Hi Cliff, you are going to have to get a carbon clean on your Rs4.The valves must be gummed up from all the carbon.There is alot of horror stories about the screws on the flaps.You dont have to replace the intake,just remove the flaps and dividers in the intake. I had the same epc light on my rs4 and it was the sensor that controls the flaps in the intake.Nice vid !!!
Hi denver once you have removed the flaps does it not give a rough idle and don't you then need to remap. This is what I've heard. My RS4 went to the dealers they removed the intake and put it back and it has developed and very very rough idle on cold start and they are struggling to resolve this do you have any advice.
@@cliffoncarsandthings Hi Cliff,If you remove the flaps and dividers you will have a rough idle only on cold start. I keep my foot on the accelerator to clear up the rough idle,slighty above 2000rpm.It does go away very quickly and the car runs fine afterwards. Once the cold starts clear the car runs normal and warm start is also normal. To completely get rid of the rough idle on cold start you will have to get a remap done. I contemplated putting the flaps and dividers back in to get rid of the rough idle on cold start but the potential risk of losing an engine due to screw flaps is not something that i want to experience on an rs4. If your flaps werent removed i would say that maybe they might be stuck open and not moving,this would give you an epc light on the dash.The car also wouldnt rev out to 8000rpm I am still looking for a decent tuner that understands the b7 rs4 to remap mine.I have heard good things about APR though. Good luck with car bud,hope it gets resolved

you dont need to replace the intake manifold. Just needs a carbon clean and deflap the manifold.
