m drivin audi A4 99 model 1.8T quattro it sumtyms lights EPC on the
dashboard suddenly it becomes powerless n doesnt accelerates or when drivin
at high speed it decelerates itself ..help ur brother out
I got a new temp gauge to replace the old one, but it doesn’t have that
long bit that sits in the water, it is flat. Says it was for the car
though, do they have different kinds? It’s blue.
I think its hose from air filter and mine sensor is under it so its not
wide open like yours and i cant reach it with my fingers. BTW i have 98
audi a4 b5 92kw
thanks for the vid. i have a 2000 a4 b5 1.8t, same location and cts color?
will a faulty cts cause trouble starting in warm/hot weather? will
replacing the cts require me to add/top up coolant? thanks again.
I dont know the answer to the first question, but there are only a few
drips of coolant that escape when I take the sensor out. So you shouldnt
have to top off.
not sure but I would think so…you should be able to see it without taking
anything apart…open the hood and look near the back of the engine just
like in the video
cheers, just picked one up. it was a green aftermarket cts. i think my cts
plug is black when i checked my engine bay. can i do this while the engine
is warm or is it better when its cooled down?
Changed sensor but sadly same problem. Temperature stays at 60 C , when car
stopped it temp rises a bit. Shutting engine down and starting again gauge
shows more, but slowly goes down. Now going to change termostat, A TIP:
Open coolant cap to release pressure before you do something.

you removed it before?
nope

what year is your car? are you sure the hose isnt electrical wiring? mine
doesnt have a hose on it, but it has wiring that i unplug in the video.
thanks hahaha
good luck……also check coolant level in the reservoir…i wasnt showing
any temperature increase, then i topped off the reservoir and its working
fine.

Thanks for vid man,, mine is 99.5, I think same location,, green though
not sure sorry!
is the A3 1.8t 1998 temp sensor in the same place as i need to replace mine
many thnx..
Nice save with the retainer.
do i have to disconect battery?
not sure but I would think so…you should be able to see it without taking

it seems you have a different air box than mine….i guess the only thing
you can do is just take the hose off to get to the thermostat
I have a 1993 Audi 100. Do you happen to know if the plug is blue for my
car? Thanks for the vid.

THANK YOU!
np, thanks for watching. yea some are green some are blue, i don’t know
why, maybe the green dye was cheaper haha jk
I’d say better to do when its cold. I never took the cts out when the
engine was warm so I don’t know what happens lol
