Code 30ff

Luckydacuz · 03-15-2010, 12:27 PM

Well I need some help with this. I was driving yesterday and got the engine malfunction reduce power warning along with the half engine light. I turned of my car waited bout 20 minutes and restarted the car and it was gone car drove fine. I was able to get my car scanned today and code 30ff popped up. So what's that code and should I be worried bout it? Thanks for your help

30FF:
30FF Exhaust fume turbocharger low side
EXPLANATION: ECU boost under ECU target
FIX: Often caused by boost leaks, leaky DVs, broken vacuum lines, etc. Also possibly tuning related. If using a TMAP tune (SSTT/JB+) it may be a sign you need to reduce your boost level, or perform the solenoid bypass.

Should I bring it to the dealer with the code still there?

I just had the same code..
Should I bring this to the dealer?
I've been running JB3 map 3 without any issues for about 10kmiles..
I actually thought this may be related to HFPF before I searched it.. Cause I had 2FBF 3x before...

Anybody any answers please? I'm in process of removing my mods...

Thanks Guys!

If you had the 2fbf code three times, I would think its HPFP related for sure....Sometimes that code is triggered, but if you cleared it and its come back, the likelihood is that there is indeed a problem
