Well, as expected, it's back. This time I have 3 codes, P0299, P056E and B2aaa. Not sure if the third one means anything, but the other two seem to point to turbo control issues. Any suggestions? I'm trying to get my Scangauge to display MAP, but so far no luck.

Anyone tried the Rein hose from FCP Euro? In stock and half the price of the OE part. There's even this subtle implication: "The Rein brand includes a growing number of 'better than OE' parts for selected applications. These parts address known weaknesses and premature failures of factory parts."

My gosh 180$ for a coolant hose. I would just go the rein.

Not a coolant hose; it's a charge air hose.

Anyone have a hint on the best way to release the clamps?

Sorry I mistyped. Does the hose quality feel like a decent replacement?

I have the same tear in my X204 intercooler hose and the same P0299 & P056E codes as of recently. I am still in the AEM warranty window but the dealer won't confirm on the phone that it's covered or 'reasonably' related to the modification and warranty coverage until after a $295 diagnostic fee. Wondering if anyone else has had to fight for a coverage with this particular situation?

I'll know tomorrow after my appt.

The dealer told me the same thing when I had warranty work done via the AEM warranty. They should cover everything if they determine it's indeed a warranty eligible repair.
