Default Re: Intermittently working 03 RS6

Ok last night I tested the DV's and they seemed ok, not very old based on what previous owner told me. Took it for a freeway spin just now and it pulled really strong at first, lots of bars with the FDC linked. There are a couple good 2-3 long mile hills where I really let it rip. With minor traffic the 1st time it did great but only short pulls. On the way back, same hill, I was able to get into for sustained throttle and that's when I noticed it was a bit weaker FDC read and eventually the throttle cut, even if I downshifted. I would assume this points to a small boost leak that doesn't like sustained boost!? Nice warm day here today. I'll try again tonight or tomorrow as I am heading on another 100 mile work trip. Thanks Richard.
