FishWick 21 Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 The carbon tracks inside the throttle position sensor could be worn if the revs are sporadic, otherwise cable as mentioned already. The 2.9 cable quadrant is different to the 2.8 one, so you need to make sure the cable is set correctly with enough free slack.If you look at the TPS in VAG-COM's measuring blocks with the igntion on, the throttle angle should increase smoothly. If it jumps up in blocks, it's worn out. Also make sure you've got 90 degrees at full throttle and <14 at rest. Link to post Share on other sites
