yes 1-5 not sure what happened on copy / paste thank you.
Recommendations: If you have a P0106 code do the following in the order shown:
1. With the engine running try to remove the oil cap. If held by a very strong vacuum proceed to step 4 and 5. Other wise proceed to step 2.
2. Replace the N80 valve.
3. Clear the fault codes. Realign the throttle. Reset the transmission kickdown. and test. If P0106 returns proceed to step 5.
4. Replace the PCV diaphragm. It's up to you whether to do just the diaphragm or the entire valve cover.
5. Remove the throttle body and MAP sensor from the intake manifold. If fouled with oil clean them. I cleaned the MAP sensor with carb cleaner and low pressure compressed air to dry. Be gentle.
6. Repeat step 3. If P0106 comes back again and you haven't done step 2, do so. If it comes back after that - well - I'm out of ideas.

I find it odd that one post said this model does not have one and another gives info on it. However the code remains. Ever time I erase it it seems to take longer to come back. Maybe it will just go away lol

Nope never found it on car. While testing this last time I could hear what sounds like a exhaust leak and clicking coming from under the cars pass side. Going to get her up in the air a take a look. I have read a exhaust leak could lead to this code too. Seems like this is a catch all code.

There is none on 4.2 (gas) AFAIK. It is the job of the MAF (mass airflow sensor). A MAP would be more a turbo type set up; hopefully you didn't mean non-US TDI 4.2. MAF is inline between airbox and the throttle assembly at back of manifold. Big round tube with a connector on one side.

Yes it is odd, as you first posted "INTAKE PRESSURE SENSOR" and nothing comes up for your model as to having said sensor for the running of the engine as in IPS, BUT when searching certain Audi dealer site by part number alone it comes up as part of the braking system, and as your scanner dose not readout as Ross-Tech's does, its confusing and hard to guess as to the actual part in question.
Did you ever locate this sensor on the vehicle ??
