Hi.
Im having an issue and hoping someone can help. I had a battery problem over Christmas and now when I start the car cold it seems to be really down on power. Once warm was working fine. Also now the car is running oddly. It’s as if it’s losing power then getting it again intermittently while driving.

Its an A4 3.0tdi convertible 2008

thanks folks in advance

jim

A3 uncommanded engine shutdown

Bobs dad · 23 hours ago23 hr

I have a new A3 Black Edition auto. Within four weeks of delivery the engine cut out whilst driving, the drivetrain under positive power. The car rolled to a complete halt, the retardation entirely commensurate with the wheels driving a dead engine - it did not freewheel. The instrument panel remained powered and displayed no warning lights or fault messages. I shut the car down and after a pause restarted. Since then it has operated normally. The Distributor has found no data supporting t

56Doc · February 25Feb 25

I’ve had these wheels since I sold my old 2004 Allroad many years ago & now they’re just in the way, so if anyone wants them, they’re available in Weston-super-Mare! they were refurbished after I bought them, I used them as my summer wheels. I know 1 wheel had a chip in the lacquer, but that was it, they’ve been undercover in the garage ever since I Sold the car, So should be pretty much the same. free to collector if no takers I’ll have to scrap them.

DAB upgrade for 2013 A6 allroad

CHM · May 14May 14

Dear all. I have recently purchased a japanese Import 3.0 A6 Avant allroad. The MMI shows FM, AM and LW but no DAB. Is/was there an upgrade available from Audi or aftermarket when DAB became more commonplace.(Vauxhall offered DAB upgrade for my 2014 Zafira in 2015).

Alternator failure related to mild hybrid system?

PocketsAintEmptyCuh · October 16, 20232 yr

I've been seeing more and more posts across FB and multiple forums about people having the alternator failure related to the 48v mild hybrid system and wanted to see if anyone has had this issue and how their experience has been. I know in USA they have announced a TSB with an extended warranty for 7 years but I am trying to get more info from Audi UK but not getting anywhere. Has anyone had this issue and if so has Audi fixed it (if out of warranty)? It seems to be tha

Audi A4 B9 Avant 2016 TDI > Brake pad wear sensor message

letsonk · 2 hours ago2 hr

Hi can anyone help with this. I'm looking to code out the 'brake pad' wear limit reached message on dash. I managed to eliminate the orange brake light symbol when the message appears along with the audible by changing the long coding on VCDS but does anyone know where i can delete the message aswell on VCDS? New pads & discs fitted and also new genuine brake wear sensors but there seems to be that there might be a fault somewhere so im looking to de code it completley. See picture below

Engine / ECU to Injector wiring loom

Neil Robertson · 13 hours ago13 hr

Hi, I'm looking for a engine/injector wiring loom that goes from the ECU (8P0 907 115 T Med 9.1) to the injectors (06F906036A) for a Audi A3 2008 2.0L TFSI Quattro due to an intermittent misfire issue on cylinder no. 4. Cost from TPS for genuine replacement is astronomical, any help would be appreciated (e.g. where to source a replacement, correct part no., etc)

ZeroX · May 30May 30

Hi, following on from my previous thread, I have seen another car that I was interested in: https://www.evanshalshaw.com/search/details/used/audi/a5/automatic-petrol-white-coupe/06ce9494-f94d-f111-8fdd-000d3a874790/ When I enquired with the dealer, they said there is only one stamp in the book from February of this year, and no history at all in the Audi database. So there is only evidence of 1 service in almost 10 years. I am starting to get a bit !Removed! off with this actually, and it's real

C5 RS6 034 strut top mount

petec5 · yesterday at 09:58 AM1 day

Hello all After a year of owning my first RS6 c5. It seems I'm in need of new strut top mounts. Do any of you have experience of the 034 rubber mounts? I've seen they are solid vs original ones that have bearings. How much of a difference does this make. And on a side note has anyone used RB Racing brake disc. What's your thoughts? Any help will be much appreciated Pete

Kian · May 27May 27

Hello everyone, Wondering if anyone can help me. A few weeks ago my EPC light came on and immediately went into limp mode and started jumping when driving at 5mph. After a few hours I came back to the car and it was fine so I drove it to my storage unit. I came back the next day and when starting it the EPC light and EML light were illuminated and the idle was quite rough. I came back to it about a week ago and all the doors were locked, the key isn't unlocking it and the barrel of the central

Wing mirrors don't fold out when unlocking the car.

Wing mirrors don't fold out when unlocking the car.

john260164 · 20 hours ago20 hr

Hi. My partner's recently bought Q2 has an odd and not very welcome feature. The wing mirrors fold on locking the car with the key pilp, but don't unfold when the car is unlocked with the plip. They only do so when the key goes in the ignition. In some circumstances this can lead to doubt about whether the doors are locked or not whereas before it was obvious as the plip alone folded and unfolded the wing mirrors (as is does with my similarly new A3). The garage says it can't be changed but does
