Hi, are you suggesting the lack of turbo boost is a vacuum line issue leaking through the manifold actuator and not a boost leak? The compression test on the manifold is a red herring? I have a vacuum leak tester I can try. Although boost is back which is weird.

Update: I booked it in at a local garage (audi specialist). They advised fitting a new MAF prior to bringing it in as only a maf would cause under boost with no codes. They also stated my compression test is useless as there is an overlap between the inlet and outlet valves meaning it cannot...

Hi, how will that help? sorry to ask.

Hi, got the same problem on mine... pressurised the system and left hand side is hissing very load. Car has no boost at all on VCDS. no fault codes though? Is that Normal not the trow faults? I disconnected the intercooler hose completely to try and throw a underboost code but nothing. Same...

BUMP

I just tried to test the EGR in the output test with EGR off the car (plugged in) but there is no option to test it. Why do I not have this option? So instead I ran basic settings test, and the car revved to 3000k then back down to 1400, then the egr value went up and down more the 100mg/st...

Just logged from cold a 45min drive? fuel temp sensor fault? Its starts correct (outside temp) anyone?

Does the EGR test in basic settings need the clutch pressed in? The test where it raises idle to 1400RPM. During test it says clutch1 and brakes. Does nothing and then says abort? 1. Ignition on. 2. Click On 3. Press accelerator and brakes together but nothing happens please advise? I am not...

Just attached log from cold, to show that at idle the specified and actual are the same till 1800 revs, will log the fuel temp first thing with no engine running to see if fuel and coolant are same as air temp.

Hi All, Please can someone explain my VCDS readings? They seem really strange Bought an AUDI A3 BMN 170 07'. Got it home and smoked a bit at idle, with lumpy idle. I have VCDS so tweaked the torsion, and most of the smoke and all of the rough idle went away. However, the rear exhaust cam will...

Hi there Ch1, is there a audi A38P specific vcd section? Or just a vcd section?

See attached images? They are slightly different then match? How is this possible? Either the actual is set by ecu default or ecu speced is showing actual? seems at low revs is slightly different. Then as revs climb they match exactly. This cant be normal?

It pretty much holds 90, when it reaches 94 it comes back down, it holds 90 when idle. Its the fuel temp reading maxing out at 75c that concerns me and the egr/maf actual and spec being identical?

Hi all, PD170 BMN 07plate, getting poor economy. VCDS: No fault codes for some reason egr specified and egr actual are exactly the same when I log through the gears up to 4k revs (engine warm). Starting at 450ish to 1050 during load. Has the MAF failed? Why would it not throw a code? I...

Hi max69vk, I know this post is old but you appear very knowledgeable and have or had the same car as me (BMN 170 8PA). Would you know of any reason why I can not get my rear cam below 0.6l/h on VCDs no matter how smaller an adjustment I make? My front cam is set to 0deg which got rid of all...
