same problem with my car..in the process of figuring it out

i think on mine the problem is a cracked hose from the turbo to the air flow meter...

but we havent fixed it yet so im not sure

but according to what everyone else is saying that might be the problem

makes sense







Turbo to AFM?



S5s have that? Freaky I thought S4s were the only ones that had weird stuff

My guess would be definatly a intake leak. A large one in this case like a main hose is cut or broken. a hose about the size of ur thumb. However compression is also a possiblility. You could be running off one rotor but even that u should hear it or feel that. Easiest compression check i know of is take out the spark plugs and just turn it over. You should hear strong gushes of air. As long as u hear something I think its good enough. If you ever scrweed around with the tps or any of the 5 million screws on the throttle body. Im familair with an s5 but s4 should have the same functionality.



See how it works.
