Manual throttle body adaptation on 1.8t??
just got my first audi a few weeks ago. lovin it so far, but since i had a subwoofer put in put i feel as though the car is a bit laggy. my batttery was probably disconnected. Should i try a TBA? is this safe for an 02 1.8t? would this even help me with the sluggishness?

got this info from another post.
Manual throttle body adaptation:
"The Throttle is "Drive By Wire" and adapts to your particular driving style. Do a TBA Throttle body adaption).
1. Get in your car, it doesn't matter if you close the door or not.
2. Turn the key to the on position, the position just before the starter turns over.
3. Press the gas pedal to the floor with the key in the "on" position.
4. Hold the pedal to the floor for five seconds, then turn the key back to the "off" position(don't remove the key), then release the gas pedal.
5. Wait 2 mins. for a full alignment. During this time you may hear very faint noises and clicks. I
only heard one sitting in my car, if I got out and popped the hood I might hear more.
6. Drive the car as you always do.
Depending on your driving style, this may or may not be a big factor. I do a lot of city driving so
I noticed a big change after erasing my history. It is not hard to do this, just follow the
instructions - Key on, pedal down, 5 sec, key off pedal up, wait 2 minutes.
Keep the key in for the entire thing. "

Yeah... I have a 2000 A4, never heard of 'floor the gas'.
I would suggest this:
1 - pop your hood.
2 - Put key in ignition and click to "ON". You can use your AC and everything lights up on this setting.
3 - Get out and put your ear close to your TB and listen for the clicking. Mine usually comes on about 10-15 seconds after I turn the key over to "ON".
4 - Wait for the clicking to stop (usually lasts about 30 seconds). Just as a good measure, I usually wait an extra minute in case of anything.
Hope this helps.

yes that works for average drivers but doesnt explain WOT ( wide open throttle ) which is a signal sent to the ECU of the capabilities of the system which cant be achieved with driving that's why we have chipping even though this doesnt take into account loss of info due to battery disconnection which the system has to re-learn all, and if you chipped your car you lost it all so re-flash it all

Honestly, I don't know if you are agreeing with me thats the way its done or disagreeing
Anyways, I have never used the WOT method. I have a GIAC chip and I have never had a problem with putting my foot to the floor (WOT) and these ECU signals. It knows when I want to go.
