Finally something went wrong...

Hi guys

I got some probs with the car

Error 18625 tiptronic load signal
and abs 18265 with the p1857 error code

plus MAF… wich its the problem ( and solution) for the probs above…( I hope)
Its needs a new maf its seems ( thanks to the super carbonio wai( war air intake))

Anyone who has experience in this car has anything to ad?

this is exactly the problem

thanks for your time.

Regards.

Help me here please… anything to add?
I about to buy the MAF from Jhm…

That can be the code. I would clear the codes then see how long before it comes back. Not 100% sure ots the maf but the transmission gets a load signal from the maf.

Clear codes if it comes right back clear codes and unplug maf and drive for a short while see if any different codes come up. Then it will be more clear

With the MAF disconnected its the same thing… , I just clear all the codes ABS, TRANS( 18625, 1857), ENGINE(maf) etc and the car stalls and die…The maf code once erase it come back right away …Im pretty sure its the maf , I will clean the maf and see again , I just check the cables( from the ecu and out) and everything seems just fine , I will also see in the vcds the channel 30-2 to take a look the fuel trims etc…
Thanks!!

Problem persist , change the Maf for a new one ( car runs rich), cheak the PCV valve and all the vacuum hoses ( all ok)
The maf cables look all good ( I will cheak them with a tester later) , and car stall with rough idle and the esp light comes with the codes in the first post.
No matter how many times I clear out the codes of ABS/ESP and tranny DTC’s, they keep re-appearing again and again.
My understanding is that the ESP light is actually triggered from the engine ECU, the low voltage for the MAF means that there is a leak somewhere?
Will do throttle adaptation and see how its goes
Please any help?
Running out of ideas…
Thanks.

Another question what is this little hose ?? where its attached ?

Is it for the battery? It may be the drain tube for fumes

That could be the battery vent tube like Euro stated. It also might be a vacuum hose that has popped off a fitting or barb. It looks like it has a tapered end, that tells me it’s supposed to attach to something. Hopefully others will chime in.

It is 100% the drain tube

  1. his battery is out in the pic…or relocated

  2. I found a great picture Sakistyle 2010

first picture is annoyingly out of focus.

Thanks for the help!

Found the F&&/&((king prob ;D

Its was a 3mm hole in the hose that goes from the PCV to the" T " its was impossible to see because the hole its was under the hose etc…
Well hope this help someone in the future .
