't get anything relevant.
When I drive the car (or my gf) and suddenly stop sharp, the car goes into some awkward behaviour, misfiring and stuff. After switching the engine off for a few minutes, it drives normally again. Today, I read the pending codes (as nothing else was present) and I got P0246. Then I went for a drive and repeated sharp breaking (not that sharp really this time), the engine management light came on, the car was misfiring - it ran very poorly. Rear the codes, got: P0107, P0246, and another one for cylinder 3 misfire (don't remember the code - but I suppose it was the consequence of the previous two codes). Cleared the codes, P0107 and P0246 stay as pending codes now.
P0246 - Turbocharger/Supercharger Wastegate Solenoid 'A' Circuit High
P0107 - Manifold Absolute Pressure/Barometric Pressure Circuit Low Input
Not sure where to start with it - check the solenoid - replace it? (where is it exactly?). Did anyone have a similar problem?
I did change both MAPs recently, so they cannot be the cause of the problem.
Any suggestions would be very welcome (other than the obvious, like - go to the garage...- I know that - it is the last option).
Thanks!
