Damn - the problem is back again, less than a year after fitting a new throttle position sensor.
Exactly the same symptoms and, yet again, towards the end of a 30 mile drive in heavy rain.
But then after standing at work, no problems on the way home or the next day.
I'm more convinced it's a leak and my local Audi indy says there is a leak, but on the n/s, but that all the drains are clear - Botang's hole perhaps?
So, if it is Botang's hole leaking, could water find the throttle position sensor, or associated electrics?
It's going back in a week or so for a more thorough investigation (so pray for a dry spell as I need the car for a couple of key trips!), so I'll update this when I know more.
