    S6avant 100%,S2 coupe always 95%, S2 has always had one problem after another.
    I am convinced that its to do with the lack of space around the engine,and the heat degrading sensor wires ect. Not a problem for the S6.

              Poll

              Well my ABY runs perfectly now for the first time since I own it. I bought it more than 5 years ago and always thought something's not right. MTM chip did not reduce fuel consumption and this problem remained until today. I almost changed everything. Now I think my average consumption will drop below 10l/100km. It was 14+l recently. So that's a reduction of >30% Last things i Changed today are the pop off valve, the valve near the crank housing, water temp sensor and N75 (don't know the name of it).
              And boy does it run now. It really has power now on high revs too.
              There are still things to do though. These cars never fail to leave me something to do. I constantly hear my friends tell me to buy a new car. What for? I never had to call emergency because of a defect. I don't trust today's technic.

                This can be adjusted my friend. I think you can find the instructions on s2central. If not then on meckisforum or if you ask me I can check. I know it's adjustable and I read the instructions somewere in these places.

                    Be interesting to match the names with the 'how much power are you running' poll...

                    (not necessary in public, but might give an indication of any power/reliability drop-off).
