RCZ GT 200 Turbo Fault??

Your help greatly appreciated with Engine Fault message!!
Message appears when accelerating (usually above 3500rpm) reading `Engine Fault' and car goes into limp mode switching the turbo off....no adverse temperature displayed! Fault Codes in Module P0234 and P2263 Turbo Charger Air Circuit. Turbo cleaned and air veins cleaned, but fault remains. Suggested by garage possibly Regulation Solinoid Fault, but this is £200+ fitted, and may `not' cure the problem! I've also read that this issue may be caused by a faulty Turbo Cooling Pump, or ECU? The car is 61 plate and I've owned for less than a year..........gutted!! Amazing when it works, but have no confidence to blast away without losing power! :(
Fault display disappears when you switch off and restart?!
Desperate for a fix without spending loads of money ruling things out one by one!!
Many thanks.

Hmmm, well the turbo doesnt turn off, the ecu looks like its seeing the issue and cutting the boost back so you lose the extra power the turbo is giving you.
These faults are hard to diagnose on the internet, you need to check all the pipes from your turbocharger as a small crack can cause issues, but you also need to go to a garage that's good with peugeot turbocharged engines, it may not be cheap to fix but then again 200 quid is pretty cheap compared to other marques (try 250 quid + vat for a Mass air flow sensor).
A speciallist is your best bet, finding the issue is only the first part but dont be put off by the costs, all cars cost money to run, this just seems like an unfortunate fault :(

Thanks for the reply tony1968 A specialist is the answer to get to the bottom of the fault. I'm really looking forward to resolving and then confidently taking the revs over 4000rpm without fear of engine fault!! That's when the engine sounds at its best! :thumbup: Cheers.

I think there was a similar issue previously on this forum that was resolved by changing the pipes leading into the turbo as they had collapsed, probably worth a try or having a look? can't seem to find the topic

If its not the pipes, its probably a faulty turbo solenoid
