Found the problem - gauge is knackered. Bought another one to test it, and it works fine. now got to mess about and send mine back to ebay. Great! | |

mines a mech one and it don't hiss at all,maybe an idea to put a pump on the end of the pipe to test the gauge and see if it leaks. | |

I think i must have punctured or split the pipe somewhere when fitting - will go buy a new pip and dummy fit it and try that | |

My mates on his astra is fine but its a digital 1 so there's no pressure near the actual gauge sounds like it is leaking | |

if it's a mechanical boost gauge and it's hissing I'd say the number one cause of that would be that it's leaking. | |

Been a while since I had a gauge, but I'm sure mine didn't hiss. Doesn't that mean it's leaking? | |

Does the boost pipe go to the back of the gauge or to an electrical sensor under the bonnet? | |

I had a 1.8t golf and my gauge dis the same. Get it mapped and it will be worse. Perfectly normal | |
