i think it depends on engine and spec as well, but if that was on my car, i would be looking to find out as well.

has it all ways been like this, or has it just started?

any other simptons?

Same here,i was told by my mapper that if levels of 40 plus where seen regular then come see him and if the light blinked to say the 45 marker was reached to stay off the boost till its been looked at!

i have never had a flicker of the light, it was set at 45 but i had it mapped again last week ( 352 bhp ) and he lowered it to 25 as he said 'i know you're a worrier' i thinks it best to be safe then sorry...
