  1. Thank you Gareth. That was my working assumption as well . I have mainly owned Volvos and any warning lights are always yellow or red . Thank you for your help
  2. Thanks Benjamin, My stab at it is, it is nothing to worry about. If it was, it would be in yellow or red. It is likely to be just an icon used to display fuel associated data, such as the mpg. it shows. Kind regards, Gareth. Any other owners confirm this for Ben??

  4. So it’s been a few weeks and still no updates or progress. Iwrote to the bad dealer giving them 14 days before I take action at court, that was up yesterday. I sent them the report from the good dealership proving the car was faulty. I heard nothing. I’m a bit stuck now because my credit card company are still looking into this for me and are taking a long time, over 4 weeks so far. I’m reluctant to start court proceedings until they reach a verdict but I’m concerned that they will just instruct the bad dealer to repair the faults and wash their hands of it. I’m still hoping for a refund on return of the vehicle. Failing that, I’ll keep the car, get it repaired under warranty with the good dealership and seek compensation through the courts for the damage and the months and expense of being without a usable car, not to mention the devaluation.

    Seems Peter is having a day off Dany, so no one is any the wiser , but that’s three of us who have spent our time on a Saturday. I’ve strimmed 3 lawns and about 30 mtrs. of verges, painted a shed door, had a look at how I can put a new belt on a mower, Oh, and spent some time answering questions on here. That’s been my day off! Good, isn’t it?

    Very possibly. If the CV joints are worn they will click when: 1. The accelerator pedal is pressed (only Americans call it a gas pedal). 2. When the accelerator pedal is released quickly at speed. 3. When the steering wheel is turned to, or close to, full lock. Of course the noise may be caused by something else, but it makes sense to check the most likely fault first, so look at the CV joints and let us know what you find.
  8. Hi somewhere on OBD Eleven should be an adaption facility this trains the new unit to learn its values again via the ECU which then thinks ok the units new and cancels the old learned values and starts to re learn its new operating strategy, it can be left and will work it out itself but I have always found the re adaption method cancels any funny running while it learns, your type of valve is not dissimilar to mine and they normally fail because the valve in the cut out leaks excess gas into the engine, nowadays thats known as excessive EGR flow. Steve.
  9. Precious few days that scream "Convertible" so far this summer. I took the old girl out the other day and the stumbling pick-up and misfire in cruise is back... 🤦‍♂️ So yesterday, on the recommendation of my mate at Norwich Audi, I dropped it off at CAT Automotive for a deep-dive diagnosis. They rang me this morning and told me that all the issues I am having comes down to the EGR valve that I replaced (with an aftermarket one). They recommend altering the map to effectively delete the EGR valve - the emission value it controls is not tested for in UK MoTs anyway. I've asked them to go ahead. Interestingly, the tech mentioned that they have come across aftermarket cams (like I had fitted) which are not designed to work with Diesel Particulate Filters, and told me to keep an eye on it. If I get a DPF light come up, I'll give the car an Italian tune-up on the A47 for five miles or so and then restart it... Looking forward to getting her back - standby for weeks of drizzle... 😆
  10. Resurrection update... I left the convertible with Norwich Audi whilst I was out of the country. So, they replaced all the injectors, plus the loom that powers them. Unfortunately, this didn't cue the cruising misfire.😬 Their Master Tech reckons it's likely to be cams and camshaft followers...😱 I've told them to button it up, and I'll decide what to do next... Bugger. Mike 🤨
