This link might help: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.audi-sport.net/xf/threads/432653/%3famp=1 But looks like it could be an egr being stuck open.

Hi Riflo, What a diamond. Thanks Paul

Does that mean the bean counters have been working at at SKF and Timken? I've not heard of F. A. G.

HI I HAVE A 2018 A4 2.0TDI I HAVE AN ERROR CODE OF P190D COOLENT PUMP FOR CHARGE PRESSURE COOLER . DOES ANYONE KNOW ANYTHING ON THIS PLEASE

I have changed the largely meanless title HELP to something that more accurately represents the problem in order that it can more easily be found by others with a similar problem.

Thanks Nicholas. If any other sufferers of this problem decide to try this fix please report your findings here.

Just one way of you getting the roof down to enjoy the sunshine

They should just be revisions the M being the newest.

Definitely need more details but I'd consider the thermostat especially if the temp gauge is fluctuating or not rising to 90 degrees.

You're most welcome, glad you got sorted 😊

Definitely looks good

After spending a fortune the garage said they cant fix it. Went to another place and straight away found it was issue with egr coolant sensor. Replaced that and back to normal running temp and stays there. No happy i wasted money and weeks with those other morons.

Hi, thanks for the reply. I was thinking sensor too BUT what sensor, located where? I've not been able to find out what sensor is sending the insufficient flow fault message. The EGR valve was a like for like replacement PIERBURG 7.02132.07.0 from Autodoc. I also replaced the solenoid with new off Ebay. I'm told by the geeks at Ross-Tech (VCDS people) that the check engine light can go off by itself after a few driving cycles. However, the latest twist in the saga is that the light came on 14th June, then went off by itself later that week, then came back on yesterday (23rd June) but when I scanned the car, the report said the fault that brought the light on was the one on 14th June, nothing for 23rd June. It would be great if someone could tell me which sensor is reporting the insufficient flow.

You need a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up to find the route cause.

If you've bought this from a dealer in the last 30 days then it's for them to fix free of charge if it's not been sold as described. As you're entitled to a full refund in the first 30 days after sale.

Is it linked to an engine breather I wonder? Do you have any pics?

So glad you got sorted 🙂

Hi I’m a noobi to the forum so forgive me if this query has been asked before. Does the app give notifications when charging is complete? (Other than opening the app) As you know some charge points penalise you if you stay over once the charge has completed £1 / minute! So would be good if this was a feature, I’ve been told it is but has never worked for me the only notifications I get is when charging fails so the config and comms are in place for me to get notified. Thanks 🙏

Range control is the level sensors on the front and rear lower control arms, easily damaged when working on suspension, I snapped mine so 3d printed a new arm from an A6 all-road air suspension sensor. They can also go bad when the abs sensors break.

I have had my A6 now just over 2 weeks, and really impressed with it so far and happy with the purchase. Got a free month with AudiConnect navigation etc, its a shame its £14.99 a month, I think its a bit steep. If it was more like £7.99 I would be more likely to subscribe, as I like using the cars integrated features. My main dilemma and the reason for the post, is what to do with servicing. Audi plan is £36.99 per month for 2 years (you can have one for £35.99 which is 2 services & pollen filter changes, no warranty) 1 x oil service 1 x oil & pollen filter change 2 x mots 2 years road side and warranty How does the above work if its a major service, does the price of the major get reduced with one service knocked off? or just go with an Audi/VW specialist garage I found who seem reasonable. I have 33,500 miles so going to need a Major service at £342 and gear box oil at £258, do these prices below seem fair?
