MAF clicking noise
I believe the item you are pointing to is the N80 purge valve for the charcoal canister for fuel vapor recovery. It should make a clicking noise.
If your MAF is clicking then take it out and clean it or replace it. Not sure if it should throw a code.
Here's a link on cleaning. http://www.audiforums.com/forum/audi...leaning-45302/

So I have the airbag light on. I heard its the connection. Do I just cut them and tape them or heatshrink in the tube thing. I know you have to have vag-com to clear it but does auto zone do that lol?

Autozone can clear a code but some will tell you they are prohibited by federal or state law. I call BS on that. As an alternative you can buy a code reader that has erasing capabilities.
Save up for VAG_COM from Ross and you'll be forever happy.

Thanks Bob you have been the greatest help. I shall get those airbag wires done. Soon but its snowing so I can't go out yet lol. Buts its the ones underneath the seat right?

Someone is guessing. Which connection? There are many. Might be ignitters, might be crash sensors, etc. Might as well track down a VAG-COM. It will tell you what's throwing the air bag code. They after you fix that, you'll need VAG-COM to turn it back off.

Well I've looked up other post and many say its the clip underneath the seat. I would say the color of the clip is yellow and purple. I heard to clean them but I tried to in Clio them and it didn't work so. Someone said to use the crimp aka duraseals but I would rather heat shrink them.

bought elm327 bluetooth obd2 car thing. So i use my android phone and the torque app. i saw a some faults like o2 sensors so i imagen those need to get replaced. Main reason why i got it was to clear the damn airbag light and the ****ing three god damn beeps i hear, and it didnt do much. anyone reccomend a good android app? cant afford ross techs vag com or its free one because they dont support bluetooth. (dont have a laptop or netbook, big gaming desktop on the third floor >_<)
