I'd always go off the dipstick rather than the mmi one to be honest.

That's good then 🙂 glad you got sorted 🙂

New car battery but remote locking not working
Steve Q replied to Sunshinesnoopy's topic in Audi A4 (B6) Forum
That's not good! The average life of a battery is 5-7 years. Most come with a 3 year warranty. So might be worth seeing if you van get a refund on the current one. -
My first port of call would be to get the battery checked for it's performance. As I failing battery can affected all sorts of electrical systems including stop/start.
-
If the option isn't in the mmi then that would lead me to believe it was an optional extra. You could always see if you could get it retrofitted. Or alternatively you could get an upgraded performance stainless steel exhaust.
-
Glad you got sorted 🙂
-
I'd get a second opinion from another garage but I wouldn't be cutting any corners where the braking system is concerned.
-
Glad this thread helped you 🙂
-
So glad we've saved you some money 🙂

New car battery but remote locking not working
Steve Q replied to Sunshinesnoopy's topic in Audi A4 (B6) Forum
The battery might need coding to the car. Once coded it should allow all systems to operate normally -
I'd google car interior restorers or you could try local bodyshops as they should be used to replacing interiors.
-
Do t think the fix is available yet which is ridiculous.
-
I think it depends which radio you have. Concert is single CD. Symphony can have 6 CD.
-
It might have to go to a roof specialist or Audi.

I dont but I guess they'll base it on how many cars we have attending. -
Definitely sone sort of phone holder.

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 It might just be a different level of mmi. As it wwent in they should have done any required software updates on the mmi.
-
No probs at all. Surely it's just a seal that's gone? Let's fave it if it were more serious like a cracked diff you'd know about it. Might also be worth speaking to an audi parts department to see if they can tell you if there's a seal etc. They'll have schematics of the diff. Or should have.
-
Ive had a look for the individual recall codes but not found anything useful. If it's any consolation an update to the mmi or other software of the car is classed as a recall.
-
Audi should tell you whst the recalls are. Car washes seem to be dependent on the garage, often using covid as the excuse not to. My wife's jag gets a clean everytime at main dealer.
-
I suspect it can be refurbished. Your best bet is to speak to an audi specialist or a gearbox/diff specialist.
-
Definitely get the battery coded.
-
The battery might have had to be programmed to the car.
-
Can't believe they tried to charge you. Definitely get it back to them and leave it with them for them to do proper road tests.
-
My advice would be to get a second opinion before you go ahead with any work.
