That code is not listed in my Autel code scanner book. I got the CEL recently after driving the car no more than once every 7-10 days this winter. :-(

Other similar codes listed in the book are related to the O2 sensor...maybe that's it.

TIA!

...on this site.

Anyone know what it means? I've had a weak battery lately too.<ul><li><a href="http://dtcsearch.planetvag.com/default.aspx">http://dtcsearch.planetvag.com/default.aspx</a</li></ul>

That means you need a new pre-cat O2 sensor

I just got back from a drive.

......realized I could have looked it up in my Bentley manual (paper addition)...duh. :-)

Anyway, I can see the sensor from above, but it doesn't look too easy to access with the strut tower bar in the way. I'll have to see what more info I can find in the FAQ and Bentley....I really should read that thing more often...just haven't had the need.

upper strut brace is easy to remove, there are 8 13mm nuts holding it in place

blueprinTT

...maybe that would even be easier.

JohnLZ7W

that works too, just 2 13mm nuts on that, just be careful with the hose exiting the turbo

debashis

can you explain what you mean by 'being careful'?TIA, john

JohnLZ7W

turbo outlet hose off. It's a PITA to get back on.
