P0035
Turbo/Super Charger Bypass Valve Control Circuit High
About P0035
The P0035 code indicates a turbo/super charger bypass valve control circuit high condition has been detected by the PCM. This code relates to the turbocharger/supercharger system that provides forced induction to increase engine power. Issues with the boost system can result in reduced power, poor fuel economy, and potential turbocharger damage if not addressed. This guide covers everything you need to know about this topic, including common causes, step-by-step solutions, and answers to frequently asked questions.
Here are the key things to understand: Black or blue smoke from exhaust. Whining or whistling noise from turbo. Reduced engine power. Poor acceleration. Understanding these fundamentals will help you diagnose and resolve this issue more effectively.
The most common reasons this occurs include: Failed bypass valve or blow-off valve. Damaged turbo oil supply or return line. Faulty wastegate control solenoid. Faulty turbocharger wastegate. Identifying the root cause is the first step toward finding the right solution.
To resolve this, follow these recommended steps: Connect an OBD-II scanner and read all stored trouble codes and freeze frame data. Inspect all boost hoses and intercooler piping for leaks or disconnections. Test the boost pressure sensor with a multimeter or scan tool live data. Check the wastegate and bypass valve for proper operation. Inspect the turbocharger for shaft play, oil leaks, or damage. If these steps do not resolve the issue, consider consulting additional resources or a qualified professional.

Quick Answer
Can I drive with a turbo code?
Minor turbo codes like sensor issues may allow careful driving, but significant boost or oil-related turbo codes should be addressed immediately to prevent turbocharger failure, which is very expensive to repair.
