Re: RS4 B7 EPC and traction control light on...limp mode.

Possibly could have been a failing sensor first time around and has fully gone now?First thoughts were MAF as have had this on other cars before so not too much to worry about. Cheers for the help will get a diagnostic this week and hopefully sorted!
