    Unfortunately this was a good thread with data on a good fix but now with piles of drama. I really don't understand what the argument is, ok, so a car drifts +-3%. So what? If what is being said that this means there is some part about to break, are you supposed to replace everything until the fuel trim stops drifting? Is this like Minority Report where a ball will drop and some part will be identified as a future offender and Tom Cruise will swoop in and replace my throttle body?

    US and Canada Use RS4 injectors

    Anywhere else in the world S3 injectors.

    Funny how that works with the injector choices.......just don't try to get a Euro file flashed to your US car and be able to run S3 injectors. No way in hell they will let you....tried for 6 months before actually going K04 and settling for the RS4"Garden-hose injectors".

    Should have just got the hook-up with GolfRS and bought and ECM already flashed for the S3 Euro file from overseas and adapted it to my car.....lol. Too much trouble though, so I'll just keep my TDI badge on the back of my GLI that blows black smoke like a diesel under boost. It is fun to have people pull up beside me at a light after doing a nice pull and blowing black smoke all over them as I pull away and have them say "Damn that diesel is fast!!" lol
    -J. Hines

    On the plus side, my compression is still 180-190 across the board at 160K miles after 45K miles on the RS4s. So they aren't washing down my walls too terribly bad although I do still get that fuel-saturated oil smell....guess that's a normal operating FSI though. Seems that way

    When the software was developed S3 injectors had to be imported to the US and Canada but were over the counter in the rest of the world.

    RS4 injectors you could walk into any Audi dealer and buy.

    By the time the TT-S was in the US and injectors were more easily obtained we had too many customers rolling around with RS4 injectors on k04 applications to deal with having two possible injector files out there. We are not talking about green tops vs 550s on a 1.8t you can see this is a few hours labor just to check.

    Rs4 injectors work just fine and are not related to any issues anyone has other then slightly more smoke.

    At this point we receive more calls thanking us for not making people buy a second set of injectors when going to a GT30 from a k04 then calls about why do we use Rs4 injectors on a KO4.

    In that situation we would only have the RS4 injector files built since I believe the 06 A3 Us code is specific only to the US. Generally in cases like this in the past the car was coming back to the US so we used the RS4 injector files even when flashed outside the US. You would probably need to speak to your local Revo dealer and have them contact our head office in the UK.

    Thank's again!
    Speak with local dealer and he sed to use S3 inj...Maybe the difference is in gasoline type not for which country is made the car.

    You MUST have your dealer contact our head office. He is basing this off the specs of the files he has or has sold for local cars. There are no files for those injectors built for your ecu. Please do not purchase any hardware until you have confirmed which they want you to run. Software does not exist for those injectors and your ecu ID if it is a US car.

    That's wierd......I run the BSH Race VTA kit and have my PCV port on the back of the valve cover capped off and I blow smoke, but it's black fuel from injectors. I burn a little less than a quart of oil every 5K miles, which I've done a for a long time now. My catch can fills up once every oil change during the Summer and 2-3 times per oil change in the winter. Mostly with moisture/fuel mixture with just the slightest frosting of oil vapor on the top.

    Weird how the catchcan caused that though. How long did you have it installed before it started acting up? Or was it instant?

    It was instant :/ but my oem pcv b4 the catch can was messed up too... now what is that you capped off? Maybe a pic? by me not doing this would it hhave caused my car to smoke? (Now. When I say smoke I mean a lot! I would be embarrased @ stop light beacause my car would start creating clouds!) On hard excelleration yes it still smokes

    I think they have a car scheduled in soon out of our UK office for testing with S3 injectors that they then were going to slap RS4 injectors in to do some updates on idle, cold start etc since they use those over there for the GT30 cars as well. From there we'll probably do some updates to the US files.

    Can you provide any more of a specific ETA for the revised file to reach stateside? I for one am anxiously awaiting it.

    Hey guys, was reading this thread and had a few questions. Im going K04 this winter and plan on keeping my Revo programming. I read something about throttle body issues. I replaced my factory throttle body with the BSH one, so I shouldnt have to worry about this issue, correct? Also, what else should I do to prepare for or look for before changing over? I recently changed plugs and coil packs. My car is currently at 55K miles, should I change my fuel filter? How do you guys like the K04 file? Thanks.

    I believe you meant to say you have the BSH throttle body pipe. The failure this thread was created to discuss is the throttle the failure body itself. So there is a good chance you'll end up replacing it at some point. As for anything else, I'd recommend a PCV system fix of some sort and just clean the intake valves and runner dividers really well when installing your RS4 injectors. Other than that the flash is awesome and produces a ton of power. It's a good feel, but has left me wanting more....so I'll be going to a GT3071r as soon as my other projects make some progress and my funds come together

    Yea, i meant throttle body pipe. Was planning on cleaning the valves while the manifold was off. Thanks for the heads up. Im running the 42 DD catch can, so Im good there. Yea, the K04 has a lot of power, i cant wait. Thanks. The only bad thing is I have to wait till spring, installing everything while in shop. Thanks.
