2000 A4 1.8T trouble code
 

The check engine light came on yesterday. Plugged in the code reader and it
gave me "1128". Can anyone advise what is commonly replaced to correct this
problem?

Thanks,

Ken

This is what the Bentley manual has for my '03:

P1128

Bank1, mixture adaption (mult.) system too lean
- Check exhaust system for proper seal
- Check pressure regulation valve of crankshaft housing ventilation
- Test Oxygen Sensor (O2S) before Three Way Catalytic Converter (TWC)
- Test Oxygen Sensor (O2S) after Three Way Catalytic Converter (TWC)
- Check fuel injectors

Thanks, Art. I'm thinking O2 sensor. Probably bite the bullet and go for the upstream one unless someone can advise me otherwise.

I'd bight the bullet and get a manual if you are mechanically inclined. The
O2 sensors can be checked with a multimeter. The Bentley manuals (~$100;
~$70 on ebay) are what Audi use and have all the electronics and VAG-COM
checks, but it's kind of confusing. You can get a Haynes manual for about
$15 for your car (none for mine yet) which will probably have a much clearer
explanation for us DIYs of how to test the sensors.

Re: 2000 A4 1.8T trouble code
 

I get the impression that oxygen sensors are oxygen sensors. That means that
other manuals I have which provide such information likely are similar for
Audi. I'll give that a shot this weekend and see how it plays out.

Thanks again, Art!
