Hi all, i have just bought this car, there is a few issues and wondered if someone could narrow down the problems for me! have never owned an Audi.

Firstly, temperature gauge not moving at all. there is a bit of heat coming out but not full i would say... thermostat? sensor?!

there is quite a bad clunk when letting out clutch too fast...no slipping, ok if i do it gently!

And knocks from front suspension, more so drivers side, but doesn't seem to be any play in wheel, any suggestions?

lastly central locking.. remote doesn't work, changed batteries, it also only locks all doors when using key manually, but will only open driver's door, all the others need to be opened with handles. not the end of the world but a bit of a pain! i can live without the remote but would be handy if they all unlocked by key together!

If anyone could give me any pointers, be truly appreciated, cheers Adam

Don’t know about anything else, but you can reprogram the key fairly easily. I just found a couple of guides on YouTube.
