Just to update. I spliced the wiring harness and it did not fix the issue. I replaced the turbo actuator and it fixed the problem. I'm assuming the wiring short damaged the smart actuator. I have a chinese one from amazon in there for now, not sure about longevity, but it's been working for...

Well, I should have listened to Jokila's first response.... Today, I decided to put the car on the ramps and take a look at the turbo actuator wiring. The wire loom is completely gone, and the wires are covered in oil/dirt. I cleaned them with rubbing alcohol and a rag, which revealed several...

The sensors are coming from Amazon. It is possible they are counterfeit. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00F96C59O?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 I will try and get the VCDS today Thanks guys

Perhaps, but my throttle works fine. I will see if the VCDS offers the same values. With my setup I'm reading about 0.4ohms on the MAP wiring, consistent with other working circuits.

I ohmed out the MAP sensors and the MAF sensor. 4 separate MAP sensors, #1 is the original failed sensor, then #2 and #3 are the used replacements I thought were fried, and #4 is brand new, never used. All Bosch sensors from Amazon. All thermistor values were basically the same. Didn't write...

I inspected the wires from the MAP sensor up until they have a straight run under the windshield and they are intact all the way, insulation in good condition. Also removed the back of the harness and a few inches of the cloth tape to inspect there, looks innocent. I then confirmed wires 3 and 4...

Appreciate the reply. According the the Bentley manual, wires 3 and 4 are indeed for the MAP sensor. Searching the forums, it looks like the ECU is feeding 5v to the MAP sensor where mine is receiving 3.6v (sensor disconnected, measuring between pins 3-4). Losing voltage somewhere. Shorting to...

Installed 3rd MAP Sensor today. Sensor immediately failed. Reading 50kpa. New code: P0113, "Intake air temperature sensor 1 circuit high bank 1" Intake air reads about 32C. I can plug the other two sensors in, and they are stuck at their respective values of 19kpa and 40kpa. I haven't...

Car has about 235,000 miles. I bought it about 10 months ago with 220k miles. During maintenance, I found the MAP sensor wiring was improperly routed, and was rubbing against the serpentine belt. The insulation was worn in one area on all 4 wires, exposing bare wire, but the wires were all...

Have trouble aligning my mount after clutch change. New mounts and fasteners. Here’s an excerpt from the Bentley and what mine looks like. Calls for max gap of “C” as .78”, mine is .85ish, not quite parallel, maybe off by .02”. I tried to reduce the “C” gap and that’s as good as I got before I...

I filmed that before I saw your comment on the shift sleeve. I can go back in and show how much play it has if needed.

I was able to break loose the shift tower, get it in neutral and remove it. I got the plastic pin piece out, and another very small metal pin seems to have broken off as well, maybe also apart of the locking assembly? I’ll investigate that later. I was able to shift through all gears, and it...

Made a mistake during removal of my 02J transmission. I thought the transmission was supposed to be in the home position and locked before disconnecting cables and shift lever/counter weight. The Lever/counterweight wouldn't budge off the splined shaft, so I made the dumb decision to pry up on...
