Bodge.

Yes my problem has been sorted by removing the Jabba map

[Beretta]

Would it be possible, or "IMPOSSIBLE", to say which map you used to sort out the problem??????

[Johnny50]

Now that would be telling !

[Bodge]

Glad to hear your sorted mate.

I'm not remapped though! Errrrrr

Could your remap have exploited a weakness in the N249 or have sent it confusing signals I wonder?

I still think my problem is N249 related so I'm gonna go to Skoda at lunch to get a price on a new one.

Hmmmmm I wish this engine was as simple as my old car. Damn ECU's....

[Johnny50]

Bodge,

Fezboy now has a new map on his car, and has no problems, so i would've thought a faulty n249 would've shown up again if that were the case.

Meeeoooooowwwwww

Interesting leak, it sounds like what I experience part throttle actually.

[millie]

every morning (more so now that the car is cold)

if i drive 5 mins down the road(i can tell there is no boost)

pull up turn off and restart drive away with full boost

So it can't be leak related :confused:

same problem as me.have you tried pressure boost valve

[millie]

yes it was nice to have full boost first thing this morning

how much was this pipe mate cuz it may be worth me tryin

[Kenny R]

Blimey..this is an old post thats been brought to life again!!

[Fezboy]

What's going on with all these old post being dug out of the grave

My problem was the map which was removed and the error code was never seen again

[VRS Nick]

my car is the extactly the same ! ive been told ive got a split in one of my pipes but cant find it . its the same when i start the engine no boost and turn it off and turn it back on ive got boost and she flys .

i dont think my car has been mapped or been chipped so i couldnt say its down to that . its going in to a skoda specailist saturday to get sorted hopefully

That's what I was told but I just don't buy it.

If you have a split hose you always have a split hose so why when you turn the car on an off does it suddenly go away :confused:

All I can say is I had a custom map with the above problems and the 17705 code.

When the map was put back to standard I did not have the problem or error code again.

ye but that means your approx 40bhp down if you had map took off dnt it

[Fezboy]

ye but that means your approx 40bhp down if you had map took off dnt it

For a start you won't get 40bhp from just a map(well if you go to some tuners you may )

I don't own the car anymore but as I have said the error code 17705 was caused by the map which gave a cold start error (17705)

This error is common on mapped cars Audi/Golf/Seat........but it can also appear on standard cars.

The car is now running another custom map and there are NO fault codes

You can start changing loads of parts and still have the problem so all I can say is good luck!!!

I have the 17705 showing up and the dash light is on, if I clean the throttle body etc, will the light automatically go off, if the problem is cured, or will I have to take it to a dealer to get it deleted etc ?

If you buy yourself vag-com or a code reader you can check the codes and delete them yourself.

The dealer will probably charge you £50+ to do it anyway.

If the light is on it's going to need checking to see what's going on.

Where are you?

Someone local to you may have vag-com to help you?

[cheetham1889]

Im in leeds,A brother works for vw ( although not a grease monkey ), so he plugged it in for me, originally I got an error code ( sorry don't no the number ) for a secondary sensor, something to do with air flow, they replaced the hoses and the fault cleared, I aso had the cam and water pump replaced etc. About 800 miles clocked on and the light came on and vag-com showed the 17705, the mechanics at vw said it was probably the TB that needed cleaning, but even if I did this it would probably return after approx 6k. This is my first skoda, ive always gone for older cars, where they are not plug and play, so im not used to getting lights flashing up all the time etc.What I was wondering is, due to the light coming on just after cam etc been done, if it was something to do with how they had set up the timing etc, ie incorrectly, and that if this could alter the pressure etc.ThanksPaul

ifve drove my car for about 3 week with this code. will it get worse? and will it damage my car?

No there will be loads across the Vag range with this code!
