I have these fault codes and was just wondering if anyone could put them in laymans terms for me... cos I,m as thick as a bulls foreskin lol Cheers Rob

I'd check all plumbing to N75 I think mate

Righty... essentially this little lot looks related... meaning there is one fault and as a result its upset other sensors... I would suspect the MAF at this stage...

Has anything happened to prompt this fault code check? these could be old codes if this is the first scan you know of... clear them and check again after a bit of driving...

Not enough info really to start a full diag but if they come back after clearing then clear again and unplug the MAF and see what comes back... some logging would also be useful although limited on the unregistered version of VCDS

the top 1 is a rite fukker iv got it still no leaks new maf etc etc
next stop is the IAT sensor
17743/P1335 - Engine Torque Monitor 2: Control Limit Exceeded

Possible Symptoms

• Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) ON
• Reduced Power

Possible Causes

• Intake hose(s) or intake system leaks (Unmetered Air) after MAF
• Intake Air Temperature sensor faulty
• Mass Air Flow Sensor (G70) faulty
• Engine Coolant Temperature sensor faulty
• Restricted Air or Fuel Filters

Possible Solutions

• Check intake hose(s) or intake system for leaks (Unmetered Air) after MAF
• Check Intake Air Temperature sensor
• Check Mass Air Flow Sensor (G70)
• Check Engine Coolant Temperature sensor
• Check Air and Fuel Filters

Special Notes

• Check O2 Sensor(s) Adaptation Values Before Clearing Faults: Fuel Trim Information

17743 is a hard one, and what can cause it is if your MAF is bouncing about unbracketed on a cone.....

 

[cecilthesausage]

Ah f@@kin hell what have I done I try the J Valve on my APY and its opened a right old can of worms lol...... Cheers for all the help lads

 

[Sandip]

This 17963 is becoming a pain in the ***!

 

[cecilthesausage]

Have you got 17963 as well Sandip?

 

[Sandip]

Have you got 17963 as well Sandip?

Yep, seems to have settled down a bit but if i keep it on boost it'll go into limp and chuck up 17963, drive slow for a while and it's back to normal. So mine intermittant now.

What can cause charge pressure to increase apart from the N75???

 

[cecilthesausage]

Mines not goin into limp mode but my boost is intermittant and she is runnin like a dog sometimes there sometimes not..... My wife is always moanin sayin theres always something wrong with that car.... F@@kin hell if only she knew the half... lol. But its all part of the intense love affair of owning an S3..... Right or Wrong ? Answers on a postcard

 

[s3dave]

Right.....Cecil im sure you will tell her all sorts.......like me....

"AH well exhausts gone luv....better get one of those cheapo millteks........it should see us through luv..." AUDI WOULD CHARGE DOUBLE...

 

[cecilthesausage]

Hahahahaha I got my Headlight upgrade she didnt even notice, nor did she notice the big red porsche calipers..... what milltek catback lol...... I bet she does,nt even notice the S3 aluminium wing mirrors ive just bought neither cos i have the plastic ones on anyway......lol

 

[s3dave]

AHH best ones to have like mine.......it would not suprise me if she never noticed a changed colour.....she looks for the 4 rings and says hows she running....
