Engine management light

[chip20]

Hi.My engine management light as come on my 07 plate ed30 dsg.I have had the diagnostic machine on it at work and it as come up with code p2188 system too rich at idle bank 1 permanent.Any one had this fault? If so how did you cure it.
Thanks

Is the car mapped?

[heavyd]

I had that when I had a revo map on. my cure was to take revo off.
If it has a revo map, they do another map which gets rid of this fault

[chip20]

Thanks.I rang awesome and they said it was nothing to do with the revo remap!

I had superchips map on, no error, had revo loaded onto the car, got the errror.  I was advised to change the hpfp, maf sensor etc etc
got a refund from revo, no error code with stock map. pdtuning remap, shark performance remap.
If you phone revo directly, they;ll tell you it comes up with that same fault with a few cars, mostly s3's they told me.
There were about half a dozen people at gti international that had revo loaded onto the car that had exactly the same fault code appear aswell.
This was teh fauklt code I had

Thanks for the advice.So am I best ringing revo direct?

[heavyd]

Yes, I would say so. You might just get fobbed off.
Use the search button, I know for sure Mandy on here had the same problem after gti international

[chip20]

I have rung revo.They have said it would
Have shown the fault after a few days
I have had the map since July! Would you
Call that being fobed off?

[SteveP]

IMHO your going about this the wrong way, yes it could be map related but highly unlikely, just get the car scanned with VCDS or even a basic fault code reader and they you will know what you are dealing with 

[chip20]

Your right.Going to try a few things at weekend.Thanks for your help pal

Didnt realise it was off July mate
Either way, thats what customer service is for 
Check the mileage on the error code, it could have been off when the map was loaded on, you never know

Sounds like the same fault I had. Mine was overfuelling on idle. It had been flashed with the wrong map. Took mine to revo HQ and was sorted out by Carl. Have a read through my build thread, it's all on there I think.

Are you getting a EML light on the dash board?
