    Moisture trap Rs2

    I am trying to find moisture trap in an rs2. Any info is appreciated. I tried searching but could not find any exact information for rs2


    I have a green line coming directly to ecu map sensor in passenger side. another black one is going to aircon.
    Cheers

        Should be very close to the ECU. Probably in a grey foam "case". Two hoses on top. One in, one out, like this UrS6 one.

          I cant see anything similar near the ecu.

          I need a definite location form one of the rs2 owners to be sure if my car has one or not.

            In the meantime while you wait for an RS2 owner to point you to the exact location, you *could* follow the green vacuum/boost hose from the intake manifold "T" towards the ECU. You will find the moisture trap (aka "fuel condenser") along the way. Or at least you should. Who knows if somebody removed yours.

            In another thread, Mcandmar has suggested: "Moisture trap is behind the left hand side kick panel, i.e. remove the side pillar trim below the glovebox."

              I already did.

              Greenline comes from firewall direcly to the ecu.


              I found another greenline, but it goes inside the chassis, so I cannot check where it is going.

                  This is a left hand drive car so the trap is behind the driver side kickpanel. First remove the bonnet release handle and then pull off the kickpanel...

                      When/If you do, would you mind taking a picture of how it is mounted. I don't have a reference for this and a picture would be a great help.

                        finally found it.

                        For future ref,

                        moisture trap in a LHD RS2 is located in the drivers side kick panel.

                        and here is the pic

                            Yay!! For future reference, I am borrowing your photo for a consolidated moisture trap post (UrS4, UrS6 and RS2/S2).

                            Need a photo of the location in a RHD S2/RS2 though. Folks?

                              I knew it was there ...sorry for the confusion i assumed Audi would have moved it to the other side of the car with everything else.
