P1545 and p1579 - engine cuts out and hunts for revs on idle
Clarkj93:
Bought a throttle body from a TT with a BWA engine for 40 quid as well as a new gasket for 24 quid, it's the revision Q from Continental which I believe is the latest and greatest revision, mine was a J from VDO. Its had a decent amount of run time now and no issues so looks like we are all clear for now :happy2:

Blinkin eck, the gasket is expensive but good news mate :happy2:
AG is the latest throttle body. All TFSI/TSI use the same one, MK5 right up to MK7.5 R :happy2: I've got one from a 2019 R waiting to go on as part of my "Why is it so god dang slow off boost" investigation :grin:
Clarkj93:
Ah had no idea. Let me know if it's any improvement then!
pudding:
I only found that out myself when shopping for one :grin: I find ECS tuning's site is great for getting part numbers etc and they list all compatible vehicles so that you can search for , say a Skoda version, on ebay, which is usually way cheaper :happy2:
Will do. I'm not expecting an improvement :grin: I think my actual issue is bad injectors but I'm working through the cheap/easy stuff first :grin:
