    Nice timing. Mine has been on for ages and I refuse to pay someone to check it! Thanks!

      It's bad to drive with epc on if the problem is the fuel /ignition system. Might consume more fuel in limp-home-mode.
      EPC could be also because of other reasons and those may be easier to delay.

    Thank you will try this and look at the throttle body closely. In the past I replaced an ignition coil after OBD2 error msg pointed to cylinder 4 which also worked.

    Hello dear, my car lights EPC after i start driving if i press on fuel on the level 1-2-3 gear in the morning, but it does not get crazy with the RPM it only make the car heavier, then when i switch off and switch on its gone and never get back if the the car temperature is on its normal, so should i do what you did here?

    • @IONHowTo
      @IONHowTo  8 місяців тому +1

      Your mechanic might be right but you could try this in your car too.
      The steps I do should work for your car too.
      The difference will be the throttle body connector.
      Once you find it try the video steps and also to be extra careful, buy some carb spray and with the throttle body open - no air filter, wipe the outside and inside of the throttle body with a lint free cloth or paper towels first if it's really black and dirty inside.
      Then start the car and while idling, spray Carb spray only into the throttle body from about 20 cm and in very short bursts 1/4 second - a quarter of a srcond - as short as you can.
      The engine will be revving up when you spray but if you spray too much it will stall the engine.
      Best is to let your mechanic fix it though.

      It's worth trying but I don't know if you can access the throttle body easily on that car.
      If you still have warranty, take it to them to fix it.

      ​@@heisenberg6442 I'm having exactly the same on my Audi A4 2014. I've taken it to 3 different mechanics, who claim to have experience on these cars, but none have fixed. All they do is charging me for a scan (eventhough I already have a scan report from previous mechanics), and for parts that are not really solving the problem. Lambda/oxygen sensor 1 & 2 replaced, but I'm still having the problem. I genuinely believe that it has something to do with the throttle body, it probably needs cleaning, but those "mechanics" just won't do it because it doesn't show throttle body issue on the scan.
      I guess I'm just gonna have to save up and take it to Audi themselves.
      I'm so frustrated right now. 😠
