Audi Tech Tip: Identifying Animal Bite Marks And Solutions
Some customers may report electrical problems that might seem unrelated or in just one system. The issue could be animals biting wire insulation, cables and hoses.
Audi Brake Pad Wear Sensor Operation And Service
Almost every Audi for the past 20 years has been equipped with electronic brake pad wear sensors. Most of them mount the brake pad with a clip, but some are molded into the brake pad. These sensors change their electrical resistance as the loop of wire is worn down and eventually breaks as the brake pads wear down.
Air Management For The FSI V6 And V8 Engines
The FSI 3.2 L V6 and 4.2 L V8 have a lot in common with the FSI 2.0 L four-cylinder engine, including carbon deposit problems. Chances are your first exposure to an Audi intake manifold will not be a driveability complaint, but rather a carbon cleaning service where the intake valves need to be cleaned.

Audi Fuel System Diagnostics
When a 2009 Audi A4 was towed in the other day, and Code P0087/16471 “Fuel System Rail Pressure Too Low” was found stored in the ECM, it was way too easy for my tech to say, “I bet it needs a new high-pressure pump.” If I were a betting man, he would have lost. It seems that nine times out of 10, it does need a high-pressure pump, but there are other problems that will set that code.
Audi Direct-Injection Issues & Carbon Deposits
In 2006, we saw the first of the direct-injection cars. VW and Audi located the injectors directly into the combustion chambers for greater efficiency. By this time, we had been seeing variable valve timing for at least six years, and there were a few cars that had variable intake runners. The new A4s and Passats had both and, in addition to the in-tank fuel pump, they had a cam-driven, Âmechanical high-pressure fuel pump that ran the fuel pressure as high as 120 bar. They are great cars, but began to exhibit a few problems that we started to see after a few years.
Fastest Ever Audi S8 Sets New Benchmarks
Ramping up power from the 513 HP offered by the ‘standard’ S8 to an intoxicating 597 HP, the S8 plus is also capable of producing up to 553.2 lb. ft. of torque on demand – the highest output of any Audi in the current model range.
