I noticed the other day that my MAF requested number is pegged at 850. I did a log many months ago and it was also at 850. I look at some folks screen shots and they show much lower requested numbers. I assume that number is supposed to bump around depending on what I am doing, yes? Why is it pegged at 850? I will probably order a new MAF along with some other parts. No other TDIs nearby to hook my cable to to compare. This guy has some pics that do not look like what I was seeing.

Does the term "Alligator tune" mean anything to you? ;)

Post the log if you want, but it is almost completely certain that it is the tune. It is part of how the EGR delete works.
