Before I tell you about the car you must know that the car is located in Cork, Ireland. (Only 5 minutes from Cork airport :wink: ) Details below: 2003 Audi RS6 in Ebony Black with black leather and silver piping. 98,852 miles (this will do up as I use the car evey day) Taxed until August '13 NCT unt...

Just to let ye know, UNIT20 sorted the car. It was a faulty ECU. When it got hot it started to send the wrong signal to the fuel pump control module(I think).
Thanks UNIT20.

Ya, its the external pump. Hopefully I'll have the car fixed in a week or so, its gone to Unit20.

New injector installed this evening, car started fine but, when I turned she off I could hear a noise coming from the rear. The intank fuel pump was making a "dum-dum-dum" noise, not very fast. So I tried to start the car again but she struggled to start, a good 20 seconds of turning the engine over...

There was hydraulic lock, but the engine only turned about half a rev before it stopped and it didn't fire. Had to remove the spark plug to clear the cylinder.

Did some investigation last night. Airbox was definitely not on properly, I've reseated it so I see what happens, its so easy to get this wrong.
Also injector no. 8 was struct open, it flooded cyclinder no.8, so a new injector is on its was. Hopefully that'll be it.
I'll keep ye posted.

Thanks.

Just out of interest, why does the car run OK with one of the MAFs plugged out? This one is confusing me.

Ya, logs were done while driving, I don't like to push her when shes acting up as she does. I'll try and get the MAFs to seat properly to illiminate them and do a few more logs.

I'll do a bit more testing at the weekend.

I would say if it runs properly with them unplugged then it's the MAF sensors, you could log them to see, reason I would imagine the car runs fine when codes are cleared is your probably clearing the learned fuel tables that the faulty MAF's have created or possibly a leak around the seals where th...

The C5 RS6 coil pack are pretty good, not to many problems.

I hope not!!

Hi, I been having a problem with my car. Basically the car won't idle properly, it's like its misfiring at idle and its even worse when moving. When moving from standstill with a small amount of trottle she hesitates/misfires, but when at constant speed everything is fine but when I give her a littl...

Hi, I'm having trouble with my car and I think one or 2 lamba's are gone. As a test, is it OK to plug the rear lamda's into the front lamda connectors? And run the car with only 2 lamba's connected. I have my precats gutted so I get the related error anyway. I am currently running the car with all 4...
