Default What does this fault code mean?

"00670, 027, Throttle valve positioner sender - G127 implausible signal"

Audi dealer can't seem to erase it.
They say it could be the fault of my Wett chip.
Anyone know more than that?

Thnx in adv.

Default Sounds like a bad throttle body.....

Check the connection at the TB to make sure it's OK, and there isn't any corrosion in there.

The throttle position sensor is built into the TB, so you can't replace just the TPS (like you can on most cars)

If someone in your area has a similar car, you could try plugging your ECU into their car and see what happens.

Default Re: If you got non-dbw...

more then likely your throttle body. If you got aDBW there is a chance it could be a faulty gas pedal.
You can run I believe its like block 81 for an alignment. Does the code trigger again when you reset it?

block 98 is for alignment on non-DBW, block 60 I think for DBW
