    Paul - I have a spare ISV somewhere - doing garage clear out today and finding all sorts of things. Let you know when I find it.

    Happy to do your OBD whenever as well.

                You almost certainly have a boost leak
                You need to do a boost leak test.
                Search the forum for how-to.

                  The car is over boosting. I checked it with a boost gauge. I bought a spring from 034 but looks like they supplied a 2.2bar absolute pressure spring. I am sure this is the problem. What is the factory documented spec for boost.

                      Put a stock spring in it or get a remap to suit the stronger spring.
