Default I think I do.....

I had that on my 2000 A4, I what had happened was a vacuum line had come lose from me washing the engine.

look to the back of the valve cover, there is a small cylinder with vacuum hoses plugged into it. I bet one of those came off. You can just pop it back on and the check engine light will go away after a couple of days.

Default Funny, my car is in the shop today for the same code

I asked about it a couple weeks ago when the code first showed up, and Kris Hansen replied that it's part of the emissions system and not critical. This fits my observation that there has been no change in the car's performance since it showed up.

BTW, I have a nice Suzuki Grand Vitara loaner in the meantime. Gag.
