Question

Reset my defis on lunch my lunch break, so peak should have been what idle was the time next time I started it?

The car didn't move between lunch and next break.

Started the car at the next break and the oil temps up at 80 deg and the boost is, get this, up at over 2 bar!!!

Peak!

Anyone had similar problems?

I've noticed that the oil and water temp gauges have a reading if I zero everything when the engine is still hot and then left to cool before starting it again. Can't say that I've had anything on the boost gauge though

Thumbs up

Cheers Raymond,

I honestly thought someone had taken my car and put it back, because it will boost to 2 bar just now if your not carefull!!!
I'm sure they wouldn't have come back with the car without cleaning it first though
I'll check the wiring tomorrow but there's not much to the defi wiring; power, earth, backlights and the link system.
