EPC light.. causes?? cures??

[Spinboy]

Whats up guys..  Ive got an EPC light on an 02 GTi ....the car ran fine up until it was parked for 45 days while I was overseas.  Can anyone help me in finding the cure???   Thanks

Check your MAF sensor readings it may be failing to give the correct values.

I tossed the car on a Vag today  ( thanks Tim).. This is what it threw back at me:

16490 - Manifold/ Barometric Pressure Sensor (G71) / F96 Implausible signal

16622- Manifold / Boost pressure Sensor (G31) : Signal too High

17956 - Boost Pressure Regulation Valve ( N75): Open Circuit

17705 - Pressure Drop between Turbo and Throttle Valve ( Check DV)

17608 - Boost Pressure Control Valve (N249) : Mechanical Malfunction

16684 - Random /Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected

16685 _ Cylinder 1 : Misfire Detected

16686 - Cylinder 2 " Misfire Detected

17545 - Fuel Trim: Bank 1 (Add) : System too Rich

17963 - Charge Pressure: Maximum Limit Exceeded

Any help or suggestions would be most appreciated as now im at a total loss as to what to do!

looks like the battery was dead and had to be jumped it throws all kinds of garbage in there.

Clear codes and run it see what comes back up.

agree'd.
way too many codes in one hit.

voltage issue... reset and see if any return.

THanks for the info guys.. I had the codes cleared ( using a VAg) and drive around today...this is what pooped back up.

16490 - Manifold/ Barometric Pressure Sensor (G71) / F96 Implausible signal
17705 - Pressure Drop between Turbo and Throttle Valve ( Check DV
17545 - Fuel Trim: Bank 1 (Add) : System too Rich

BUT.. I did disassemlbe my Turbo Xcess DV and found the inner rubber seal to be worn out... so I temporarily ( but maybe permanently) "McGyver'd" it by used the green seal from an old MAF sensor.  The car pulls like crazy now...but I imagine the other 2 remaining codes will show up in a day or 2.... any ideas??

Have you ever doen a diode modification to the map sensor wires?
I woudl look there for implausible MAP values.

Also looks like you might have a boost leak somewhere based on the pressure drop code and the too rich code.  Check the hoses around the IC, and the seal around the MAP sensor.

Oh boy...electrical issues

The car doesnt have the DIY "diode mod" BUT.. It does have a Split Second Elect. Boost Controller installed , which what Ive learned so far ( please correct me if Im wrong) is basically the diode mod in a $225 box  lol I did check the DV ans found the inner rubber bushing to be a little worn but maybe Ill need to search further...
