    Issue with RPM

    Thank you for your response! I am unsure whether or not i have a clutch switch, have to check that when i get home. I am unsure however if this might be the cause since, as i should have mentioned in the post, the problem also occurs when putting the car into neutral and then releasing the...

    Can anyone help me please? Wiring Issue...

    Hello, Soldering it back together should solve the problem, and covering the connection up with something (preferably not tape). If the ecu has proper connection to the ABS-sensor, it will reset after driving for a little bit (So the sensor gets some pulses). But when you soldered the wires...

    Why do crank pos sensor fail?

    Hmm.. Seems a bit odd. I have changed the crank sensor once but has had no other issues with it. I am absolutely no professional, but the only thing that strikes me is if the voltage to the sensor might be high/low? But that also seems a bit odd. You could try to measure the voltage while...

    A3 problems

    *Update I realized that the MAF I changed to was not correct for the car. So after purchasing the correct and a higher quality (NGK) the problem with the RPM disappeared. I haven't measured the exhaust yet, so I am unsure whether or not this solved the problem with the car running rich...

    A3 problems

    Thank you for your reply :icon thumright: The tuning was made by a well respected Swedish company "BSR" and I am hesitant if that is the cause of the problems. The catalytic converter is stock and I had a look at it while repairing the leak in the downpipe (i cut the exhaust pipe about 20 cm...

I have fixed all of them but 2 I have no fault codes, I just cleared a "Throttle position sensor; Fault in basic settings" by changing throttle body. I do not have the full version of VCDS so I have not had the...
