So today was our first real cold day at -20C and I had 450 km drive ahead of me, no problems till I was about 150 km into the drive when all of sudden boost was all over the place! Truck is building 30psi and barely touching the peddle, and works real hard to get up to speed, so I figure I might as well not chance it, so I turned around and limped it back to town. truck has been tuned for 70000kms and has 105k on it. so theres no warranty left...

fuel rail pressure seemed to be holding, not wonky. they were high but im assuming that's because boost is high...?

everything else seems to be normal..
tried changing tunes, didn't do anything besides slow down the boost climb a little.

Anything I should try? is it cause of cold weather and moisture or?

Truck is a 2010 f350 CCSB
Spartan tuner, truck has been tuned for 70000kms
s&b intake
5" straight
egr delete

Any help would be greatly appreciated! this is my DD so im kinda stuck

With a full EGR delete the EP tube can become plugged with soot, or under certain conditions condensation can actually collect in the tube or sensor & freeze.
here is a picture of its location. it is #6

Both codes deal with the VGT & the actuator. This could be many things including the actuator itself. However two of the main sensors that input information into the ECM for control of the VGT actuator are the Exhaust pressure sensor & the Manifold Absolute Pressure sensor. The MAP sensor can also become plugged with sludge from a mixture of oil vapor from the crankcase vent system & exhaust gas from the EGR.
Check the operation of the VGT actuator itself before tearing into the sensors. With the key off, the linkage between the actuator & the turbo should move smoothly & freely by hand. When the key is turned to the "ON" position it should not be moveable by hand. While watching the actuator linkage, have someone start the truck, it should cycle open & then back when first started.

Great Ill start there then. I just got my garage heater installed today. -27C and -36C with wind chill. That's pretty much -40F, brutal! So I got it in the garage over night! ill be going at it over the next couple days, since I work 12 hour shifts and go back to work tomorrow!

Thanks Again

Okay so the actuator linkage is good, did the test you suggested. I changed the MAP sensor and EBP sensor and tube.. still throwing a P2263... What should I do next? Im close to turning it into the ford dealership here, but shop rates are $220HR!!!

any other ideas!?

I've been having the same problem and I have been getting very frustrated.... I've replaced the ebp tube and sensor a couple times, I've also replaced the map sensor. Last winter the dealer changed out the turbo actuator and that didn't help anything either. It acts up the most in winter but does some of this in summer too....Is it possible that the vanes are sticking on the turbo and that is causing this?
I have a 2008 F250 ccsb, spartan, afe intake, 5" straight, egr delete, arp head studs....

Do either of the guys with this issue use a winter front? They are supposed to help with this problem. Mine also does this in the cold, but I don't use mine in the winter so I don't worry too much about it. I will get the p2263 with the spartan 275 tho.

sounds like I found the answer. thanks to. Footlong70!
the stainless tube was put there to keep heat from the coolers away from the sensor. so with the coolers gone, he mounted the sensor right to the up pipes and it seems to be working! I'll be giving this a try right away!! as this issues keeps coming back every couple days or when it's below -25C..

thread is in the performance section - title '6.4 egr delete - tube freezing?'

The code p2263 is pretty common. It's a glitch between the factory tune and aftermarket tune. The factory tune is saying hey your making way more boost. Just delete it and go. It's not cold related as I live on the same city you do and throw the code all the time winter or summer, it's a soft code so it doesn't throw a wrench light.
