Update: Our friend has just been, the issue is glow plug 4 - all 4 glow plugs were changed when they were prepping the car! My partner and father in law said this might be the case, so guess they were right! Waiting for the dealership to open so I can call them and update them. I’ll still be heading there tomorrow and hopefully they can sort it the same day without me needing to take a courtesy car home! 🤞🏻🙏🏻

Thank you, me too 🙏🏻

Keep me posted!

Well I hope you get it sorted asap. Surely if they’re not going to entertain sorting it or acknowledging it, you can just give them the car back! Have you any warranty from them? Annoying buying a car that’s new to you, and then there being issues! I’ve been very frustrated this weekend, stuck in with 2 small children not knowing whether I can drive this car or not! Our friend is due this morning to plug it in, so guess I’ll know more then!

Fingers crossed they get you sorted and it’s nothing too serious. Bit naughty of them not to tell you beforehand though! 🙄

Congrats! hope all goes ok with the recall. What’s it for?

Ah no! Annoying! What year is it? I had a Q3 before this and was impressed with it, had it for 6 years! Just wanted something bigger (kids!).

Thank you.. yeah he seemed adamant but then who knows! The car has been through various checks in preparation for me to collect it, 4 glow plugs changed, brake pads etc. The guy said the tech who he spoke to was the guy who prepped the car for me to collect and he was pretty certain that’s what it would be but like you say, the light could come on for anything and we won’t know until we have the codes. Will know more tomorrow morning when our friend comes over to plug it in 🤞🏻 Spoke to the garage further, they’ll obviously sort whatever it is for me, it’s just a pain as they’re an hour away and can’t go until Monday morning!

Hey. Collected an Audi Q5 2.0 Quattro yesterday. Diesel, auto. Drove it 40 miles home, got into it today and the EML came on. Spoke with garage, they’re happy for me to take it back to them on Monday morning for them to sort - he said he spoke to one of the technicians who said he thinks it’s potentially a O2 sensor issue. Car feels fine, no lag, and drives what I think it normal. We have a mechanic friend coming tomorrow who is going to plug it in and see what’s going on. The tech at the dealership said because the vehicles potentially been standing for a few weeks he thinks this is why the oxygen sensor light is on. I personally have no clue about cars in depth, just wondering if this sounds likely?
