Default winter overboost!!!

Went out for a blast today, my car usually runs about 1.2bar but today it was hitting 1.5 and holding about 1.4 I think it is down to the cold weather.What do you guys think and has anybody else found they are having the same problem

Cold weather can make that happen, try cleaning the boost solenoid valve with carb cleaner.

When it happens to my scoob, a quick squirt sorts it out
