As you can see, the area that should be labelled "Thottle Angle" (third from the left; between "Mass Flow" and "Ign. Timing"), is incorrectly labelled "Load" on my VAG-COM screen. Why would this be? Is there a way to correct it?

I'm not sure if there are more incorrect labels or not, but this is the first one I have found.

BTW, I am running VAG-COM Release 504.1 with a KEY-USB cable on a 2000 S4 (B5).

It says: "Label File: None". That means VAG-COM is using a best-guess based on the data type. That type is used for various percentages, most often "load".

What's your ECU's VAG Number? Sounds like we may have goofed on the label files in this distro -- they got a LOT of revisions using the redirection scheme to eliminate duplication and increase coverage.

My ECU is an A-Box (i.e. 8D0...A), I'm not sure of all the numbers in the actual VAG part number, but I can check for you. Or, if you mean something else, just let me know and I'll be sure to post it for you ASAP.

I may be mistaken, but I think this data block was labelled in the previous revisions; I can vividly remember seeing it before in that exact measuring block. I just updated to Release 504.1 last week.

Strange, because I just put that ECU on the test bench and checked with a freshly installed 504.1. It loads 8D0-907-551.LBL and shows "Throttle angle" for Group 003, Field 3.

Please wipe your VAG-COM folder completely (or rename it if there's something in it you want to save), then re-install 504.1 and let me know if that doesn't fix it.

Will do. I'll reinstall now and then check tomorrow morning/afternoon and post my results. Thanks.
