65 plate A5 S-line wiring gremlins PLEASE HELP !!
coupe4 replied to poppleton1981's topic in VAG Com Diagnostic Discussions
i think steve is right,a friend of mine had the same sympoms as you and it was the control unit that needed replacing,it was under the carpet behind the drivers seat.Greg -
hi chris,the only issue ive had really is water getting into the rear light fittings,which is a common fault on these,replacement bulb holders are getting very scarce too so check yours for corrosion and see what condition theyre in,make sure the waterdrains on both sides of the boot are clear of any dirt,this will allow rain water to flow away rather than sit in the boot rubber and seep into the taillight cluster.Greg

its been a very interesting thread to follow,im looking forward to seeing it finished,youve really done great work on it
-
a tip is to remove the wheel and wheel arch lining on the side you are doing and loosen the wing around the headlight,it doesnt take too long and its well worth doing it to avoid scratching the new headlight

hi jim,yes its a simple plug in and play,i recently replaced headlight on my a5,it was 720 euro,theyre not a cheap unit.Greg

hi pete yes the glass needs to be removed and some small screws to remove the cowl,its fiddly and a delicate job but can be done easily,check out a you tube video before you start.Greg

neil is right,its an immobiliser and if its still wired the car wont start until you put a little fob up to it.i had the same thing in an xr4i.

ah it could have been a lot worse,at least no other vehicle was involved so its probably a cheap lesson

i can see why it was 1100,it looks like a very professional repair in fairness.it wont happen him again hopefully! Greg

no problem,i know on the a6 of the same year its fairly straightforward, you need to remove the plastic strip that runs back from the door handle,theres 3 bolts there and then theres 2more down onthe panel where the switch is for the elec window. maybe google it and itll show you clearly.Greg

hi richard,i think the history for cam belt change and service history will be online if its been done by audi or a reputable independant garage.Greg
