Default I got the letter, but Audi wouldn't replace my MAF when asked.

I think it's failing, they don't, so they won't replace it.

Default Mine's still in warranty and they will not replace. They claim it is not

my MAF, yet I put a VW MAF in and no CEL in 300 miles. The Audi MAF was triggering my CEL anywhere from 45 to 150 miles.

Rich, go to any VW place and get a Jetta MAF. Cost should be around $50. The diameter of the Jetta MAF tube is smaller than that of a TT so you have to remove the MAF itself. Bring it by my house and I will do removal and then the swap for you.

Default I don't know. Search the forum for MAF's and you will

get the VW part #. I got mine from VWparts.com sometime back and it cost me $86. Recently I was at a VW dealer and they told me I could get the MAF for around $50 from them.
