Effing Audi...

[SlappyB6]

So once again I have a CEL. I ran the VAG-COM, got P1114, P0571 and P1136. I know the first refers to the 2nd O2 sensor, but does anyone have info on the others?

So I cleared those, restart the car, and it idles like crap. Which it always has after I reset a CEL. Then I get P0300, P0302 and P0304, which are multiple cylinder misfires. Which makes me think that once again, my damn coil packs are saying goodbye to me.

Any info or advice on this? Only think done to my car is a test pipe with the spark plug anti-fouler spacer.

did u get a chip recently? I'm sure it has something to do with a vacuum leak.

[SlappyB6]

Nope, no chip. Nothing else done to the car at all.

[SlappyB6]

Protein, you're my hero. I found it. The tube that comes off the N75, and splits into a "Y," one gone into the check valve and down the side of the air intake, the other shoots to the back of the engine bay. It had split completely in half. Guess I'll either try to find a replacement at Autozone, or I'll be making a trip to the dealership tomorrow.

Glad that wasnt that bad, here is more info about in line check valves

[SlappyB6]

Yeah, believe me, I've already read that thread. I'm going to replace all of them probably this weekend, along with the vacuum hose. I couldn't find one at the auto parts store, so I'll have to call the dealership tomorrow. Yippee!

Edit: Does anyone have a part number for this specific vacuum hose? It comes off the N75 right behind the air box, and splits into a "Y".

Just go to NAPA and get some. Save yourself some money.

[SlappyB6]

What, check valves? I don't plan to get those from the dealership. What about the Y-shaped vacuum hose?

[akordboy]

nah, the vac lines. I think I spent lik $10 on 8 feet of it. I ordered my check valve from ECS for $16

[SlappyB6]

Yeah, but this is a very specific vacuum line, or else I would have just gotten some line while I was at the parts store tonight. Here's a quick, crappy photoshop to show what I'm talking about...



It's not just a typical vacuum hose.

P.S. Thanks to NyteEscape for the original picture.

[SlappyB6]

Correction on my part. It's the N80, not the N75. I did a quick fix on it, and ordered a new one from the dealership. Hope it doesn't cost too much.

[widgget]

you had me confused until i saw the photo and realized you were talking about the N80, not N75. lol

[SlappyB6]

Yeah, that was a brain fart on my part. Sorry, with as many problems as I've had with this car, I was a bit upset last night. It's all good though.
