1 vehicles · 1 makes · $500-$3,500 repair
Most Reported On
P2262 is an OBD-II diagnostic trouble code meaning “Turbo Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical.” This code means the engine computer commanded the turbocharger to make boost but the expected boost pressure was not actually detected, and it traced the shortfall to a mechanical cause rather than a sensor or electronic glitch. The computer compares commanded boost to measured boost, and when the turbo isn't physically delivering it, this code sets. You'll typically notice a clear loss of power, especially under acceleration or load. It generally points to a mechanical problem in the turbo, its plumbing, or the wastegate/boost-control hardware. This code is most commonly reported on 2011-2019 Ford F-350, with repair costs ranging from $500 to $3,500.
