HI Gareth, Thanks for the help. Ill try and check with my local dealer if the car would be subject to a re-call and i might have a look at the battery myself. the car was bought from a reputable dealer with full digital service history so i think the battery might be OK i wouldn't see any need to swap i out but worth a look i suppose. My gut feeling is that it is something to do with emissions hence only happening when accelerating. perhaps its a sensor issue. Thanks again, Tony.

Hi Guys, I recently bought a 2015 A6 Avant automatic. Im having trouble with the engine management light coming on intermittently and the error message saying start / stop system disabled. The issue only happens in the morning or when i haven't driven the car for a while and i begin to accelerate hard or drop a gear say to catch an amber light or overtake a truck. once i turn the car off/on and accelerate normally the light stays off. If im driving the car for about 10 - 15 minutes ill have no issues at all no matter how hard i accelerate. Anybody else come across an issue like this. Thanks for your help. Tony.
