Default still no boost

got it scanned it showed a p1136. to lean. a hose leak most likely. so i find it. its the line from the intake manifold to the dv. right where the T fitting is to the boost gauge. so i replace the whole line but still no boost. vacumm is about where it should be though. made sure all of the connections were tight. i can't find and visible holes. im so discouraged. =[.

Did you try resetting the ecu by clearing the codes with the vagcom or unplugging the ecu? If you do unplug the ecu make sure to do a throttle adapt by turning the key on for 30 seconds before starting the engine.

Doing this will reset the fuel trim blocks causing the ecu to adapt again.

if you've got no boost shouldnt you take the 18psi out of your sig? j/k

just thinking out loud here... how do you know you have no boost? if you say because your boost gauge is not showing any boost, are you sure that its hooked up properly and not defective?
