    Dv Valve location

    I might be a bit late to save you some hassle. But the divertor valve on the 2.0 and 1.8 tfsi engines is electrically operated not vacuum, so no hose to connect your boost gauge too anyway.

    Rear wiper, remove or replace?

    Keep it. I don't get the fad for removing them, as with the weather in our country you will spend 50 percent of the time with a window you can't see out of if you remove it. The shape of the back end seems to make the rear screen attract rain and road muck.

    Where is my recirculating valve...? 1.8tfsi

    If you have the 1.8 tfsi engine, in the audi a3 from 2008 onwards, then unfortunately no there is no vacuum hose connected to the recirculating ( diverter) valve. Neither can you do a straight fit of the 007 or 008p valves. Forge do supply a boost gauge adapter for fitting a gauge...

    Where is my recirculating valve...? 1.8tfsi

    Its on the back end of the engine, low down, mounted to the turbo charger. You have to jack up the car to get to it. Just to note that its electronically controlled, so if you were hoping to use it as a vacuum source, its not going to help. hope this helps

    Can anyone retrofit cruise control to 8p s3?

    Just to mention, although it will be in the thread about fitting cruise control, that as well as fitting the parts you will also need to get it coded to the car to get the cruise control to work. This requires either finding someone local to you who has vcds, purchasing it yourself (what I did)...

    Bluefin Remap. Hesitation while accelerating?

    Thanks. I did wonder if it could be a coil after reading through the forum. Is it easy to spot a failing coil if I log the car?

    Bluefin Remap. Hesitation while accelerating?

    Thanks for all the advice. I've got new spark plugs on the way as they haven't been changed for 20000 miles + I assume a coil pack on they way out would show on a vcds scan?

    Bluefin Remap. Hesitation while accelerating?

    No, its not clutch slip. It happens before boost really starts to build and revs don't jump up. It actually feels almost like a fueling cut. Once on boost and going up through the gears it doesn't seem to happen again.

    Bluefin Remap. Hesitation while accelerating?

    I'll try removing and re-installing later today. Although I did install it carefully the first time. I was in the car with both doors closed and followed the instructions to the letter.

    Bluefin Remap. Hesitation while accelerating?

    Hi all, I have just remapped my 2009 A3 1.8 tfsi, and am now experiencing an occasional hesitation when accelerating from low revs. When in gear and pulling from 1500 revs or so, it will sometimes pause for a few seconds as the boost starts to come in and then suddenly come on to full boost. Its...
