2.0t FSI (IMRC) Intake Flap Motor

We are starting a new segment of short articles that offer quick help tips on some what common issues on the more popular VW and Audi Engines.  This one is the about this intake control motor on the 2.0T FSI engine.

The IMRC motor control flaps inside the intake manifold which control the direction of air depending on the request from the engine.  Most commonly when the IMRC fails the motor will intermittently bind up or get stuck.  This can cause a check engine light with the following fault codes, P2004 (Intake Manifold Flap; Bank 1: Stuck Open) or P2015 (Intake Manifold Flap Position Sensor (Bank 1): Implausible Signal).  Often times this code can be cleared or erased but will likely come back in time.  The only way to replace this would be to replace the intake flap motor on your VW or Audi 2.0T FSI.

This part is mounted on the driver’s side of the intake manifold, and has been updated with a newer version.  When replacing this part you should set the basic settings of this part with a scan tool after the install, to ensure proper operation.  Be sure you are getting the most current version of this part here.

The 2.0T FSI engine (Shown Above) can be found in the following models. 

Audi – A3 – 8P 2006-2008 – 2.0 Turbo FSI
VW – GTI – MK5 2006-2008 – 2.0 Turbo FSI
VW – Jetta – MK5 2005.5-2008 – 2.0 Turbo FSI
