Hi magnet. Thanks for you're reply. Intially the car would crank but not turn over. The cranking became a slower more of a lethargic crank. They have fitted a new starter motor now and the car does start and turn over. Its just the module issue i have to try and solve. I do have the diagnostic report with the code and description.

What Model year - I’ve been having a nightmare looking through used S6 savants trying to find full options and they all have FBSW but say ‘adaptive cruise control’ which i keep thinking they have it wrong. Assuming the newer models now have it with?

David. Zooming your pictures shows the meter to be set to the 0-20 amp scale, so the readings refer to amps not milliamps. That information confirms there is a significant power drain and explains the battery going flat overnight. Previous similar problems on this forum show that pulling fuses has not helped in diagnosing the fault, so I suggest you get the car to an electrician who will be able to test individual circuits. Before doing that please confirm you have not fitted any auxilliary equipment such as a dash cam or sat nav etc. that is connected to a permanent live supply, i.e. a supply that is not switched off by the ignition key.

A6 c8 quattro slow start from the spot issue or not?
Optimus replied to Mike2020 40 tdi quattro's topic in Audi A6 (C8) Forum
Are you talking about two different models here? The 50TDI is not the same as the 40TDI there has always been a software patch for the 50TDI in fact it was known to be worse until this patch for the auto boxes. The 40TDI is a manual dual clutch with automatic selector. This issue is still very much prevalent and has been no ECU/Drivetrain software updates specifically for hesitation on pull away (least I’m aware of?). -
Cassy. If you want meaningful opinions you need to be much more specific in telling us what parts of the car were damaged and repaired. All you have mentioned so far is the vague "I had a panal beater paint the bumper and fix some damage". As for the water in the boot, that could be window wash water from the wiper motor as Richard pointed out. It was a common problem in that model, and therefore possibly unrelated to the body repairs. Test the rear wash function to be certain.

Start/stop shudder on startup even with mild hybrid
steviewevie posted a topic in Audi A4 (B9) Forum
I own a 2022 A4 tfsi with mild hybrid. Car is incredibly smooth including engine restarts when on the move, but when stationary a restart after a period of engine shutdown is really rough. I thought the mild hybrid was supposed to make auto restarts smooth? -
By which time the engine may be damaged. How does that compare to the cost of a new level sensor?
-
Thank you. I'll monitor it and see if I can make the sound more pronounced. It could be in my head as in London it's rare to get up to 40mph!

£100 does t seem too bad. Can you not base it off the alternative door
-
Somewhat evasive response! Perhaps I shouldn’t comment on the following, but… ‘..submit …for testing …..rule yes or know’ Um, know for no. ‘Doesn’t cost you…..as your our customer…’ Um, your for you are. Anyway…. Why don’t these people simply state ‘ we used Brand x, and we will now be using Brand Y? Regards, Gareth.

Any comment on the above Martin. I know you have seen it.

Friends iPhone charging data upload
cliffcoggin replied to HonBruce2001's topic in Audi A3 (8Y) Forum
Evidently it was a data socket she plugged into, which is what one would expect on modern cars in order to connect the infotainment system to a phone. Better to use a non data socket next time, or find a way in the menu to disable data transfer at the front socket, though would defeat the purpose of buying such a sophisticated system. -
Oil Pan removal - 2.0 TDI CGL multitronic
cliffcoggin replied to kektorlokendo's topic in Audi A6 (C7) Forum
Would raising the engine off its mounts give you enough clearance? It is what I would have done 40 years ago, but I do not know it if it is practical on your car. -
Chances are the headlight is made by Hella. The original OE Audi version will be double that. Even if you're going after-market, then I'd opt for Hella. No point having adaptive headlights if they don't work.

Pleasure, hope you can work something out. That’s a very nice number to have, and of course it’s unique! Kind regards, Gareth.

Considering buying a new A3, what are the weak points.
Magnet replied to mareng's topic in Audi A3 (8Y) Forum
This forum doesn’t have any issue with your user name either, but it does have certain standards in relation to actual names, and my personal view is that by changing it from ‘D’ to ‘&’ is simply an attempt to be clever and to extract the urine - impolite! I’ll refrain from further comments about your posts and wish you, and those you deal with at the dealer, good luck with your purchase. There we are then! -
