    Avant rear wiper wont switch off

    The wiper wouldnt turn off, so the original motor burnt out due to the resistance on the dry glass, so I get a new motor and switch (stalk), and the thing still wont turn off. Audi tell me theres no relay? Or atleast there isnt one listed. What next chaps? Thanks Jim

    01 PD TDI, problem when wet/damp

    Vacuum as in the one that goes thru the bulkhead to the servo, as I did notice that one doesnt take much moving about to emit a hissing noise, where it goes from stiff plastic, to rubber grommet thru the bulkhead.

    01 PD TDI, problem when wet/damp

    Is the n249 valve what i as a vw man would call an N75 valve; the variable boost controller thing? I had wandered about that. Will check the i/c plumbing but i guess checking from MAF to ECU is nigh on impossible as it all disappears into the loom? ECU is dry, 1st thing I checked! Thanks

    01 PD TDI, problem when wet/damp

    Thanks guys. I ought to have put that it did come up with the MAF and on fitting a new one made no difference, but I guess it wouldnt if its the actual connection. Its just been in again and came up with ' 4623 boost pressure below control' or something, which may not be related. Thanks again jim

    My mrs has an A4 Avant 130tdi on a 51 plate, and for as long as we have had it it has had a running problem when it gets wet, or really damp. It will only do it when it is damp or wet, but by no means does it always do it when damp/wet......with me so far?! Then I shall continue! IT...

    OK Avant owners how does the jack go back in his box?

    you guys never had golfs then! the jack is same as mk2 golf. sire same as 1,3 and 4 aswell. funny tho, we bought an avant for my missus and the original jack was missing, assume it had been launched through a hedge at the side of the road!
