    MAF readings too low?

    I think that my turbine is not able to deliver so much power anymore. I also checked vag parameter Duty Cycle, but I not sure anymore what was all about it. Can you do the VAG-COM log like I append it? RPM vs Duty Cycle, so I can compare it. Duty cycle log...

    Sensors location - Climate Control

    i found something interesting: (not for model audi a3) 1 - Kick down switch Not installed on all vehicles Disengages A/C compressorCan also be controlled by Transmission Control Module (TCM) or Engine Control Module (ECM) 2 - Connector station 3 - Footwell/defroster flap motor -V85-...

    Sensors location - Climate Control

    sensor on block 57 react very quickly as you described, but what is your temp on sensor (block 56), does it ever go over 17°C?

    Sensors location - Climate Control

    one more example when the cabine is already warmed: sensor on block 56 has temp: 17°C sensor on block 57 has temp: 27°C ----------------------------------------- average temp of sensors : (17°C + 27°C) / 2 = 22°C desired temp on climate control: 23°C Why is the temp on sensor 56 so low...

    Sensors location - Climate Control

    I'll measure temperature with IR thermometer while the car will be warming up and report it here. What's the block on VAG that I can see the colant temperature?

    Sensors location - Climate Control

    I think you mean that 49 is oil temperature and 51 is colant temperature (because 49 is warming up slower) hmm, about block 49; I'm not so sure that's the oil temerature, because the temperature never drops below 30°C (even ouside temerature is -10°C), or it's possible that sensor has minimal...
