Limp mode with and without procede V2

vbmw335 · 07-13-2008, 03:01 PM

Last night I was pushing my car a bit harder than usual and I got a limp mode, without a SES light. I turned off the car and turned it on again. I had a boost spike of 25psi!!! and limp mode again. I turned my Tq values to 0 and had the same result. This morning I took out the procede and the car starts up fine, if I drive normal there is no issue, however, if I punch the accelerator down I get a limp mode without a SES light. I checked my bypass lines and they look fine. My boost gauge reads 8-10psi in first gear and I get limp mode at the top of first, beginning of second.

Anyone know what the issue could be? Im not saying Procede is to blame, I have had this product for a year and simply love it.

25 psi! Why would you not blame Procede V2? It is known to have crazy ass boost spikes. Over the one year, how long have you been monitoring the boost with a boost gauge?

1) What do you mean, checking your bypass lines? Do you mean your procede wire connections or the vacuum lines. Vacuum lines are not supposed to be bypassed with V2, that's why I'm confused by "Bypass Lines".

2) What was the user torque setting at when you first noticed the problem?

3) What date did you install procede v2 and what user torque setting did you have it at when you installed?

4) What dates did you make any modifications to the user torque settings and what where they?

5) What gas are you running?

6) What other performance mods do you have?

7) What was the temperature the last few days in Chicago?
