Hi guys,
Could anyone please help?
I was driving to the gym the other night and the EPS light came on and i noticed a jolting which was obviously the throttle body so i kept driving with it thinking its not such a big deal as i have had this issue before. As i was driving back i got a sudden jolt and the exhaust light also came on also. when i finally found the time to look at the problem i removed the throttle body and gave it a good clean with carb cleaner and reinstalled it. I ran VAG-COM and tried to clear the error but every time i try the error comes back straight away and also i cannot do a throttle body alignment as it show error where the normal adapt run should be. I have tried cleaning the connectors in case that was it, i have even taken the throttle body to bits looking for anything obvious but still no joy. The car runs ok but i do not have any boost which leaves me driving like any old woman, it takes me around ten minutes to get to 50mph lol. Would anyone have any suggestions as to what the problem could be, the error code is below.
1 Fault Found:
17952 - Angle Sensor 1 for Throttle Actuator (G187): Signal too Large
P1544 - 006 - Short to Plus
Thanks
Steve
