P1545 and p1579 - engine cuts out and hunts for revs on idle

<< < (2/2)

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:
