Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here

  

Kaymax -> Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (10/28/2004 12:22:10 PM)

hope all is well! i have a RS6 manuel and i have the following problem:
Check Engine light
dealership states that it's O2 sensor related, but this is my sixth trip to them with no result. the Dealership tried "TO FIX THE PROBLEM" by replacing all the vac hoses but the c/e keeps appearing after you drive the car.
please advise if you can.

Kaymax -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/1/2004 10:12:14 AM)

yes, that is correct. five speed tiptronics, i was thinking about my 95 Supra.

let me know if you want the Vin Number or the dealer's telephone number who's working on the car... and go to the Supra forums and look for Kaymax

Kaymax -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/1/2004 11:56:27 AM)

well? want the dealers telephone number to call? you can call Dusty or frank at MVP racing-because i just bought a MAP ECU from him. HMMMM.....

Kaymax -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/1/2004 11:59:09 AM)

MAP ECU is for the 95 Supra single t66 ball bearing dynoed at Turbo Trix in NJ at 475 hp 425 t. Ask for JR at Turbo trix..and the only reason why i bought this piece of **** (RS-6) is because it's the FAMILY car.. ha ha ha

Kaymax -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/1/2004 12:00:44 PM)

But thanks for your reply!

Kaymax -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/1/2004 12:03:12 PM)

BTW- i got a tech response on ****.com

Kaymax -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/1/2004 12:10:23 PM)

why the **** would i ask for help on my o2 sensor and list it in two forums?
sad.....

99a4audi -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/1/2004 12:21:02 PM)

whoa guy calm down. i believe you.....

Kaymax -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/1/2004 12:37:07 PM)

i went a little overboard on the last thread. i guess you guys(Audi forums) have the same problems we have(supraforums) ,people who do not have this rare machine sign on to give their two cents worth but don't realize it's a waste of time to the members who need help(cuz the dealers know very little about this model). but i assure you this is a ligit problem and i will look into the "lemon law"!

Either back down or go home. Don't Hate, Masturbate!

Both of you settle down!

Jestnomen -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/1/2004 3:16:39 PM)

Only thing I can think of is MAF, O2 sensors, and vacuum hoses.

Kaymax -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/1/2004 4:04:42 PM)

Jestnomen- tnx for the reply. i need to ask the dealer if they are hooking the car up to a VAG fault reader instead of a OBD reader. i'll follow up on Wed.

David- just having fun! i appreciate 99a4audi reply and thanked him for it. BTW- do you have an idea what may cause the "check engine"?

99a4audi -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/1/2004 4:16:35 PM)

yo man i meant no dissrespect at all. u kinda jumped down my throat for no reason. but i have no idea what to tell ya about the check engine light. is the car still under warranty? if it is take it to the dealer and they SHOULD fix it for free

Kaymax -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/1/2004 4:42:14 PM)

yeah, i'm just pissed the SOX won! heh heh, they deserved (sox) it, come back from 3-0. And you're from Mass, i sell shrimp, so a lot of my clients in Boston are being "poor sports". not that i can blame them, it's kinda like not getting laid for 86 years.

but i still need this stupid check engine light off. if not "lemon law"!

Jestnomen -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/1/2004 7:04:36 PM)

Kaymax, a obd reader and a Vag are basically one in the same.

Kaymax -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/1/2004 8:20:44 PM)

all dealers have the OBD reader and can detect errors but....

Jestnomen -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/1/2004 9:25:08 PM)

Oh I gotcha, an example of a generic obd reader would be something like they use at autozone. The dealer uses a very expensive reader, specific to audi/vw, that picks out ALL codes.

99a4audi -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/2/2004 4:43:26 PM)

wait are you from mass also?!?! If so we should def meet up. haha ya its about time the red sox won!

99a4audi -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/3/2004 12:25:02 PM)

Do you live in Mass?

Kaymax -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/3/2004 1:14:44 PM)

99a4audi -> RE: Check engine light! Help! It's getting cold out here (11/3/2004 7:52:48 PM)
