Fault Code 66 - Import Legacy GTB
 

Sorry guys, I'ved asked this question before but didn't write it down.

Can anyone tell me what code 66 is on a GTB Legacy 99T plate.

Thanks.

Unfortunately its rather non-specific. It means there is something wrong with the twin-turbo system which isn't really a lot of help. I'll send a diagnostic pdf by email.

Code 66 Normally occurs after an engine job due to the fact that the piping
for the twin turbo has been incorrectly refitted ! I have first hand experience !

the below is some info i got from Subaru iRL at the time

This code is shown when primary turbocharger is operating, and throttle open angle is 30degrees or more, and the output voltage of Differential pressure sensor is 1.4V or more.
The differential pressure means the difference of supercharged pressure between Secondary and Primary turbocharger ASSY. Therefore, if Secondary turbo is excessive over boost or Primary turbo is excessive low boost, this code is shown.

Main check point for 66SBSYS(S)
1. Check if turbine of primary turbo is broken or not.
2. Check if relief valve, intake air control solenoid valve, exhaust gas control solenoid valve and differential pressure sensor are working normally.
3. Check the waste gate valve (included Primary turbocharger ASSY). If waste gate valve is abnormal, replace Primary turbocharger ASSY. This valve itself can not be ordered as a spare part.
4. Check if the vacuum hose connection (No1,2,3,5,6,8,10,21,22,23 shown in the above diagram) is incorrect.

There is actually 3 different versions of code 66
Trouble code 66
66SBSYS (T) è Twin turbo operating area (Both Primary & Secondary turbo are operating.)
66SBSYS (S) è Single turbo operating area (Only primary turbo is operating.)
66SBSYS (H) è High supercharged pressure area


Let me know if you require a copy of the piping diagram !

Midget, could I have a copy of the piping diagram please?

Me too please, because l'm lumbered with helping a ' mate ' in the motor trade who has bought the car with this fault and I offered to try and help.

A diagram will get me off the hook as he can then sort it out himself.

Midget, could I also have a copy of the piping diagram please?

Good luck ;)

Loads of info on code 66 on UKlegacy.com.
Good luck with the fix.

David I have the full workshop manuals for the TT's now, let me know if you need anything further, Code 66 specifically relates to an inbalance in the TT system during transition, often caused when pipework has been frigged around with and specificly required restrictors left out. See it quite a lot when I am mapping them especially when std pipework around the engine bay replaced with Samco and restrictors are not transferred.

Midget, could you please send me the diagram, I have got 2 fault codes, 66 & 22 and I am new to owning a Subaru and finding them a right nightmare:cry:

Thanks

code 22 is your knock sensor but that might be thrown up because of your code 66 seen it before

Cheers, so would you advise 2 ignore the knock sensor until the piping has been checked out? The engine has been out and partially rebuilt by some one who I have no faith in what so ever, and now they cant and dont want 2 help rectify this problem

do all the checks like midget has posted even better if you get the copy of the pipework the knock sensor has probably been thrown up by the ecu detecting a fault in the turbo/s whether over or under boosting so as not to damage the engine and dont worry there are many more who have had code 66 .

Darn Subi's
 

um Midget could i also please have a copy?

I had this code 66 on my old Leggy TT, was because one of the turbo's wasnt really doing as much as the other... fecked basically

Hi Midget, could you send me a copy of the PDF? I also have the same issue with low boost on a TT legacy 2001. I have had the first Turbo replaced however this has not helped at all!! I need to find a good Subaru Engineer to help me!!

thanks

hi there,
could someone post me diagrams of the twin turbo piping as my engine was replace and i have code 66 throwing up!!!

Hi all
if you look on the uklegacy.com site there is lots about the code 66.
Look up in the for sale section 'solenoid' - member Nutbeam refurbs solenoid boxes to clear this code.

just noticed this, cheers flyinn one!:thumb:

vac pipes cock up
 

hi i am a newbie can any one supply vac pipe diagram foo a 2000 gtb as i have code 66 and22 showing please send to my e mail cheers;):norty:

TWIN TURBO PIPING
 

would like twin turbo piping for ej20

suggest you register on uklegacy.com and look me up

Bob could you please send me a copy of the work shop manual, I have a Legacy TT GTB wagon and I have code 22 and need to know how to change the knock sensor. WOuld also appreciate any other doc and info.
And Midget may I pease also have a copy of that piping diagram.

ej20tt vaccum pipes
 

Hello, i'm a new member rom New Zealand, and have found your club, I to would very much like the diagram everybody has been asking for so I can corect the vaccum hose connection the owner before me has got wrong, please send me a copy

yip as above nutbream on uklegacys the man to ask:luxhello:

hey can I please have a piping diagram as well

Any chance that you could send me any diagrams that you have pertaining to this issue? I have a 98 legacy twin turbo with code 66. There aren't any mechanics that have worked with this type of engine where we live and diagnosing issues has been very difficult!

Our mechanic thought that our issue seemed to be a coil problem - we have now replaced spark plugs twice and the coils as well as the O2 sensor (we were also getting an O2 code). Each change seemed to fix our problem for about a week and then it goes right back to where it was. The sputtering was making the car almost un-drivable, would sometimes stall or not start (particularly if very cold or wet weather), idles at very low rpm and rpm will fluctuate, car gets a shake/shimmy while idling. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

hey midget could I scab a copy of piping diagram too pleas

I have engine code 66 come up
 

I've put a new engine in my 1998 legacy mk2 gtb and now have a engine code come up and pretty sure its vacuum not piped up correctly could you please send the diagram over so I can double check please
