Use your VCDS mate instruments (17) then adaption, enter channel 02 and set it to 00 and save, done. Some of the older A4 used other channels and had to be set individually but 02 should be the go with the A3

My A4 has been bugging me with a glitchy boost fault pretty much since ive owned it ( going into limp so no leaks before we all jump) but more so after upgrading the software. Finished early today so at last had some time to check her out. removed the ECU which has been replaced ive noticed so had a smile there. Anyway keep getting the Lambda implausible signal fault pre cat so its the important one and is for sure messing with my mixtures to the point i thought i was going to p ut a hole in a slug this week, pinging its head off. Not good. So back to driving like miss daisy again till its fixed. Checked with diagram and found wrong 02 sensor is fitted its a start, new sensor Monday and hopefully i can put the lid on it.
Used Vagcom to do a log of a drive in closed loop and watch it all go pear shaped. Tried my Diagun palm pilot just for laughs, it picked it up too.
Update soon with result.
Put it through the hand car wash also and soon showed JASN78s efforts again with his clay bar, came up mint again. .
Getting closer to having it nailed i think

Lambda sensor pre cat fitted. seemed a whole lot better, cant be that easy, yeah it wasnt. Lambda fault gone though pleased to say , i think the real culprit is rearing its head. System lean!!!!! thought so i heard it ping a few times and logged plenty of timing pull, engine has new coils and platinum plugs as a rule. So now going to go for a drive with a fuel pressure gauge on , just to make sure, i suspect the fuel pump ( filter is new) and if that checks good then it calls for the one and only smoke test, ordered a smoke machine so quitley hoping i can diagnose my car with it
