It didnt get to the stage where it couldnt idle because I got the tune altered as a temporary fix. Edited 25/04/12 08:03 AM by Paulie2256 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't run an after-market boost controller that is a classic symptom of over-boost if it's in the lower revs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is usually caused by a lean AFR. Can't say it wasn't detonation for sure but very unlikely as my motor is tuned well within its limits. Plus tuner would have told me when it went the dyno.Also I have a boost gauge and no sign of overboost.
