30FF code-boost leak
I'm still in under CPO and going to take it to the dealer.
I currently have a JB4 and will take it out before, however I read I should clear the codes before I remove it so the dealer doesn't know I have a tune. Will I have to wait for the Engine Fault light to appear (30FF) again so the dealer can trace the cause of the code?

Yes- The end of my OEM charge pipe looks intact, I didn't see any cracks anywhere.
HOWEVER. One of the Bypass valves has oily grimmy film all around it. I disconnected from the pipe and it also has some oil inside. How does this happen and where is it coming from???

Oil blow by, a catch can will decrease that. Although there appears to be quite a bit, but i'm only comparing that to my car, so it may actually be perfectly fine (That amount of oil).

That definitely doesn't look like a normal amount of blow by. Looking at the 2nd pic your front diverter valve could be gummed up and not closing properly. But I would be more concerned as to why there is an abnormal amount of oil in your intake tract.

I'd start by replacing th PCV with the RB one, and also a catch can. If you still have a lot of blow by then I'd say the turbos are the culprit.

Could be a bad vacum/boost solenoid line as well, simple to check and repair....

Could be a bunch of things...
- Vacuum line leak - Faulty boost solenoid - Wastegate not opening/closing properly due to worn out wastegate bearing - Boost leak from cracked charge pipe or air duct between the turbo and the IM Thankfully you are still covered. Keep us posted.

For 3 straigtht days I've noticed when the car is not warmed up and I speed up (not even close to WOT), I get the light. Even on map 0 on JB4.

If you're seeing oil film around your DVs on the charge pipe then you've got your issue solved. Your diverter valves are most likely faulty/leaking. I'd look into an aftermarket charge pipe that retains the OEM c-clip connection to the throttle body. Weather you go aftermarket DVs or BOV is a matter of personal taste. Our recommendation is to stay with DVs and recirculate.

Waiting around for dealership appt. In preparation a couple of days ago, I removed JB4, and dual cone intake. Guess What? I Can't trigger the stupid 30FF code.
I had a PTF tune before and never got a code. I install the JB4 I get a code. Remove it, no code. What's up w/ the JB4?

My issue right now, JB4 equals no 30FF. Installed Cobb and have 30FF. If JB ISO is not a pass through on map 0 that may be my problem so today I installed back end flash and ran customer JB map 6, no 30FF so I know it's not mechanical.
