You don’t need a tester to inspect the condition of the cables within the flexible harness section Kieran.

RoadX - sounds like Chinese best, and personally I wouldn’t opt for that and another unknown brand on the front axle. What brands and remaining tread do you have on the back ones?

You'll need a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. Could be an issue with the ballast

The hazards switch doesn't seem to be playing up at all i had someone come out and test with a multi meter they proved that the light unit and bulb holder is fine it just isnt getting the power to it he suggested it might be the power moduler but I cant find which one it is
-
To add to Gareth's advice, on older audi models if the hazard switch fails or starts to fail it can cause the I dictators to play up. If that's the case the cure is a new hazard switch

Mine has been fine for some weeks now, I did have issues caused by my dashcam. That may not be relevant to an A3 though as it depends where the radio aerial is located, on a Q3 it is in the rear window glass. On a Q3 the Update Station List option is at the top of the main station listing screen on each waveband, it is NOT on the Memory list screen.
-
Does anyone know what this fault is? thanks

How long have you had the car? Your issue sounds like something completely different to what all experienced. Check you dab antenna, wherever that might be on A3?

My initial thoughts on the noise was that it had something to do with the outer cv joint that was changed as it started within 2 weeks of the job being done , but I have never heard of a bearing or humming noise from a cv joint . It was too much of a coincidence in my mind , but I suppose coincidences do happen after all . Thanks for all yer replies gang , as always ye were very helpful.

I'm going to leave it run for a while as there is no play in any of the wheels and if it is a bearing it will only get louder and will know for sure then, it's going for a service in 3 weeks so it would surly be worse by then if its a bearing. And if its only an tire issue I can live with that until new tyres are called for , by the way the tyre i got was a Roadx brand and thats the only one they had in my size 255/35/ r20 at the time . Don't know what they are like for road noise . Thanks
-
On older tyres, it's possible to get flat spots, but that's not the case here. You definately want to be running with the same brand on an axle.
-
It certainly doesn’t surprise that two different treads on the front would result in varying noises. I personally dislike different brands on the same axle, but can understand your logic in this case. Might be well worth swopping the odd front ones to the back and see if that alters the noise. What brands of tyres do you currently have on the front? Regards, Gareth.
