  1. Past hour
  2. AlexR - unfortunately it's nothing to do with a recall and never will be safety related, despite cars stopping in live lanes etc. Glad your dealer and Audi played ball. There are lots of people who haven't been that lucky. Audi have been in damage limitation mode.
  3. I noticed something. The ingnito key is sending unregular voltage to the relay. When i feed the relay with full voltage during ignition the engine starts without cranking.
  4. Hello, Time to introduce myself. I’ve been an Audi owner for the last 10 years, a couple of A1s but mostly A3 Sportbacks. I’ve just traded in my 2020 A3 Sportback S-Line Black Edition 35 Tdi manual transmission for an ex-demo 2024 Audi A3 Sportback Black Edition 35 TDI 150 PS S tronic in Daytona grey, pearl effect and including the Technology Pack. First registered 27th November 2024 and I picked it up on 23rd April this year. Picture to follow. John
  5. Thanks Allan, Wondering if 8mm ID fuel hose might do - make sure it's S.A.E J30 R9 ( the R9 higher pressure rating is important ). I understand the well respected Gates now do a braided version, so well worth searching that out. Please let us know how you get on. Regards, Gareth.
  6. Today

  8. Battery is definitely registered correctly and no fault codes yet I still get a beep after a variable time when the clock goes off and doesn't come back on. I don't know if it's an undocumented feature or a fault. Everything else seems to work OK.
  9. A few years ago the car kept telling me the coolant level was low, when it was perfectly OK. I managed to remove the connector on the sensor, cleaned the pins, and all was then OK. Until this week when it started happening again. Trouble is, I cannot remember how to get this connector off. It has a tag on the side that looks maybe like it's a clip preventing the connector pulling off, but no luck. Can someone please tell me what the trick is to pull this connector off?
  10. Hello Pauline, When you say ‘Audi garage have been good…’ would I be correct in thinking the car has been serviced/ repaired by an Audi main dealer during your ownership? If so, you would have been paying far over the odds, to maintain this now 8 year old vehicle, and its long overdue to find either a trusted local independent, or local garage to maintain it from here on in. What mileage has it now covered, and what is your typical annual mileage? Regards, Gareth.

  13. Hi as my inlet flaps need a rebuild I want to do the PRO BOOST ecu map instead, Before I take my ecu out and post it off to germany to get it mapped I was wondering if anyone out there has one lying around thats already been done and would like to pass it on, Let me know asap please.
  14. You're welcome 🙂
  15. Hi everyone, I do not have a specific budget, but am just starting down this road. I have looked at prices on Autotrader, EBay and on here to get some ideas. I would guess £3k to £5k but let’s see what is out there please.
  16. Hi, my mmi is playing up, did the one you order work as plug and play? Just trying to figure out my options, mark
  17. It's a common fault in many Audi models.
  18. Hi Pipe I think is about 38mm. Have found this on ebay 296994527233 The seller does'nt know what its made from and not interested in finding out (strange man) For £40 one would think metal of some sort as the plastic ones are about a tenner
  19. It is getting increasingly difficult to help you Gerry. Any reason why you can’t post a copy of what you have?
  20. Hi Bob, did you manage to sell your car? If not, can you confirm which engine it is and any known faults/issues. thanks richard
  21. Thanks Doug, I have emailed the letter directly to Audi UK, but as you went through your local dealer and they honoured it I think i'll also send them one for good measure. Thanks
  22. Thanks Cliff, There are a lot of factors to consider. There are pros too. I'll do some more research.
  23. This thread should help:
  24. So, I took the car out for an eight or nine-mile trip today - to get some breakfast... ...which was very pleasant. On the way home, in addition to the DPF light (which had been on from the get-go), I got the flashing glow-plug light, shortly followed by the check engine light. The triumvirate of misery... ☹️ When I got home, I plugged Carly in, and after 20 minutes or so, got the following result: The Smart Mechanic says: ...and goes on to say... So, it doesn't tell me much more than the light on the dash. My DPF is clogged and isn't re-genning as it should. No clue as to why... 🤔 It mentions a control unit - anyone know what/where this is please? Thanks, Mike 😎
  25. Once again I can only hear broken audio so all I can suggest is to take the car back for diagnosis.
  26. Glad you had it done and it's made the car nicer. Well done for getting the gearbox remapped too as this often gets overlooked.
  27. Sorry to hear that
