Default Would you happen to have the number of that recall or a

copy? I sure would like to file a copy of that away for future use. I think several guys here also had MAF sensor problems which were either weren't replaced under recall or they bought a part themselves for which they might be paid back by Audi. Thanks.

Default Its last and I believe only one recall on 1999/2001 "fuel sender unit cover and seal"...

Why they replaced MAF sensor in addition, I don't know. I refused to do this repair two months ago ($750) and for a wile shopped around for sensor ($400 cheapest I found), and because I'm too slow, I got it for free now. I hope they are not going to send me bill later

Default I'm confused. Did they replace the MAF when you had the LT recall

(fuel sending unit cover and gasket) done, or under another recall. Would MAF replacement apply to 2001? Thanks.
