For some reason this is not showing in my list of fault codes. My guess is this has something to do with idle or camshaft position sensors as car is not idling correctly.

Anyone have any exposure...

I'm pretty sure you have a slit in one of your hoses, (I had this twice). You will not be able to see slit unless there is boost so "checking" with your eye will not help.

Ditto that. Also, make sure Oxygen sensors are OK as they will send ECU into default mode, (which

is running rich) and really hurt your fuel mileage, (on top of that clog your cat too).

I run two temps cooler and was in a cold climate. Started car

only for 30 seconds and turned off. Next time I tried to start plugs were fouled.
Bottom line, let engine run for a few mins., (especially if it's cold) so one doesn't loose plugs.

Re: 02 1.8 getting 20 mpg, does that sound right?

Any car will not produce "normal" fuel mileage until engine and oil are completely warm- Especially in colder weather. Driving 1.5 miles to work engine is still in "rich" mode and oil is fully warm....

I have both. My A4 is black and my A6 is silver. Black is sexy and great looking but

requires a lot more work to keep clean. Plus, living here in Fl it gets very hot most of the year.
Silver is great. Looks cleaner, stays cooler and is easy to live with.
Either way, you will like...
