Did you replace it on your car?

We have a Golf Mk7 1.4 TSI which makes the same noise at 0.05-0.06 in the first post at every start up.

Are we referring to the noise at 0:05-0.06 in the original post?

I've not heard of Hengst before but happy to learn. Understood re the branding. I've just purchased two Varta from Battery Megastore on eBay as there was a 10% off coupon too (and one for the wife's car as hers measured 11.6V). Thanks again for the direction on that.

Thanks for the heads up on Battery Mega Store https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/272392369515?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=UCf_2T-FRvm&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=BbKs5X6FTgi&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=WHATS_APP I bought the equivalent Varta for my B8 however, something I did notice was fluid leaked out of the breather plug and stripped a little paint in the tray. There was a tube to insert on one side which I assumed was for this purpose. Maybe I shouldn't have removed both transport plugs? I'm avoiding Bosch since the filter issue and no response from their support team 😀

Thanks Gareth. I'll be purchasing this when I know I'll be home for the day. https://www.tayna.co.uk/car-batteries/varta/f21/ And yes, you're right about the coding. The guys over at Ross-tech have made it very easy http://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/Battery_Replacement

Thank you. The car battery voltage has been reducing for several months. It's now on 11.9V so I'll tackle the heated seat when I replace the battery in a few weeks, and report back.

My A5 has the same fault. I may get round to resolving this. Let us know how you get on.

Not sure if this is true for A7, but if the A5 B8 was overfilled with oil, it could enter the bottom of air filter housing which directly in line is the MAF sensor that will cause the static fault light if dirty 🤔 Maybe someone can confirm or deny this. Either way, I'd be tempted to spend £12 and 10 minutes removing and cleaning the MAF sensor. Won't do any harm.

Sounds like a classic door lock module. Have you tried pressing 'unlock' twice on the Fob?

Such valuable information here guys - thanks for the clarification 🙂

This is very informative. Just to check my understanding; are you saying even when the sensor has been replaced and the error disappears, it's also necessary to have the ECU counter reset?

Let us know what you find 👍

I've read a few posts where people have reported this and the issue was water in the sills, which has got through the bungs in the floor panel underneath the car. Might be worth checking.

Go for the S Line and dodge the pot holes? 😀 😉

Welcome to the forum 😆

I've done similar in the past, or using thread removal tools. Just jack the car off the ground and be patient.

Think it's called My Audi Try Google search 😀

Do you mean acoustic lock/unlock?

@Steve Q nothing to repair for me on this occasion 😀 I added photos for @RichPow to compare with his.

Forgot about this. The MOT flagged offside. It's not as bad as I thought. Nearside added for reference.

Not know the code makes it very difficult. There is however some helpful info in this thread with a few very quick and easy things to try.

@Neville Donaldson Glad you got it sorted. And thanks for sharing the fix.
