1. So one day after i picked her up i had a guy i know from previous remaps come round and get the DPF issue looked at and a tidy Quantum Remap put on the car to boost what it currently stands at...

First The Guys had to drop the Subframe down to get to the DPF ...

Standard for me there was one bolt that wouldnt come off no matter what, so it all went back on and we did a clean though instead as there was no Ash build up and only 50% block so worked perfectly.

Turns out it needed a Boost Sensor so also purchased that and fitted ( No Pics ) 
 
New Issue
 
So now we have the DPF Clear and the new Boost sensor the car is popping up with a new fault code: 
 
"B" Rocker Arm Actuator Control Circuit Low 
 
Code : P2653 
 
This is the next task, she drives fine and pulls well but this has the coil and Engine management light up so waiting to head to AUDI to get their kit on it and see. 
 
Has anyone had this issue before? If so would love some advice. 
 
In Total great weekend, new car and shes now Mapped to 205bhp and 400lb Torque Clutch is slipping when you boot it in 4th, 5th and 6th so going to take it easy because of the torque. 
 
Thanks for reading and will keep updates coming as i go.

HI Elliot, welcome :smile:

Sounds like you have a few issues there but at least you picked up a bargain so all is good!

Are you planning on changing out the clutch to deal with the slippage?

Hi Mate 

Yes already looking at a Stage 1 clutch, will be helpful when i have a new bigger turbo, intercooler and breathing sorted on it. Doubt it will deal with 550-600lb of Torque haa 

I'm sure that will be a bit of a beast when it's done. You should start a build thread to keep a track of your progress!
