Default CEL problem was vacuum hose

I mentioned about a week ago that I had a CEL light and I took it to the dealer and got it back in about an hour. The problem was the vacuum hose was cracked, which might explain my recent poor mileage. The printout said the result was that I was running "Lean" but I don't really know what that means. Anyway, I just wanted to let you guys know what the problem and resolution was. No charge because still under warranty. Might get it chipped this weekend and have my 30k service check scheduled for monday. I'll let you know how it goes.

btw, 02 black a4 1.8tq tip

I was worried about that also, but I asked the guy if I had a different DV on when I brought it back would they still do the maint and he said yes. I guess I should have clarified the point about doing the main AND having it covered. I guess I can live without the extra pull for another half a week.
