    A3 8L - ASZ 2003 PD TDI - All the problems you can get

    Understood :) I was only wondering what to do with the valve since I have an error code with it as well.

    A3 8L - ASZ 2003 PD TDI - All the problems you can get

    Meanwhile, I need to take care of a few things. I have been told that the turbo needs to be cleared/cleaned (?) also there is a valve that controls the pressure located near by the firewall. Can this cleaned too or it is better to change?

    A3 8L - ASZ 2003 PD TDI - All the problems you can get

    So I just got it back from the service station. It turned out I have an incorrect ECU version probably from a quattro. Lots of wires have been unplugged and cut in half. Probably I have a stucking issue with the VNT as said by tuffty earlier. Turbo needs to be cleaned. Parking aid could be...

    Nah, I do not think so. I'd rather say it has been put together from a diesel and a quattro... :ermm: but no way to find out the truth I guess.

    True! The reader could be wrong as well (the firend is a mechanic thou') but tomorrow I am taking the car to a Vw-Audi garage, I just wanted to know a bit more in advance and also not willing to loose too much money on changing every single part. Interesting fact I have a quattro glovebox door!

    A3 8L - ASZ 2003 PD TDI - All the problems you can get

    Yeah, I am thinking about the same as for the quattro thing, perhaps an incorrect ECU version, but still unclear the whole story. The car is from germany by the way. I had no chance clearing the codes then checking again. I have no VAG or VCDS around. A friend read it for me last time. Since...

    Here they are. Full hunagrian or german at some places. Hopefully the code numbers can help instead. Apologies for the quality! http://s2.postimg.org/ko1vcvsm1/DSC03024.jpg http://s2.postimg.org/9pqlup40p/DSC03025.jpg http://s2.postimg.org/p8o1rtcbd/DSC03026.jpg...

    I do have the list, however it was read with a Hungarian software therefore most of the fault codes useless for you I think. But I'll get them today somehow with the code numbers. I'll be back with the results. Thanks for your fast response and help!

    Greetings to All Try to make it short (won't make it :laugh:). Bought the car in February this year. It was more than a bargain! My first Audi and PD TDI. I knew it would have a few probs but now its more than you can imagine. First of all, blinking sign on dash - laptop (VAG) says it's only...

    Audi A3 8L Speedometer and Fuel Gauge Fault. Video.

    I also had some like that with my Opel back in 2011. But this was wheel hub bearing issue.

    17963 maximum boost exceeded? intermitent boost problem??

    Sure! Not rude of you, sorry, I may have not read all the forum rules. I thought the fewer the topic/thread the better the forum is :) Apologies!

    17963 maximum boost exceeded? intermitent boost problem??

    Well, I am having various codes. Starting from airbag,quattro, temperature, steering wheel positioning, and so on. probably overboost too. Sadly I do not have the list with me right now. This is my first Audi (and PD TDI), what is VNT? :blush: I understand it's something with the vanes :) (Also...

    17963 maximum boost exceeded? intermitent boost problem??

    Guys I am having something similar. In 6th gear around 130-140 Kph I am losing turbo boost. It's like I'd have a minimal but can't feel any real power. If I stopped the car then restart it, there is still no boost but after a few minutes it's back! :wtf: Where to start? (ASZ, 8L, PD TDI 2003)...
