P1030 Diagnostic Trouble Code (7 interpretations)
7 manufacturer-specific interpretations across 5 manufacturers in the TuningBot DTC database.
BMW
1 interpretation
Dodge
1 interpretationThe control module detected that the signal in the Ignition coil, 2 - secondary circuit stayed below the expected operating range. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Dodge.
Possible causes
- Wiring
- connectors
- ignition coil 2
- spark plug
- ECM
MINI
1 interpretationThe control module detected a fault associated with the Valvetronics Monitoring Sluggish Movement circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by MINI.
PSA
2 interpretationsThe control module detected that the Fault in the programming of the variable valve lift system was not coherent with related operating data. Documented for the Bosch MED 17.4.x engine ECU (EP6 THP family) on Peugeot applications; the same PSA control units are also fitted to Citroën models.

VAG
2 interpretationsThe control module detected that the Intake manifold air control valve position value was below the expected limit. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Audi.
Possible causes
- Air control flap tight/sticking
- hose connection(s)
- intake manifold air control actuator
