Hi all. I have just bought an s5 that was sold as lumpy on cold start, But once warm its fine. It arrives tomorrow , but have seen many video's from the owner on start up and idle etc once warm. I plan to do a carbon clean on it. and as far as i know its had the plugs done. But i cannot verify this. I have seen a video where its rough on starting, and after 2 - 5 mins its ok. But still slightly spluttery as it hasnt been used in a while. If the carbon clean dosnt solve this issue. What would be any ones next point of action please. The carbon guy will be reading the codes etc tomorrow , may have a better idea then. But seeing as it gets better once warm, I wondered if anyone might know what that might points to or suggest. Many thanks in advance. Mark

Still shows as two broken play symbols on mine so just did two screen shots to show what it looked like.

If you are convinced the guarantee is for two years then it is legal advice you need, not technical. Good luck in resolving your problem. Do let us know the outcome.

I assume the large wheels will have very low profile tyres, an arrangement that is known to produce a much harsher ride than normal, so it's reasonable to believe that is what has knocked out springs and bearings. Not sure about the drive shafts.

Did you have the new battery coded to the car? It won't work properly until you do. -

2.0 TDI metallic ticking noise from bottom of engine
Steve Q replied to jc07030's topic in Audi A3 (8V) Forum
I'd get this into a garage asap. Let's hope it's a chain and not the crankshaft etc. -

I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up or get an auto electrician to take a look.

New member Doncaster area looking for repairs/ service

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 -
Still knocking, has been to three garages now, no one seems able to diagnose the issue just want to start swapping out parts which I'm not keen to do as it gets pricey, battery was diagnosed as faulty (replaced and wasn't the original), TPMS sensors seem to have a mind of their own.....TBH is feeling a bit flaky as a vehicle, had multiple BMWs before this and never suffered this many faults this side of 100K

Pleasure Glyn. We look forward to hearing of the outcome.

Non-manual choke? If so, could be the cold start/ coolant temperature sender which is at fault. This would be the sender which assesses the coolant temperature and signals the degree of fuel enrichment required. Regards, Gareth.

Hello Alan, If it were mine:- (1) Call in to your nearest main dealer’s Parts Dept. and enquire about the price and availability there. ( are there any electrical connectors very near/within this T piece? by the way?). (2) If they won’t give you the part number - which is quite likely - have a look on LLL Parts website, and you may find it there. (3) Thoroughly search EBay and EBay International to see if you can find one on there. (4) Register your ‘want’ with on-line car breaker link sites. Partsfinder is one of many. Please let us know how you get on. Regards, Gareth.

As a quick update (which may or may not help others!) I ended up cancelling with Audi and reinsuring with them to kick this out another year within their expiry dates (which means I can hopefully also sort issues with my NCD out too!). Adrian Flux were well over £2k, eSure and Audi v similar around £1500. Interestingly the front end for UKI is Churchill and Directline, neither of which will underwrite performance cars!

I’ve got a 2014 Q7 and same happened to me last year in the Lake District, at 10pm on a Sunday night. Problem is, the pulley shouldn’t be rusting away like that, it a low quality part that Audi could easily have put right. My pulley was £350, from a local car parts place, VW were asking £550 at the time (parts - not fitted). If people can get them for £96 from ECP I’d recommend doing it as preventive maintenance as you can’t really drive without it. Shame really - I’d expect parts like that to fail on a Citroen C1 but not a Q7!

Could be a relay, also check continuity of the wiring if you can trace back.

Yes up to the max level then drops down past min but I tend to top it up before the warning light appears.

Hello, I am looking for A3 1.5 TFSI ED 1 or S Line with Bang & Olufsen 2020 onwards. Daytona Grey colour, budget is £20K thank you. -
That the air flow reduces suggests an electronic problem. Best to get the system diagnosed.

Thank you

It certainly is! No matter how old the cars get the bills and parts remain expensive
