Can I keep driving

Safe to drive. Below — how much time you have and what happens if you keep going.

What happens if you keep driving

Time you have: Enough to reach the yard

Boost is not reaching its target: turbo, intercooler or intake. The engine compensates with mixture and runs hotter than usual.

You will lose pull, burn more fuel and add overheating on long climbs. If you hear a whine or a whistle from the turbo, stop — the wheel is breaking up.

That said, the manufacturer flags this code as critical — if in doubt, it is safer to stop and check on the spot.

What to check on the spot

Inspect the air filter and charge-air hoses: leaks and cracks produce exactly these codes.

Nearby: intake / boost
