For the second time in 3 weeks, I lost boost while driving. Last time dealer fixed intercooler hose. Now car goes back next week to reconnect whatever popped off this time. Very upsetting, only have 700 miles and the car is stock and only 1 month old!!

Any suggestions on how to prevent this from becoming a frequent occurrence? Can those hoses be zip-tied or glued?

Have the dealer performed WE66 Campaign?

PS: There is no separate clamps can be ordered nor can be installed properly. The Rubber Sleeve comes with its own non replaceable clamps.

Their are two types of connectors used on the charge pipes in this car, it would be good to know where the problem is. Is it a problem with the worm style clamp connection or is it a problem with the clip in style connection? Do you think you can ask the dealer when you pick up the car?

Sounds like that is the issue.
