Video tutorial

The error mentioned in the video, P2015 on the Audi A4 B8 (and generally on VAG 2.0 engines), indicates an "implausible" signal from the intake manifold position sensor. The problem is almost always a worn mechanical stop.

Inside the throttle body, the lever actuated by the motor has a plastic end stop that is subject to wear. When the motor returns to the zero position, the lever goes beyond the allowed limit, the ECU detects this abnormal position, and the check engine light turns on. The solution is to install an aluminum bracket, which provides a new physical end stop.

Locate the actuator motor on the intake manifold and position the metal bracket over the motor's attachment point. This way, the P2015 error can be reset using an OBD2 tool.

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
