P1475, mass sputtering! - 5/12/2008 5:52:32 PM    Apdl   Posts: 64 Joined: 7/4/2007 Status: offline Ok All I replaced my coil packs and plugs today and then went to go clear my codes with the hope that it would take care of my 300 301 303 and 304 codes. Much to my suprise after clearing the codes the car starts tripping balls! sputtering like crazy! there was a new code that i noticed when I went to clear it it was P1475. Could this cause such problems? What do i do next? In the start of all of this was a P0171. The light has not come back on so i really have no friggin clue what to do! _____________________________ My XD-9 goes BANG 2001 Audi A4 1.8TQM Post #: 1

The P0171 code is indicating you have a large vaccum leak somewhere, or you MAF sensor is no good. Most likely you have a bad vaccum check valve. _____________________________ 00 A4 1.8T (in reply to Apdl) Post #: 2

Check your fuel trims using data block 32, if its a positive number its adding fuel to compensate for a vaccum leak. The check valves looks like a small little valve in between vaccum lines, it has a grey side and a black side to the valve, there is a total of 4 in the engine bay. Look them up at www.ecstuning.com to see what they look like. _____________________________ 00 A4 1.8T (in reply to Apdl) Post #: 5

A lingering thought has been that it is the Fuel Filter I have a new one I just need to install it could this be a possible cause? I cant thank you enugh auditech79 _____________________________ My XD-9 goes BANG 2001 Audi A4 1.8TQM (in reply to auditech79) Post #: 6

I take it back, i think the B5 only has three of them. Can you hear a hiss noise  coming from any of them? _____________________________ 00 A4 1.8T (in reply to Apdl) Post #: 7
