Excessive Time To Enter Closed Loop Turbocharger A Boost Control
After start-up the boost-control loop on turbo A takes longer than the calibration limit to transition from open-loop to closed-loop control. Typically a slow-warming actuator (VGT vanes carbonised), a sluggish position sensor or a leaky pneumatic actuator that cannot follow setpoints quickly enough.
