    central hose under manifold

    I know this has probably been covered but i need to order the hosing from work tomorrow to fix at the weekend. My question is what size id does it have on the agu? I think its the last hose to do and it has a huge split in it and i have a terrible idle and Im also convinced it is not helping...

    A3 1.8T Revo Mapped...Not fully boosting

    Haha i will give that a go tomorrow! Not had my ecu scanned again yet, but i guess the codes will still be there as i drove the car last night and today. It feels so good to have boost back, can't wait to route the boost gauge hose better so the door doesn't crush it anymore. I still can't...

    A3 1.8T Revo Mapped...Not fully boosting

    Ok little update. Bought a new MAF today and pulls alot harder. The 007p valve is still very quiet with the drilled box though which I find interesting, as I'm sure with a drilled box the recirc valve is normally quite loud still?

    Post pics of your A3/S3

    Here's a few pics of mine: Took rear adjusters out of the coilovers today so now back end is sat like this: Need to un-seize drivers side front coilover so I can match the front end to level it out. Matt.

    Just ran the car with no maf and it idled perfect. Ran with no boost so i think that's where my problem lies!

    A3 1.8T Revo Mapped...Not fully boosting

    The free things are always worth checking first. If it helps then i shall replace the lambda sensor as well. Will also check the maf tonight

    Just read your actuator thread. Going to check mine later never thought of it coming loose, however i did think of turning it up slightly yesterday

    A3 1.8T Revo Mapped...Not fully boosting

    I understand lol. A friend who recently sold his cable throttle golf 1.8t has his mapped and reckoned that only ran 6-8psi. Im sure it should run just over a bar one stage1?

    My guess would be something is upsetting the afr which is why the lambda code is coming up as it's seeing a difference in normal values. So i think i need to find out exactly what's going on with the live datafeed from vagcom?

    A3 1.8T Revo Mapped...Not fully boosting

    Checked all vac lines, all boost pipes and no splits or leaks. I need to pressure test the system really to check the intercooler as I've had a split intercooler before. Will also try unplugging the maf and driving it later see if the running changes at all

    Standard exhaust system no decat or anything. It doesn't go into limp mode as it still revs all the way round just feels like its on a standard map.

    A3 1.8T Revo Mapped...Not fully boosting

    Just scanned if using a sealey vag scanner. I got codes 00561 and 16514. I do have a rough, hunting idle at times. Today i replaced the blue coolant temp sensor to get the gauge working. Getting really annoyed with it now

    My 1998 S plate A3 1.8t has been mapped for about 18 months now. When my mate had it done it was great, pulled hard. But over the past 18 months he hasn't hardly driven it hard maybe once in a while. Anyway I bought it from him yesterday afternoon and it's only running 7-8 psi so pretty much...
