P0299 code

I have an '06 F250 with a little over 45K miles on it. Last weekend while pulling our 5th wheel it threw the CEL. Had it read this morning and got a P0299 code. I live in Keller, TX (just north of Ft. Worth). Anyone have a mechanic they can recommend?

Turbo underboost.

Check EGR valve.. when is last time you cleaned it...

Complete decarbon / clean is what I would do... aren't you under warranty
? 5 year 100,000 mile warranty... Ford fix.

Oasis says the warranty start date is 11/05, so it should be out. I bought it 2 years ago and shortly after had warranty done ( bedplate leak). It still had plenty of power and ran fine coming home.

There may be a longer emissions warranty, I always ask.

If the EGR clean doesn't fix it, and it is turbo... it is more $$$

and this:

A P0299 Turbo Underboost code can set by numerous causes, namely a leak on the intake side between the turbo, charge air cooler and intake, a biased or improperly functioning EBP sensor, a leak on the exhaust side between the exhaust manifold and turbo up-pipe to the turbo, a restricted exhaust or restricted (plugged up) intake and a stuck VGT unison ring. Now your job is to pinpoint which of the above is causing the code to set.
