The ABSOLUTE BEST fix. Dealer told me I needed to replace the intake manifold and mass air flow sensor for $1400.00 I installed this part and corrected the problem. I still had to clear the error codes with the scanner but absolutely no check engine light has returned. This part saved me a biden stimulus CHK amount of money.

@PaulB58 Год назад

Great video but you don't have to take the whole unit off just take the bottom bolt out start the engine Push the rotor arm upwards gently with a screwdriver it will pop to fully open with the engine running then simply slip the restrictor into place and secure with the bottom bolt remember to keep the engine running to do it this way

@Steve-ym9ql 11 месяцев назад

Can confirm this is how I did it. Had to keep the little bolt for the tab loose to get it to fit right.

Never thought a simple little bracket like that could fix this problem so easily. My CEL came on just a few days ago showing the P2015 code and my OCD can't stand to leave the light on for long so I found your video and ordered the part right away. About 20 minutes and the job was done. Getting the arm back on the nub and trying not to lose the damn spring (which I nearly did!) was a bit tricky but it all came back together. Cleared the light and a test drive later, and the light is off! Thanks!

@DArias Год назад

Glad to hear man! Yes the light is super annoying ahah. After using the bracket 2 years + and no light ever came back on for that code. A dealer will charge an arm and a leg to replace the whole intake manifold when this is a full solution

@triple_five_soul6439 Год назад

Just had my '14 tdi coded yesterday at Autozone and I got the P2015 code as well. Stressed out over what the possible cost of having the entire intake manifold removed or replaced by a mechanic could be, I wasn't going to just hand over that kind of money without trying to figure out the issue and solution myself first. I have not ordered any part yet but since finding this video and especially after hearing you describe how your engine light was coming on and going off for a period before it finally stayed on which was exactly how mine was acting, this has given me a peace of mind that this is the solution to the problem. But let me ask, if anyone who reads this may know the answer to or if what I'm asking is even a logical question: This "bracket" part that is being installed, is it considered a "quick fix" to just eliminate the CEL or is it the actually the complete remedy for the issue as a whole? Meaning, is there a deeper lying problem/issue/crack/leak or is it just as simple as it being that "lever" springing back too far? Hope I'm making any sense.

@jaybay711 8 месяцев назад

No, in Volkswagens and Audis there’s a manufacturing problem with the intake manifold doing this and they started making the intake manifold the new ones to not do this. So there’s not another underlining problem. They’re just a faulty manifold that ends up doing this and this is the fix that they have for it.

@ln5747 2 года назад

Mechanic now tells me only P2015 is coming on and I need a new intake manifold. He says the motor has failed can't get the motor separately to the manifold. Would this solve it? Surely the motor still would not be working?

does this only fix the light... or is this issue not really a issue just something that turns the engine light on?

@DArias 3 года назад

It does fix the light and no it’s not really an issue. In the in mail that black flap arm you see there will move to far back causing the light BUT with the bracket it doesn’t allow the arm on the motor to move that far back and keeps it in the correct position so it won’t cause the light or the intake manifold p2015 anymore

@DArias 3 года назад

That’s unfortunate! Sooo there may be 2 issues persisting to your problem. The most common one is if the spring isn’t seating correctly on the flap of the motor.. sometimes the spring comes out of place causing a code. Another instance would be that it may not be properly tightened all the way down. Now if those 2 things check out to be okay, then you may have an issue with the manifold itself. Possible a lot of gunk and build up causing low efficiency flow

VW sometimes like to treat certain things as “unserviceable”. For example the mk6 has ac compressor problems where the valve in the compressor goes bad. Instead of just changing the valve which is a $50 part and fixing it, Vw makes you buy a whole new compressor and such because they say the valve is unserviceable
