Thanks for the advice- i don't have any add ons so will check sensors etc As to not being able to afford my car, I should have said that I don't WANT to foot the bill for, what is, an intermittent fault- friends who have 'prestige' cars under warranty have spent hours in dealers trying to find similar type faults- hate to think what a bill would be! I'm sorry that you think I'm too cheap for an Audi- I assure if you met me you'd still think I was cheap! ;-))

Hi there, I have 2003 A3 2.0 TDI that I've had since the sumner! It has an issue with the wipers... Every now and then they would do 2or 3 slow sweeps followed by a manic 3 sweeps, going so fast they went off the edge of the screen! This happened now and then getting more regular over, say a month, until they did it and wouldn't stop- even if I turned the engine off they kept going! I discovered I could stop them by popping the bonnet, as it jammed them- I was going to disconnect battery otherwise! I know it's not good jamming them but couldn't find fuse at the time! Once started the next day they were fine, but yesterday, after a month or so, it started again and wouldn't stop! Please help- I really can't affords the audi dealer and hoping it may be simple... Though in honesty sounds expensive!!

Hi there Thanks for having me here! I'm after a spot of help about troublesome wiper blades-I think they may be possessed! where's best to post a question? Thanks Sally
