Hi I think you need to change the o2 sensor, that may well cure your problem.

RS7 C8 coolant pump error

LKZ · 3 hours ago3 hr

I had the BSG replaced on my 2020 RS7, and after 2 days from taking it back from the delearship i scanned it just to see if any historic errors are present, and i saw the coolant pump error. Nothing came up on my dashboard, but i still took it back to Audi because i thought they left air in the cooling system. They had it refilled, and claimed they used the correct process, but today when I started the car the error came back. Still nothing on the dash. Has anybody had anything similar? I'm goin

Nigel Child · March 11Mar 11

Two weeks ago took delivery of my new 2026 Q5. I travel to France and Switzerland on an occasional basis. The dealer tells me that the GPS will automatically update the car to the local driving requirements i.e. miles to kms, lights. Anybody have experience of this. Just coming from having 9 BMWs I am used to having to adjust everything before driving off the ferry in France.

MMI Screen works, but won't go up

TheTallBloke · Saturday at 07:13 AM3 days

The MMI screen in my 2017 A3 (8V??) won't go up anymore. For a while it's been making a weird noise sometimes when the car starts and the screen is moving up as the system starts up. It seemed to be a mechanical noise, like something was rubbing against something, or a gear with grinding, but it was really hard to pinpoint. Also, not my daily driver, so I often forgot that it happened. Now the screen comes on, but doesn't rise out of the dash. I was able to remove it from the dash and see th

Hi guys and girls. Hope this is okay. Thought this was a New Zealand site when joining. I crashed my A6 c5 wide-body 2002 Audi. And before I send to wreckers seeing if anyone needs parts. I have owned it for 14 years now and spend bit of money making it stronger. Rebuild trans, abs system, cooling system, made from two cars. Regn on hold.

Hello everyone I have been the fortunate owner of an A6 C6 3.0 tdi quattro for the last year and 3 months with (surprisingly and thankfully) no issues. The time has come to change the control arms (both front and rear) After some research I am still yet to arrive to a decision so I thought I would ask the Audi community for some advice to best help me I understand lemforder is an OEM supplier to Audi but the pricing of febi bilstein products are tempting, especially given the fact to change all

Hi, I'm Pat and I own a Q3 - I have joined today. What is the required period for replacement of the timing belt. In the last 6 months I have become aware of belt failures in Ford Escorts, Volvo XC60 and an Audi A3. I have spoken with many people and been given ranges from 40k to 186k. Being totally confused, I went into my local Audi Dealer (Farnborough) to get a definitive answer. Having explained my confusion to the representative there, I was shown a document entitled Service Related Items
