The P0299 error code in the Chevy Trax indicates a problem with the turbocharger and its compromised boost power. A mechanic will look for a faulty turbo or supercharger, injector control pressure sensor, a mechanical engine malfunction, low oil or an EGR system error. The condition is caused when the Trax' MAP or the manifold "absolute pressure sensor" detects poor pressure inside the intake manifold. Intake pressures are affected by turbocharging output, accelerator pedal input, engine speed, exterior air temperature, and barometric pressures. The owner will notice the "check engine" light illuminated. Costs to replace the injector control sensor range from $250-$300 in parts and labor. Costs to replace the turbocharger itseLFAverages $1,200-$1,500 in materials and labor.
