Just as promised here are the pics of all faults, come up all out of nothing every time always at very low speed, reversing, parking, and I think every time when I’m steering in either left or right but never when the steering wheel is looking straight forward.

Yeah am thinking we have same issue 

So happened again today car was fault free on carista.

Same faults appear every time listed below.

I was turning left onto a curb 3 mph ish 🤔

I get tyre pressure / abs / handbrake etc etc all lights up like Xmas tree 

Happened today bumping up curb all faults listed below on carista 

was fault free beforehand. 

All faults have been cleared and have not returned. 

Same faults appear every incident. 

Can't really make anything out in video Phil. 

Could be somethings fell into that area maybe have a poke around and investigate further...

Only thing I can think of is brake disc plate sometime get corrosion and come loose.

Total guess work tho .

Hi Etch and all.

I've just signed up as this was one of the many (prob 200+) threads I read on the internet regarding similar issues i.e TPMS, ABS, Spoiler, Park Brake, Stop Start errors etc.

I've been having this issue with my A7 for a couple of weeks now. and after spending almost £400 replacing abs wheel sensors, suspect coolant valves and testing with a new battery...it turns out it was actually the central gateway module under the rear seat or the wiring loom leading up to the gateway that's faulty/shorting. 

I saw your post re your kids movement causing the glitches and low and behold when I applied hand pressure to the seat and carpet around the area of the module my dash lit up like a xmas tree. worse my instrument panel and mmi was going crazy too and rebooting whilst driving. Anyway I removed the rear bench and disconnected/reconnected the module and so far I have driven 20 miles with no issue. Prior to this I couldn't drive 10m before the car started pinging like mad.

VCDS scans weren't really helpful either as they showed intermittent loss of communication/missing messages faults in basically every module. So nothing clear.

I hope this helps someone to at least identify the issue. if the module is indeed faulty, due to the programming protection it will require an expensive trip to the dealership to replace and program.

This must be module you speak of not my issue gave it a wiggle with engine running no change .

This fixed mine perfectly @ £4 am confident it's yous problem too.

Just remove mmi unit & remove blue plug behind insert new blue gps plug stick gps unit under dash Refit mmi unit and your done. 

I have same size tyres on my saloon running 34psi all round.

I've saw this in different post .

worth a check

this is unit under rear seat not my issue gave it wiggle with engine running.

Put smart charger on battery today was sitting around nearly a week when clutch was being repaired.

Possible cause of fault ... being 10 year old battery .

yeah same here it always clears with restart every time. What I’ve noticed is they always come on when I’m steering, parking, reversing so always at low speed. I’m waiting on pricing for a new wheel hub and get that changed for start and we’ll see how that goes. 
My main question is that how will I pass on nct if my problem isn’t solved until then?

Yeah mine too at low speed.

Mine passed mot as it wasn't on test time 🙏

Keep us updated I will do same .

Depends what you buy.

 

The flywheel and clutch come as complete unit just to bolt on if you but luk kit slave cylinder comes with it. 

You don't want miss match parts in there thats for sure it's not a regular clutch replacement very different sort of setup my mechanic told me.

So £250 for clutch kit? Does that include release bearing? And concentric slave cylinder? Was it from dealers? 

Depends what you buy.

Mine all came,back today short trip out with family cleared after a restart.

My battery is the 2013 original could be that (did fully charge it with smart charger) 

or the drivers abs sensor.

Some strange fault codes from carista today below .. 

I did notice when changing my discs my brake pad wear sensors are missing plugs ripped off both sides. 

Parts all in £750 luk 

Labour mammoth job £350 

Flywheel Alone £500 .. 

The £350 Labour is a good price for the job you'll find some garages putting massive price in because don't want to do the job.

my advice replace the lot

Just done mine clutch was fine but with all work involved everything was changed.

£1100 in total 

All errors have cleared ...

Must be some sort of wiring issue 

Just to chip in all of my abs flat tyre message's arrived back yesterday. 

I was changing the gps antenna for a eBay cheaper unit successfully 🫡 all my wires behind mmi and air con were disconnected immediately got all abs errors connected all back up and just left air bag light on removing that with carista bit of a long shot but could that have been my issue or yours all errors gone again will report back if they arise again. 

Replaced gps antenna today with cheapo off eBay just stuck under dash now all is well nav works perfectly too with 9 satellites 

Below is gps unit may help others ...

All sorted guys was dmf costing £750 for full kit including release bearing was £1100 in total all sorted 

I have no paperwork for mine but it's a ina belt with date 22102020 which when it was manufactured would had it done around 115k - 120k currently 138k could have been installed later depending on shelf time ... but al go with manufacturers date to be safe on miles 

Emailed ina and the helped me get date off the belt 22/10/2020

not sure but it's mammoth job to do.

Cars been up on ramp and clatter is from inside the box so looking like clutch kit and dmf 

Going into workshop tonight will inform of outcome ....

Only thing saying no to dmf is no vibration through peddle when stationery and peddle is pressed all other issues suggest the dmf ... 

Disconnected gps and charged battery now seems to work as it should 

Ordered cheapo gps antenna off fleebay

possibly battery issue as its original 2013 unit.

Had a go moving exhaust by hand seems secure .... hope its not dmf
