I knew youd eventually throw p0299. It has to be the dv, pcv, intercooler hoses leak or you need to oil and recharge your air filter. Probably isnt your turbo hopefully:thumbsup:

Yea only tsbs i know of are pcv and fuel pressure sensor.
Cskm, is your car tuned? If it is then dv is 99% most likely your problem. The increased psi causes the old dv to tear causing a boost leak and p0299

Yeah, there is no recall for the DV. I haven't done it but apparently they're not hard to install yourself. If that's not the problem it probably will be a problem soon. Might as well replace it with the new rev anyway.
Also, get a boost gauge

If your DV is actually blown I have my old unbroken Rev. C lying around I could give ya but you'd just be better off buying a Rev. D in the long run if that does prove to be the problem.
