    HELP! CAPA V6 3.0tdi DPF Sensor Question....

    Hi, sorry i'm having a bit of a senior moment! Can someone enlighten me if the smaller pipe on the DPF sensor is supposed to be connected to anything (other than a short bit of tube that goes nowhere, as shown in picture)? I thought it was just a free air open pipe, but now i'm wondering if...

    11kwh and 22kwh home chargers...

    Thanks for you post. Yes I was refereref to the full ev, not the hybrid. I was basing my assumptions on this article I read: https://www.digitaltrends.com/cars/2019-audi-e-tron-quattro-battery-specs-range-launch-date/amp/ According to that the 11kwh and 22kwh chargers are the two home options?

    11kwh and 22kwh home chargers...

    I think I must be miscalculating, but based on the specs I have read online, the e Tron range will have a 11kwh charger, which takes aboit 12 hours, and a 22kwh charger which takes about 8 hours to charge. Going off the 11kwh charger and using an average of 14p per unit of electric, that's...

    EGR Valve question, able to clean without draining coolant?

As soon as i removed the bolts for the EGR valve, the coolant ran out (well everything that was in the top part anyway. After removing the bolts I also became aware that its impossible to remove the EGR valve without...

    Swirl Flap Failure, has the worst ever happened?

    That's good to know. So I've no need to worry about replacing them anytime soon then. Ive made mine work as follows, very crude but it's doing the job and cost nothing. No fault codes recorded since doing it.

    EGR Valve question, able to clean without draining coolant?

    My EGR valve has been putting the car into limp mode, so for the last year or so I have just unplugged it and although the MIL is on, the car isn't in limp mode anymore. Its a B8 3.0tdi (CAPA) engine. I would assume it needs cleaning, but looking at the procedure, it says the coolant need to be...

    Swirl Flap Failure, has the worst ever happened?

    We all know the swirl flaps can cause problems because the links get worn and the servo cant initialise within the correct limits, which most people repair by simply replacing the links (I opted for another approach of a bit of copper wire for one side and a small metal plate for the other). But...
