Hi Gareth, i had already arranged for a spark to come out. plugged in and car did not recognise my key, he priced with a well know Audi trade supplier £780 for new ignition lock, he found on ebay repair kits(micro switches and relay) £45-£85. Hopefully the cheaper option will fix the problem, Key is currently working. Thanks for the advice David

Hi Gareth, I did not check the negative connection to see if sparked as it was brand new now totally flat and i was not able to start immediately when it was fitted (exactly the same issues) Regards, David

Hi Gareth, Thanks for replying. When i fitted the new battery on saturday the same problem,radio,MMI lights etc worked but no start up sequence on main instrument display when pressing start button or using the key. Went out to the car today and no power whatsoever so something is draining the battery? Regards, David

Jumped into car Saturday MMI and radio came on, no lights on dash would not start on button or key and locked in park. Battery 6 months old but took back to Halfords who exchanged it. Fitted and same issue.Today no power at all so something is draining the battery, any ideas?
