Default I think my S4 is as sick of winter as i am.. Boost gauge is stuck/frozen at one indicated pressure!

first stuck @ 0.8

then it was 0.9

then 1.0 (for a while today)

just now this evening it was back to 0.9

anyone heard/seen of this before? Or is it that my engine has had enough of the cold...car doesn't seem perky in this new mode of operation.

hopefully she gets her act together for tomorrow. I tried to start my Golf tonight but she wasn't having nothing of it. Gonna haveta jump'start it =S

I'm so done with winter

Those are all close to atmospheric pressure, i.e. no boost. Could this be the problem?

Your moisture trap may have failed and you have frozen moisture (ice) in the hose to the MAP.
