    Audi Extended Warranty Thoughts

    I did think of the named components but it excludes sat nav which with hearing some stories of the MMI falling over I'm uncomfortable taking such a big risk for a couple of hundred quid.

    170ps dpf sensor fault

    My A4 170PS went into limp mode with a flashing coil light, EML and DPF symbol. DPF Symbol came on first but after no joy with a regen (usual motorway driving in 4th/5th above 2k revs) the coil light and EML then came on. Going by the above I believed it to be a faulty DPF Sensor...

    VCDS Renfrewshire ?

    I'm needing a favour to reset an EML light on my 2007 B7 A4 170ps. I have cleared the DPF fault (I think !) by disconnecting the DPF sensor and giving it a clean, a scan would be good also to confirm this was what the problem was. Any help appreciated. Cheers

    advice on s line tdi tdv

    My take on it is... 1.9TDI and 2.0TDI (140ps only) Jan 05 to Dec 05 - non TDV vehicles Dec 05 to end - TDV vehicles CO2 Emmissions for each dropped from 158g/km to 153g/km with the TDV model (2.0tdi figures) The only 2.0 TDI with a DPF is the 170ps version which is a non TDV model

    It finally happened, DPF !

    No delete pipe for the A4 170ps, Leon and Golf yes. By the time one was specifically fabricated and the recoding carried out there is no guarantee that my dash won't still light up like a xmas tree, potentially false economy. No DPF's in the UK 10 working days should be here start of next...

    DPF removal on Audi A4 (B7) 2.0 Tdi 170 Quattro Avant

    have a look here..... http://alternativefuels.about.com/od/glossary/g/dpf.htm Known for choking up generally when people are constanly toodling round town and very little motorway driving. Around £1k + labour to replace if damaged, which I've had to do due to another problem. If removed...

    What could be wrong with my car? MPG related.

    That seems a big increase in power for the 140, I've only ever looked at the 170 remap figures right enough (currently running a bluefin on a 170ps, adds approx 35/40) Do you know anyone else with a similar map ? to compare fuel consumption.

    It finally happened, DPF !

    Turns out it's actually a HP fuel pump failure, the gasket has failed and has been mixing oil with the excess fuel returned to the fuel tank, which then in turn gets dragged back round the system, vicious circle. New pump Removal of fuel tank and clean up Clean out fuel lines Remove injectors...

    DPF removal on Audi A4 (B7) 2.0 Tdi 170 Quattro Avant

    It's a special by a fabricator if you want one, well into 4 figures, is the A3/Leon option not around £1k inlcuding the custom code to ignore the dpf and that's with an off the shelf bypass pipe. I've checked with no success of a cheapish solution or I would have freed up another 20/30bhp by now.

    It finally happened, DPF !

    I've had it recovered to my driveway due to it chucking it on my way out the other day, DPF warning came on, very quickly after that the glow plug symbol started to flash, restricted performance seconds later the EML came on and it chucked it. All this happened within 30 seconds of the DPF...
