Hello everyone, I have a problem with my Audi A5. After cleaning the throttle body, I forgot to tighten the collar on the sleeve, which caused the engine to stop after 4 km. I corrected the mistake by replacing the sleeve and tightening the collar, but now the car won't start. What's more, I already had an engine fault linked to the air flow meter and PAP lights that came on briefly. Does anyone have any advice or ideas on what could be causing this starting problem? Thanks in advance for your help!

Double-check the connections around the throttle body and air intake system to ensure everything is properly secured and there are no air leaks. An air leak can cause starting issues and trigger fault codes. If everything seems fine, consider checking the air flow meter for any damage or debris. Let me know how it goes or if you have any further questions!
