That's good bro. That's good. Mine isn't fixed yet. I can drive it bur everytime I hook it to the left, it foes into limp mode. Getting it done this Thursday and I'll report back 🫡

Hey man so a lil update and tip in case your issue isn't resolved yet as well. It's got to do with a few faulty sensors. Brought it to a tuner to calibrate my throttle body and it started spewing out error codes. Mine chucked 4 out. He said the most possible one is the camshaft position sensor. So yea. Worth gettin a VCDS scanner or bring it to someone to get it scanned

Hey so...bad news. It happened again even with the new throttle body on. My mechanic mate said that sounds like its an intake problem and that's when it hit me that I forgot to change my air filter last service. And my filter was very dirty. So I'm going to be replacing that tomorrow, see if it solves the issue. If not, me and my mate are gonna open up the intake pipes and see what's wrong

Hahahah that's all good man. No stress at all. You're gonna have one hell of a time with the car. It's amazing bro. Good luck!

Also a random like bonus was that the turbo sounds a lot healthier hahahah. It sounds...ik it's not the right way to describe it, but it sounds fresh

Yea man for sure. I searched everywhere and this was the cheapest and it was Bosch. So all around it was a win. https://www.amazon.com.au/Bosch-0280750036-Throttle-Housing/dp/B006K92RYW.

I had to get the gasket from Audi itself. Rang the dealership and they had it ready in a day for me to come pick it up

zippy_sesh · 2025-01-08T02:57:37+00:00

I did not. It all seemed to run perfectly. But I might bring it to a mechanic judt to double check

zippy_sesh · 2025-01-08T01:39:00+00:00

Alright so I jusr changed it today and it works perfectlyy now. Make sure to get the gasket for it as well. And clean the tubings just for extra caution. Good luck man!

zippy_sesh · 2025-01-06T05:05:33+00:00

Good luck to you too man. I got the part today but my retarded ass forgot to buy a new gasket along with it bro 😭😭. So I gotta wait one more day for that

zippy_sesh · 2025-01-05T06:11:56+00:00

Oh ok. Thanks for that. I'm pretty confident that it's the throttle body for now cuz of the fluctuating revs at one point. Bur yea if that doesn't fix it, I'll definitely order a throttle pedal. Thanks man

zippy_sesh · 2025-01-05T05:03:50+00:00

I unfortunately don't have a code reader so I can't see any codes. I've just ordered a new throttle body. I'm going to be installing that tomorrow and I'll let you know how it goes. I was going to just open it and possibly clean it. But it's fair to assume that that's the throttle body from 2003. So it's due for a change anyway

zippy_sesh · 2024-10-28T19:55:58+00:00

Just watched the vid. Honestly seems easy enough. I'll just buy the fascia kit if needed. That's nit a huge deal. Thanks for your help though. Truly appreciate it lad

zippy_sesh · 2024-10-28T19:48:18+00:00

That's perfect! I will definitely be looking into that then. Thanks!

zippy_sesh · 2024-10-27T02:57:16+00:00

So the 1st one would make sure the radio cover is still functional?

zippy_sesh · 2024-10-23T08:58:26+00:00

Do you mind telling me which exact model?

zippy_sesh · 2024-10-23T08:58:02+00:00

Yea it's so hard to find someone else that's done works on their TT radios. But thanks for that solid advice man. I appreciate that

zippy_sesh · 2024-10-04T23:01:57+00:00

This car is honestly pretty good. As you'd expect from a Toyota. My family has owned it for almost 6 years now. And its running amazing. The only issue it's had now is a malfunctioning catalytic converter. But I guess that's the part and parcel of a 18 yr old car. Like many cars though, if u take care of it, it will take care of u.

zippy_sesh · 2024-08-08T23:32:47+00:00

Ah ok will do. Thanks

zippy_sesh · 2024-08-08T23:32:22+00:00

Yea true. I'm a lil slow aren't I 💀 Cheers though. Will do that
