Title

P00B8, Replaced Charge Air Cooler Hose

Complaint

The customer states the check engine light is on.

Cause

Connected a scan tool and found code P00B8 – MAP – Mass or Volume Air Flow Correlation. Carried out road test, heard hissing sound while under load, connected a smoke machine to the air intake system, induced smoke into the system to check for leaks and found smoke leaked from the charge air cooler hose. Removed charge air cooler hose and performed a visual inspection of the charge air cooler hose and found the charge air cooler hose was damaged. These test results verified the charge air cooler hose was faulty.

Correction

Replaced the charge air cooler hose, cleared codes, performed a road test and verified the vehicle operated properly. The check engine light did not illuminate and no fault codes returned.
