How low is the compression, I've had some cars that just needed some gas treatment in the fuel tank that help clean the valves. I did an a2 last week that brought the compression up from 50 psi to 90 psi.

HI, 2015 2.0 TDI Technik 150hp 8 speed Had car aboutt 3 weeks, 97,700 on it, when picked up, now just over 98,000 can see ATF was done at 40,000, regular serviceing every year upto 67,,000 on avg only 5-10,000 miles per year, then in 2022 jumps 20,000 miles no more service records or documentation, Trader states with reciept OIL change and fluid top ups & 12 month mot before I pickup (400mile round trip), not sure can trust them. Ive had ATF & Filter changed, got DPF light on so took for motorway spin, but when I use paddle to drop gear it would shift back in normal auto mode D/S depending which I was in within 30secs, would not hold manualy gear. Car drives and shifts without any jerking is nice and smooth dosent appear to slip when changing gears, have noticed when warm there is a slight hesitation when setting off. No Error Codes for transmission . Any ideas

Lyra

Yup, from a trader, and checked battery, its orginal 2015, new on order

Checked battery date and is orginal battery from 2015 (VARTA), will get a new one

Any comments Paolo? Regards, Gareth.

Hello Paul, Battery needs to be replaced. Bought from a trader? Regards, Gareth.

Hello Jake, I would agree with your assumption, but an assumption it must remain until inspected. Regards, Gareth.

Good morning I would be eternally grateful if anybody can help with a very annoying issue I have with the air blowers. When I set the blowers to the dashboard vents, air comes out of the passenger side and middle vents but not the drivers. Instead the air comes through the footwell vent on the drivers side and not the dashboard vent. To make it even more confusing, when I set the blowers to to the footwell it stops coming out of the drivers side and only comes out the passenger side. I assume its some kind of distribution flap motor or something. Does anyone have any idea or can help. Thank you

Hi Steve, Thank you for the reply! By reseting the trans you mean I should go trough the "pedal" method? Which method should I use? Last time it didn't work for me or I just couldn't feel a difference in the trans' behavior. I also have a VCDS so I could use that as well but I'm not sure if it's a great idea for me to do so. Also I guess I might be kind of a bad guy in this as well because in the past few months I've barely driven it on motorways or main roads and it was a combination of city drives and driving to neighboring cities that are 15mins from me. When the MTF/ATF oil changed was done they redone the adaptation and the car was a dream back then. Thanks!

Car is 2015, Ive only had a few weeks so guess battery could be orginal

Thanks for the reply, Audi technical recently resolved this for me, not sure what they did as they did not give me anything apart from ‘Our technical support team have made an adjustment’ I then connected to the car again and the apps were then available to purchase again. Thanks for the suggestion and I did try a second device but with the same error.

Try LLL parts You can get the inserts on eBay too. For the other readers, they are held in at the back with a small plastic clip and if you use a trolley jack and don’t line it up correctly the insert will pull out and damage the clip. Then they wobble and fall out.

It would help to know the mileage on the vehicle mate. The pads should do about 70k miles. Discs twice that.

Have you tried using a second device?

So much for the promises of updates that might help others in the same position as Wayne.

Personally I would change them. The old oil will give you a chance to detect metal particles, while if it is clean you will have only lost the cost of the oil. Nobody ever had a breakdown as a result of changing oil too often.

I’ll bear that in mind, thank you.

Hi I would from these figures assume the battery is well on its way anything below 85% SOC and with availability of 25AH is definitely wrong, how old is the battery? Steve.

Hi Folks, I have a 2019 Audi A4 B9 with the following NMI software: MHS2_ER_AU_P2035 0235 Navigation database V03959802LD 0038 ECE 2019 Media driver DEV_MCM_AU_ER_G21_045P… Could someone tell me if there is a later update for my vehicle? Not too worried about the maps as I use Google Maps. If so, where is the best place to get the update from? Audi dealer? NMIUPDATES.COM? Would appreciate any advice in this area. Thank you for your help. Kind regards Paddy UK

Loss of stop/start and radio presets are typical of a dying battery. Get it tested on deep discharge equipment, and if a new battery is needed get it coded to the car.

Hi all, Hope everyone is well.. i have had a problem over the past week with my a3 2.0 tdi sportback. To cut a long story short, drove out to bath for an appointment, had the appointment and got back into the car to notice it wouldnt start first time. After several attempts and long cranks it started but seemed to be running lumpy on idle. Any suggestions please to what this could be?? Mileage is 94000. Many thanks.

Hi I just changed battery on my a4. I have put in a bosch battery without BEM Code. I programmed it with mucar tester, where I just changed the 3 last numbers. When i try to change the clock in the dash, a lot of fault coming i the dash, when the computer have shown all the failures, they Are gone, and Will first Come back when i push the SET button Again.... It comes with a faulure l2 4/4 at the trip spot. See picture I have tried to remove the minus for 10 minutter, and delete the failures with odb. But the failure keeps coming...... What to do?
