What does the p0299 code on my car mean?
What the P0299 code means. The P0299 code indicates that the Turbo or Supercharger “A” has excessively low output. The ECU looks for a specific range of boost and when the low boost is detected by the ECU, it sets a P0299 code. This code will illuminate a Check Engine Light on the dashboard and may put the vehicle in limp mode.
Is the p0299 Turbo underboost an issue?
Recently, my CEL came on and when I checked the code, it came up with P0299, Turbo Underboost. I noticed at the time, that the car did accelerated poorly as if there was no boost. It would still accelerate but very sluggishly. Not that this car is any type of rocket.

What’s the fault with the Vauxhall Mokka p0299?
He had the fault P0299 and amber engine check light as well as limp mode (would go back to normal if the engine was shut down for a longer time period but then would come back when you try to quickly accelerate).

What should I do if my p0299 supercharger has failed?
For example, if you search around, you’ll find that a common fix for a P0299 in VWs is to replace or repair the diverter valve or wastegate solenoid. On the GM Duramax diesel, this code may mean the turbo housing resonator has failed. If you have a Ford, you’ll want to next check the wastegate regulating valve solenoid for correct operation.
What are the symptoms of a p0299 DTC?

Why is there no boost in my Mercedes Sprinter?
A shiny new turbo was present under the bonnet (hood) and looked to be functioning correctly. The vane actuating lever was moving under engine load and all looked well with the vac control valve, vac supply pipes etc. A quick read of the ECU with the code reader showed that there was a low boost fault code stored (no surprise there!)
Is there a turbo in the Mercedes Sprinter?

Vacuum actuator diaphragm holed or leaking – no as it held perfect vacuum. Undo the lock nut on the actuator rod (yellow painted here) to the right of this is a knurled adjusting wheel. Adjust to set the required rod lenght (Until a full vac condition holds the vane lever to its maximum on the mechanical stop)
What causes an underboost code on a p0299?
Potential causes of a P0299 turbo underboost code include: 1 Intake (induction) air restriction or leak. 2 Failed or damaged turbocharger (sticking, binding, etc.) 3 Faulty boost/charge pressure sensor. 4 Faulty wastegate bypass regulator valve (VW). 5 Low fuel pressure condition (Isuzu). 6 (more items)
What does code p0299 mean on Duramax Diesel?
On the GM Duramax diesel, this code may mean the turbo housing resonator has failed. If you have a Ford, you’ll want to next check the wastegate regulating valve solenoid for correct operation. Anecdotally in Fords, this seems to be found in EcoBoost or Powerstroke engine equipped vehicles such as F150, Explorer, Edge, F250/F350, and Escape.
