I'd definitely get the battery checked in that case. If it isn't then the airbag warning could be a loose wire under the passenger seat, oil pressure could just be the sensor/switch

Thanks for the advice 🙂 do you find them comfortable?

You might find there's an adapter that plugs into the bank if the radio.

My wife had one of those Astra's with that engine and on the whole it was reliable. The mokka that came after it wasn't however. Exactly, the only problem with modern cars (within the last 20 years) is the wiring and electrics.

Could be an injector as per the diagnostic check. You could also look at changing the glowplugs and glowplug relay to see if that helps it start quicker. When I had a similar issue on my V6 A6 diesel only 3 of the 6 glowplugs were working.

Has anyone used these inflatable mattresses? My boot is used for the various gear I carry on my road trips hence why a full bed won't work. I have a 2002 Audi a6 estate. Thanks all 🙂

Yea it has been looked after. I'm the second owner, my dad was the first owner and bought the car new. Anything it's needed it's had. I over service it if anything. It's the 2.5tdi. mines not used daily either but still does around 4-6k miles a year on road trips etc.

You could look at a second hand part from eBay.

No probs at all 🙂 Wow that is low. Whereas mines on 344k miles on the original engine and gearbox which have never been rebuilt

TT wheel might fit.

Brake fluid should be done every 2 years. If the gearbox is an auto then the oil should be changed every 38k miles. Your car has a timing chain. This picture should help too.

How old is the battery? A failing battery can throw up all sorts of fault codes through electrical gremlins. What are the other issues it's throwing up?

I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. It could be the lift motor.

Keep us posted 🙂 could be the whole switch panel. The driver's side switches control them all. One way to discover if that unit has failed is to try and put the passenger window down with the passenger side switch. Yea you should be ok to drive it

No probs at all. Sorry I can't help more.

If it's not in the mmi then it might not be fitted. I know various members have used autologics for retrofits and been happy with the results.

I appreciate this is for a newer Audi but the reset process is the same: It could just be the switch that's gone.

Glad you've found the cause. Very useful info for fellow members 🙂

Thanks for that info, worth knowing. I bet it's got better emissions too.

Have you done the reset on the switch?

Lol I sure do, however I'm not that committed where I'll work late on a car lol. I still can't believe you had to go to such lengths to make one fit. I'm shocked there wasn't an off the shelf item.

Glad you got sorted 🙂

I'd love a set of them but they're rare as hens teeth!

Whilst they can make more money from motorists who use older the cars the longer it'll be around for.
