Code result

P006B

MAP - Exhaust Pressure Correlation

Moderate severity

What it means

The relationship between manifold absolute pressure and exhaust back pressure is implausible. One of the two pressure sensors is faulty or there is a major leak in either path.

Is it safe to drive?

Use caution

The vehicle is usually drivable for short distances, but the problem can worsen or affect emissions. Diagnose and repair as soon as practical.
