    I insist on what i already said twice: record inputs fuelling log cos if it's some sensor misbehaviour or or fuelling issue revealed by the live data not even the God of remaps would help, eventually make it worst or kill the engine

    Replacement cluster is all good. It's in decent condition too, bit upset it's only got 153k miles on it. Mines up to 225k (and the rest of the vehicle definitely reflects that) so I was looking forward to making 250k one day 😅 might see how easy...

    That's something I was wondering. I've used a test and polarity probe and it appears the signals and voltage are reaching the cluster so I have to assume it's the cluster that's gone awry. Ordered a used one so I'm hoping for a plug and play...

    It does everything like all the other cheap multivehicle OBD2 scanners can do for the Td5 EMS... shows you nice but false fault codes and erratic live data, that's what they do, believe me or not

    The wastegte seems to be tighter than from factory so it should not be low on boost for that reason that became clear when you said it's from 2003.... i cant say more than i've already said about the black smoke

    You might not notice it if you are not used to a well running Td5 driven with nervs. As long as you have the AAP fault code logged the ECU is on default for that specific code and one of the symptoms is "boost limited to 1 bar" so without correct...

    See live stationary voltage inputs... if they are all similar or very close(between 2 - 2.3v) the problem is most probably the hub, if the one with the code is out of that it's a wiring issue ...or ECU misbehaviour
