  1. Sorry to hear of your situation and for the delayed reply. p0299 indicates turbo under boost. Before writing off the turbo if get your mechanic to check the turbo pipes, as over time these can perish and where they attach to the turbo they can let sir through when under pressure but would look fine when not under pressure if that makes sense. Your second fault code 05171 supports my theory as it implies a boost leak from a pipe or similar.
  2. Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 yep it can be changed. You're probably best going for an aftermarket apple car play/android auto set up. You can buy these online.
  3. Definitely worth a shot but I'd still recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up for the dpf. You could look at having it professionally cleaned but this may only buy you time.
  4. If bought from a dealer I'd recommend getting it back to them for a diagnostic as they should fix it free of charge if bought within the last 30 days.
  5. Sorry you have felt the forum has been unhelpful. This seems to have all stemmed from a lack of information in the car you advertised. As your membership is free, there isn't a full need to cancel.
  6. You'll have to go into your profile and do it that way I believe.
  7. If the dipstick is showing ok then I'd say it's the oil.levdl sensor at fault. You'll need a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up
  8. Please keep us posted on how you get on
  9. That's good if that's the case. Audi could definitely tell you.
  10. It might be worth you speaking to Audi to see if they can tell you.
  11. I think this is pointing to the fuel pump. I'd suspect the high pressure fuel pump. But this doesn't explain the epc light. The alternative thing could be to get the battery tested to see if it's working correctly. Just in case it's failing and throwing up fault codes.
  12. Might be worth you speaking to autologics or Audi retrofits as members have used them and been pleased with the results
  13. Darn, at least it was worth a shot. Could be an issue with the megatronics unit.
  14. You're most welcome 🙂 please keep us posted on how you get on with the retrofit.
  15. Please keep us posted on how you get on
