P0106Powertrain

Manifold absolute pressure circuit range/performance

Where to start

Manifold pressure is outside the expected range. Check the hose to the sensor: a pinched or cracked one produces this code with nothing actually broken. With the engine off the sensor must read atmospheric pressure, about 100 kPa — that is the first and free test.

What to watch in live data

A code is not a diagnosis. It says which check failed, not which part to replace. Clearing it without repair only means the car will report it again in a few trips.

How the app helps

CarScan reads this code from your car through an OBD-II adapter, shows whether it is active now or only stored, names the module that reported it, and puts it into a plain-text report for your mechanic.
