Re: 2003 RS6 engine issues...
I am based in Ireland but it should be the same for you, I went directly to Audi. They are discontinued yet still, Audi can order them and they subsidize - €20 per set. I ordered 3 sets!lewis.philcox wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2024 3:25 pmWhere is everyone in the UK getting their MAF seals from?

Re: 2003 RS6 engine issues...
Don't forget the Ireland is in the EU and Audi Tradition will ship there. They won't ship to the UK. There are third party places like Deutsche Parts (IIRC) that can source for you for a nominal fee. steve2003rs6 can explain more. He uses them.

Re: 2003 RS6 engine issues...
Yes Ben. I use deutscheparts on a regular basis for parts from Germany.
They are based in the UK and have regular orders with Audi Tradition.
Phone them give them the part number and the company who has them. 01531 640800
They give you a price and that’s it. They take out all the faff.
And they are a great bunch to deal with.

The Power is back !!
Inspired by an ancient post by @cullenvb viewtopic.php?t=132415 I disconnected the battery for 30 min. Straight after the boost went up to 2000 mbar (remapped) and boy she pulls now
. I guess the ECU was upset about over-boost at some point and went into a "safe mode". So far Dump Valves and vacuum lines have been replaced, more stuff will happen this weekend including the new N75 so hopefully the boost control will remain OK.
