Mcleanl866 Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 Hi, I have an Audi A3 2010 diesel 180000 miles. It’s started making a really loud knocking noise coming from the engine. If I try to move it putting my foot on the gas it just cuts out. Basically I want to know if anyone has any ideas on what it could be, or is it time to say goodbye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
