Last mechanic did not correctly install the sensor. I found it under the intercooler. I had to drop the aero pan under the engine, fish the sensor...

Mine was much more accurate until about 3 months ago. I'm still looking for the sensor, wires, bracket...anything. I looked at lots of front end tear...

Bolt - Audi (01L-301-127)

I don't have the numbers for those, sorry. Might try ECS Tuning and see if they list it.

Thanks much GreggPDX. Any chance you / anyone has the part number handy for the flexplate bolts? My google-fu is failing me.
