*Long*
I finally broke down and upgraded to the MTM 1+
chip/sensor in my S6 Avant. Installed last friday -
took a few runs around in it and left it as I went
away for the weekend. Drove it on Monday - got really
into the boost - evertyhing fine. Car sat for tues
and Wed. Got in car and drove to work - also got into
the boost. Pulled into work , parked in spot and
idled for 10 sec. Then the car just died. I try
restarting - starts instantly. Sat there for another
30 seconds idling- everything seems fine. Shut car
off. Go out a few hours later to make a run over to
my companies test facility. Get moderately into boost
on trip over. COming off the highway I coast to a
stop . Car dies- I restart w/ no problems. Drive up
to stop sign a few block later car dies- restart -
dies 2 sec later. Restart. Manage to get it to my
condo by holding foot on gas at stop signs/lights .
Park in condo spot - car idles fine?? Pull codes -
only one 2214 "engine overrev"??-- I don't remember
getting it up even close to the redline. Car idles
for 5 minutes and seems fine. Ended up driving the
trusty 4kq back to work.
Any ideas on what the problem is ?
Vacuum leak?
I am still on the stock hoses and bypass valve at 74k.
Would failure of these cause stalling?
Bad ISV?
Other likely culprits?
Help!
