After spending a fortune the garage said they cant fix it. Went to another place and straight away found it was issue with egr coolant sensor. Replaced that and back to normal running temp and stays there. No happy i wasted money and weeks with those other morons.

Well done.

Right guys, I sent all 6 injectors off to be tested, low and behold, injector 3 has zero flow on idle. Got it rebuild, fitted it this evening, and I've got a smooth idle! Took it for a drive, no fault codes and no lights. Low rail pressure seems to have disappeared now too. Just want to say a massive thank you to everyone that gave advise. I can finally get back to work now 😂! Cheers once again!

No it’s the s3 with the issues. Great colour and looks well for a 2017.

The all important consideration is the ‘rolling diameter’. You don’t tell us the tyre sizes of your current 17 inch wheels. Please let us have that information so we can offer you best advice. Regards, Gareth.

John. Your problem is nothing to do with Borat's so I have split it away to a topic of its own. If you want help with your problem you need to give a great deal more detail.

Is this the new one? Looks lovely

My engine takes ages to get up to temperature

Hi, thanks for the reply. I was thinking sensor too BUT what sensor, located where? I've not been able to find out what sensor is sending the insufficient flow fault message. The EGR valve was a like for like replacement PIERBURG 7.02132.07.0 from Autodoc. I also replaced the solenoid with new off Ebay. I'm told by the geeks at Ross-Tech (VCDS people) that the check engine light can go off by itself after a few driving cycles. However, the latest twist in the saga is that the light came on 14th June, then went off by itself later that week, then came back on yesterday (23rd June) but when I scanned the car, the report said the fault that brought the light on was the one on 14th June, nothing for 23rd June. It would be great if someone could tell me which sensor is reporting the insufficient flow.

You need a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up to find the route cause.

That's odd it's not fixed the issue. After all that work my guess would be a sensor. You might need a more advanced diagnosis from Audi or similar. Was the egr replaced with an aftermarket one or genuine Audi? Is there a chance this or the solenoid could be faulty?

Thanks for keeping us updated

If you've bought this from a dealer in the last 30 days then it's for them to fix free of charge if it's not been sold as described. As you're entitled to a full refund in the first 30 days after sale. -
Is it linked to an engine breather I wonder? Do you have any pics?
-
Yep they should fit. Best way of checking if you're in a position to is trial fit one before you buy them.

So glad you got sorted 🙂

A3 8P 2011 2.0TDI - Problem with aircon/heating unit
Steve Q replied to Morto's topic in Audi A3 (8P) Forum
I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up -
You'll need to go into Audi or type your reg on a parts store online to find the correct part number. As it'll depend if it's Bose, or standard Audi one etc. If you've just bought it from a dealer in the last 30 days then it's their responsibility to fix it free of charge as you're entitled to a full refund in the first 30 days after sale

That looks to be useful company to know about for anybody in North London, Leicester, or Lamia (Greece).

I have just downloaded via the SD drive in my car a software 'patch' created by https://www.vagcarcoding.com This solved the software fault. DAB now fully operational.

Hi I’m a noobi to the forum so forgive me if this query has been asked before. Does the app give notifications when charging is complete? (Other than opening the app) As you know some charge points penalise you if you stay over once the charge has completed £1 / minute! So would be good if this was a feature, I’ve been told it is but has never worked for me the only notifications I get is when charging fails so the config and comms are in place for me to get notified. Thanks 🙏

I have purchased 2008 Audi a6 c6 avant with no sound at all. MMI works, navi works, radio list frequencies however I cannot here anything. I have opened the left compartment at the back and the amplifier is missing, the optical loop is bypassed with a connector. Where can I find a correct amp part number for my car?
