    2004 3.2 DSG Quattro Sport stalling at low revs

    Update, problem solved. Was indeed the MAF causing the problem, the great guys at VWAudi Tec in chelmsford did a great job in swapping it out for a new one and a full throttle body clean out. Runs like a dream now ! :beerchug:

    Sat Nav/MMI differences before I buy a used A5

    Hi, looking at selling my A3 very soon and getting an A5 3.0 Tdi sport or s-line probably around a 2008/2009 model. I understand the fantastic difference in the B&O sound system but I'm at a total loss when it comes to the difference in the Sat Nav and MMI options that were installed, the only...

    VCDS codes. Running too rich

    No haven't checked plugs yet but i would imagine they are ready for replacement, they've been on the car for two years and done about 16,000 miles so may worth well be worth doing. Thanks for the link, shame they don't sell them in 6's !! Do you know if VCDS would show a dodgy plug or coil pack...

    VCDS codes. Running too rich

    Cheers for PM Steve, Yeah it is a very similar issue (well the same fault codes) but my problem goes from completely non-existent to totally undriveable as it constantly cuts out. I then leave it an hour to cool and it is faultless again, i'm wondering if mine is a coil pack breaking down as it...

    2004 3.2 DSG Quattro Sport stalling at low revs

    Not really sure of all the terminology with interfaces but the cable i have is a blue usb to 16 pin type made by a company called FTDI , as VCDS lite only uses com ports and not USB i had to get a COM port to Serial USB driver for the FTDI chip in the adapter. After a lot of trial and error i...

    2004 3.2 DSG Quattro Sport stalling at low revs

    Hi all, first post on here so please go gentle. Had my 3.2 8P for five years now, been pretty much faultless up until before Christmas, it started as a couple of stalls and rough idling at traffic lights, which would restart but die pretty much immediately, both the ABS and engine check lights...
