Default Boost leak check...

Do you have to remove the front bumper to get to all of the intercooler clamps/hoses to check for leaks? I only have 1200 miles on the car and my boost guage is acting crazy (buzz/rattle). I'm thinking it's a bad guage, but I want to check just to hopefully avoid taken it to the dealer.

But yeah thats probably a bad gauge...take it to the dealer to have it replaced, no gauge should rattle.

You might want to check you clamps anyway.....they work loose just like the $20 OCC clamps.....
