Hi,

Got the message: "Engine System Failure" accompanied by loss of power. Switching off/on cleared it at first but it returned and message stays.

Friend of mine has a code reader which gave: P132B22. Anybody know what it is and how serious? :eek:

Thanks!

Radical idea I just had. It involved putting your code into google (I know, stunned silence!)

To cut it short, one result, a pdf document, the code you said:

DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code): P132B22

Description:
Turbocharger/Supercharger Boost Control A Performance

Possible Causes:
- Turbocharger boost control A performance - signal amplitude greater than maximum
- Turbocharger connections: water ingress, poor contacts
- Turbocharger actuator circuits short circuit to ground
- Turbocharger actuator circuits short circuit to power
- Turbocharger actuator circuits high resistance
- Turbocharger actuator fault
- Turbocharger actuator control deviation above maximum threshold

Action:
Check the turbocharger and circuits. Refer to electrical guides. Using a data logger function, record the turbocharger actuator angle at idle and 3000 rpm. From idle, 'blip' the throttle to maximum and allow to idle and record the turbocharger actuator angles. At idle, the angle should be approximately 95%, and 3,000 rpm, approx 40%, and when blipped the voltage should change smoothly at approximately 24% per 100ms. If the angles do not change, or do not change at the expected rate, suspect the turbocharger actuator is sticking. Install a new turrnbocharger. Clear the DTC's and test for normal operation.

Hope that helps.

Remember, searching can be your friend!
