2018 RS4 avant B9 - exhaust valves

Post by shields717 » Sun May 18, 2025 2:09 pm

Interested to hear if it’s normal for a 2018 RS4 B9 to only open driver side valve in dynamic or individual (atleast when the car is in park or neutral in driveway).

Trying to determine if i have a bad actuator on the left.

Seeing mixed things on forum feedback looking into the issue.

Any help from B9 RS4 owner would be great!

Thanks
Peter

Most likely the soot/carbon build up has stopped the flap from moving. If you poke the flap on either the top or bottom, you should see that one side moves freely, the other doesn't
