    B8 a4 flex fuel

    Ive been trying to do research on b8 a4 flex fuel. I would like to go e85 and i know the car is capable of handling e85 but I?m trying to figure out if i just need to touch the secondary fuels table i.e (e85 tables) and thats all like how does the car know the ethanol content and how much in it. Just need a couple answers.

    Also I'm coming from tuning mustangs ik theres a option to turn off o2 sensors over there been looking for an option to turn off the one for the cat to replace it with one for a gauge.

    Is your vehicle factory flex fuel?

    the gas cap is green and the fuel door only talks about 91 octane. I've been trying to find flex-fuel kits but seems like everyone goes s3 injectors and hpfp piston upgrade. i also was trying to figure out is there's an settign to disable the secondary o2 sensor.

    Is it the same car you were tuning earlier? The only variety of flex fuel vehicles are 13-16 A4/A5/AR ZF8 2.0T

    If you’re an 09-12 it’s not factory flex, you will need to create a tune specifically for Ethanol levels based on a standalone gauge
