Usually pulls 1.2 bar, holds 1.1, thanks to Scott T and a piggyback board.
Recently it sometimes only pulls .8 and then increases slowly, sometimes 1.2 and tails off earlier than usual.
any ideas?
suspecting boost control solenoid, or a leaky pipe (bugger!). not expecting it to be easy to trace though....
