Default My throttle body needed 'readapting' today, and (more)..

It seems that the fly-by-wire throttle and the butterfly in the TB don't always communicate just so. IOW, 'zero' can drift. And, I am told this can happen anywhere from weekly to never. I never have really heard of this being an issue on the 2.7T. So, can anyone provide more detail?

Default I adapt mine every week, because....well I dont know why.

Turn key to last notch before engine starts. Leave there for three minutes. Turn off for five seconds. All done.

Sometimes I here it making a whirring noise as it adjusts. Other times I dont hear anything so I guess it did not need adjusting.

Default Adaptation with VAG-com?

Is this procedure correct for the A6 also....<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/568326.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/568326.phtml</a</li></ul>
