steve, i remember a similar discussion i had with you the last time this happened>>
Posted by: debashis (1856) on 2010-02-08 23:09:47 In Reply to: Stop!......>> posted by Modshack...Re'tired' on 2010-02-08 22:49:39	Share \| Report

here's my MAF history:
first MAF: pure ms
second MAF: champagne motorsports, CO (they are the MTM dealer for the Rocky Mountain area and specialize in tuning Audis; so I guess they know what they're doing)
third MAF(and the one on the car now): www.partsquick.com 06A 906 461 EX Bosch

i'm lost and dunno where i'm going wrong! car runs great each time i put a new sensor on, and i know when it needs a new one because it hesitates and doesn't hit the boost it should in second and third!
ran it unplugged, car ran great, got the boost back, albeit with an esp light.
new (less than 600 miles) pre-cat 02 sensor, haven't changed the post cat yet, will do it one of these days.
less than 5k on spark plugs and coil packs

        i don't think i have a vac leak; it idles fine and runs great each time i put on a new MAF!!   -  debashis  2010-02-09 11:34:30 (9 views)
        
        if i was doing the diagnosis myself, then it could've been a different thing>>  -  debashis  2010-02-09 11:20:31 (17 views)
- Maybe you need to try and more expensive one and see if you get better mileage out of it IMO. - TCU_TT 2010-02-08 22:47:25 (25 views)
  - maybe i should do that, but i'm using the right part no. and manufacturer each time!!! - debashis 2010-02-08 23:11:13 (9 views)
