Default MIL light & Codes

I was driving home on Saturday night when my check engine light came on. I called a friend with a VAGCOM yesterday who helped me pull the codes (many!) and I have been searching to try to determine the cause(s). I'll pasting the codes below along with the description and some guesses as to what could be causing each code based on my searches - any guidance or insight would be greatly appreciated! There seems to be a common theme as most codes seem to point to Vacuum leak, MAF, O2 or EVAP issues. I'm scheduled to have the coil pack recall performed tomorrow which may be the cause of the random misfires on cyl 6?

------------------------------------

P1602 - Weak battery?

I've gotten a few PM's suggesting that many of these issues can also be the result of a torn TBB.

Thanks in advance for any advice or suggestions.

A TSB was performed to fix the airbag fault (coming from drivers seat after moving the seat) and the hazard relay has hopefully addressed the left turn signal issue.

Looking like most of the codes were easily addressed, but they're still seeing the Gross EVAP leak and the turbo boost sensor issue now. They're going to smoke test it for leaks & I'm still hoping for a cheap & easy fix!

Anyone been in a similar situation an have an idea wat I can expect?

In these situations it sometimes is best to clear/rescan so see what codes come back. Sometimes they come back one at a time instead of assaulting you with a whole list. If you have it at a shop already, a boost leak test would be a great place to start. All these rich conditions sound like they could be related to a boost leak.

Thanks, Chris - appreciate the input.

They did a smoke test this afternoon & I should get a call with the results & diagnosis shortly.

Default My crazy c5

I have the codes 1127 and 1129 on my audi a6 2.7. Can anyone tell me the bottom line is it the o2 sensors in the front or maf sensor. Need real help.

Not the 02 sensors...more likely your MAF...or even the rubber Y-boot on the throttle body, for which Audi issued a TSB years back, for cracks allowing boost leak leading to rich condition and producing exactly those codes.
