Steering and clutch heavy a4 b8 3,0tdi

Featured Replies

Hello I’ve got issue that I cannot find anywhere else 
My steering and clutch is heavy only when for instance when I try to turn little bit faster , but when turning slowly it’s normal no matter the speed 
Same thing to clutch pedal , when pressed slowly it’s light and normal but when pressed fast it’s heavy with a lot of resistance 
I just replaced a solenoid on my power steering servotronic and it’s still heavy
This got to me that clutch and steering have correlation and it’s software issue because everything was checked mechanicly and it’s ok
Please help it kind of dangerous too

I will make video if needed 
Also I have vcds but it’s not showing anything useful
 

Steering will be electric so any problems with charge system or battery can affect the steering as it consumes a lot of current. Your Clutch is purely a hydraulic system apart from a sensor which is there for the  start and cruise control systems

Steering is hydraulic (servotronic)

So do you think it can be like alternátor or battery? 

My battery is only 75A its pretty small far that engine maybe should reprogram battery?or get bigger one 

because still … everything seems to be ok on hardware

Other problem could be  issue on the J519 control module for comfort because the solenoid on hydraulic steering is operated from there

Electrical hydrolic systems like yours should place less strain on the electrical system then a electrical mechanical system, if you’ve replaced the solinoid and everything else checks out have a look and libe the following linkage as a known problem on some Audis

I did look at it and it’s fine (even put some greese on it ) but no difference
