Gentlemen,
I have discovered I am getting fault code 2231, which according to
SJM's list is:
2231 (Blink Fault Code), VAG1551/2 Fault Code Number 00533 Idle Speed
Control, Idle speed adaptation limit exceeded, Sticky ISV, air leak
Now this car idles lower than my wife's S4, could the code be a
coincidence or is there something that can rob me of boost and cause
this code?
Thanks for all input!
Chris
