Causes and Fixes P0299 Code: Turbo / Supercharger Underboost Condition

[@Getyourighthydros]

Damn I wish all videos were this informative… awesome job brotha

[@georgemunoz4794]

You didn't mention oil feed line that runs under manifold. I heard if you don't change that out it clods and causes turbo to fail

[@phlodel]

I have a 2017 Buick Encore. I got a P0299 code last September. I tried all the checks recommended by various mechanics. I came to the conclusion it has a bad turbo - at less than 40,000 miles. I recently received a letter from GM that if the vehicle has a bad turbo before 10 years or 120,000 miles, GM will replace it. It's been at the dealer 3 weeks now. They have determined it's a bad turbo. They're really dragging their feet, but I hope they will replace it. Obviously, GM has lost a lawsuit.

[@phlodel]

Update: I just got my car back, after 5 weeks at the dealership. They replaced the turbo and related parts. Cost: $0.00

[@ashleygriffin7481]

This is literally what I am hoping for our 2018 Encore that is throwing this P0299 code. ONLY because it will be covered then and not something else to pay for. Thanks for the additional bit of hope for Monday's appointment 🤞🏼

[@phlodel]

@@ashleygriffin7481 I hope it works out for you.

Where can I find that GM letter? I have tve same come on 2016 Buick with 117000 miles 😅

[@teenice894]

​@@simoncesABCthey should send you that letter in the mail but considering your 3k miles away from voiding the turbo warranty I'd set up an appointment at your local dealer. They most likely gonna make you pay diagnostics fee between $100-$200. Call and tell them your mechanic said your turbo are bad but he told you they are still under manufacturer warranty...

[@LoSLuciferGaming]

Hi. Thanks for a great video. Im getting this P0299 only when its minus 10c outside. The car looses power but works. Is there any ways to know why this only happends in the winter? Its all good in summer.

[@safwanontzagwek]

I just had this code after fixing my car for timing chain cover leak. The code came together with P227900 Intake Air System Leak. I can hear the air leaking (loud hissing noise) when paddling above 2.4k rpm. This is not common. Need to further checking with the mechanic tomorrow. The mechanic suspect have issue with the N75 air hose vent. Need to further diagnose. I am driving 2013 Jetta. Thanks for your tutorial.

[@asapvlone13]

I had a similar issue but it ended up being a turbo clamp for mine. Replaced it myself and my turbo has been boosting normally

[@Integritydesign]

Informative and easy to grasp.. thanks for making this video.. I appreciate it.

[@Nathono]

Thank you for an excellent presentation, well made and helped lots - thank you 😊

[@Winn3D]

Just got this code on my wifes 2018 equinox. I got the P0299 and P0132 Permanent O2 Sensor Circuit High Voltage Bank 1 Sensor 1 Air filter was pretty dirty, would the P0299 code cause the P0132 code? The car only has 38k miles.

[@Spartaix]

Did you fix this ive got similar 299 and bank 1 lamda low voltage ? Annoying with engine light on a Renault.

[@StanGuru]

My van throws up this code when it’s cold. It has no power then once it’s warm it’s fine and if I reset the code it won’t come up again when the van is already warm? Changed air filter and MAF sensor already

[@brazeagle]

Fantastic, thanks a lot, THUMBS UP. God Bless.

[@judithm.8191]

Hello Sir, Thanks for the video. How long can I ride with that code before getting it repaired? All the lights in my dash are on. It's running fine. I can't understand how I got a brake job 3 weeks ago then 2 weeks later all the lights in the dash of my 2022 Honda Accord are on. I have 162k miles on it and have taken good care. Now this trouble. They're telling me it's 2400 to repair it at the dealer. In face all the codes state "see dealer "

[@DavidIbea]

Same thing happened to me after brake job it’s frustrating. Any updates?

[@kingkhan-lp1fo]

I had my brake and disc changed few weeks ago

[@paulgo6911]

well explained crystal clear, excellent , well done . time to get my hands dirty. thanks very much

[@mudover11]

Thank you for a great video. I have that code on my 2014 pro master diesel going to be working on it today. Hopefully it will be that waste gate issue.

[@bc-mr1si]

hi .did you get your problem fixed🤔

[@Italianborn]

Easy to check hoses or to clean the intercooler but how do we check if is a bad sensor ? I got this code yesterday on my 2012 hyundai ix35 1.7crdi..it’s raining right now so i couldn’t go and check on it.

[@brandonlanoue7287]

Any fix for the intercooler freezing problem been to the dealership two times no fix

[@RafaelOliveira-mr1jw]

Parabéns pelo vídeo..

[@F4llenBabylon]

Any estimate on how much it will cost to fix it?

[@adlsalahi4752]

2015 f150 around 2k to fix it.

[@Astrid3567]

Very helpful, thank you. Is it ok to drive with this code if your vehicle is running well?

[@nae1300]

Did you ever get an answer bc mine is doing this an I gotta work .. which is far.. 30 miles one way

[@Beast-rz9cd]

@@nae1300I’ve been running mine for about 3 months and I do good delivery, I just clear the code but I’m hoping to fix it this week

[@Beast-rz9cd]

@@-2k5 I had to change the turbo out

[@rodrigodiaz2195]

​@Beast-rz9cd What was the issue specifically? Bad blades? Scratch up housing? Hard to believe the entire turbo needs to be replaced unless you're getting one pulled over your eyes by the mechanic

[@SEBAS31077]

good video, are you saying 1 code could be because of 20 different things

[@jasonkoz8985]

Yes usually you can diagnose a problem with another code If there is one. As long as they appear close together in on the timeframe that it happened on.

[@LebogangMokhachane]

Great video...I have that code on my polo 6 GTI 2011

[@AveryObsidianXylia]

@LebogangMokhachane did you end up finding out what triggered the CEL? I also have the P0299 code on my Mk6 Golf GTI.

[@PownurD]

Hey, I have this code in combination with a P0101 code..what action should I take ? Is this a sensor problem when combined with the P0101

[@HVAC_Mechanic]

They likely are separate issues, but I would clean the MAF sensor, clear the codes, and see if they come back.

[@shawnmc964]

You ever figure it out?

I don't want to spend 500 buks on injectors if its not the problem and if the injectors snap on there way out .cylinder head will have to come off😬
