How do you know if your leaking boost? Do you get limp modes or SES lights? any easy tests and what is the solution?

If you have boost leaks, i my understanding is the car will go into limp mode. Not sure if it throws codes as well. have you checked the 2 hoses by the solenoid? I took my procede off too many times so the hose developed a slight tear. As soon as I did a WOT, car would go into limp. If i didn't do a WOT, car drove fine. Double checked the hoses and sure enough, a slight tear. Cut the hose past the tear, re-attached and tried, all limp modes gone!

I had a tear in my hose by the diverters and i never got any cels or limp modes...i also had a huge tear in my rubber fitment that connected the aa bov to the ic tubing..still no codes. I never had codes for any problems when losing boost...you just feel it. I can usually tell when you aredriving at wot and watch your bost ramp up, then drop a few psi stay there for a sec , than ramp back up. Everytime i had a leak my baube would do this. Check alll your hoses and g/l.
