Dear Bastien,
No problem. i am more lazy as my car is parked for a month and battery has gone down and i chk each step once a week of course on weekends only. Anyway i chkd Throttle valve switch and as u mentioned i ve attached it back. I cleaned N-71 also with air pressure using WD40.Now i want to disconect G28 and want to chk it without removing. Where this connector is located exactly?should i go through engine bay or from below?Thanks.
U r gr8 as u don't understand ppl problem in english and still try to solve after getting translated. i am also trying this on audifans.com but don't know how to post pictures there. I ll give u a hint on translations which i use to translate german to english.go to google translate and after copying the text from any website u can get it translated in german or any other language.
Regards
Munir

Hi,
I think it's actually the main reason why you get to little replies for your problem - people want to help, many speak English but hardly any know all the English terms. I have to use a dictionary as well to find out the terms when required and that takes a lot more time than answering in German.
Regarding the G28 (engine speed flywheel sensor, right?): The connector is somewhere between the fire wall, the sensor itself is located in the bell housing. It is a real struggle to change it if you do it the first time.

Is this (G28 connector) on the bracket that is bolted to the back of the engine below the throttle cable routing. the bracket carries the plugs/sockets for the 2 sensors, and the lambda connection?
Bastian.
I'm interested in what you are saying about the throttle position switch. My car has a little difficulty idling for a few seconds after starting from warm. Because I used the original air temp sensor, I had to disturb those devices at the front of the induction system. So, maybe I have upset the position.
If anyone has a diagram showing the engine bay, with labels to the individual components, I'd be very interested.

Check "Anhang"
there you will find G28
but it's better to read out the faultcodes...

Hi,
I did this on my car this weekend.
Background: engine stopped while cruising at low speed.
It was possible to restart the engine after a while (cooled).
This is typical behavior when the G28 sensor goes bad.
You can find the exchange info here: http://www.audiv8.com/german/faq/faq_show.php?id=201
The connectors are somebit hard to reach.
They are located directly under the vacuum clock for the auto cruise (under the left hand distributor)
It is often a good idea to change the other sensor as well.

Now i removed left distributor cap to check the connectors for G$4 and G28.The resistance on G28 point 1 & 2 was .99 Kohm and no connectivity at 2 & 3 and 1& 3.similarly G4 was .96 Kohm at same points.so according to manual both are ok then i checked inside of the distributor cap and to my surprise the two points for cylinder have gone.I changed the same distributor 3 years back with Audi workshop . Surprisingly there is exactly same type of damage.chk attachment.I m planning to change the cap and hopefully the problem ll be soved.

"Anhang" don't work
"Anhang". Sorry i could not understand. can u explain more.Thanks.
watch attachment
What would be reason of same wear while i changed the whole distributor with cap in 2007.The old cap (before 2007) and the cap (in 2010) after 3 years in attachment.
can u start engine without one distributor?
Happy new Year!
do you mean why the is contact is on one side a pin and
on the other side "inside the housing"?
