The first thing I'd do is check there's nothing blocking the mechanism. I would argue it's not a motor/pump issue if it's doing the same thing when you do it manually. Cheers Steve

If everything mechanical is working in the engine bay as it should then that would suggest the heat controls have potentially failed. It could be a heater blower motor or heater blower resistor. Also looking at similar threads about this topic on the forum suggest it could be a blocked heater matrix. Hope I've helped. Cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum Shay, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 Take a look at our search box as I know failing soft top roofs has come up a few times. I wouldn't normally direct members to another forum but this thread on Audi sport.net is particularly usefull: https://www.audi-sport.net/xf/threads/audi-a4-cabriolet-soft-top-roof-hood-motor-repair-guide.131801/ Cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum Emma, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 The 2.0 tfsi engine is prone to excessive oil consumption due to Piston issues. I believe the 1.8 is more reliable. Here's a YouTube video which will help: Cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum Andrew, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 Hope you find a buyer. Please could you add some pics as this might help with the sale. Cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum Gary, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 My brother and a friend of mine both have had custom powerful exhausts. You can modify both the exhaust note and tailpipe. Not cheap but definitely worth it. Expect to pay £400. Cheers Steve

I do not believe the wiring would be there unfortunately. I wouldn't normally put in links to other forums, but this is a retrofit for a b6. https://www.audi-sport.net/xf/threads/retrofit-auto-dimming-rear-view-mirror-ch-lh-picture-heavy.247262/ Needless to say it's not going to be cheap. Cheers Steve

Oops! Sorry you've got so far to now backtrack. Looks good though, great work 👍

Glad you've replaced the battery, please let us know how you get on with the other jobs 👍 Cheers Steve

Hi Phil, On looking at a previous post on here regarding this issue. Audi technicians advise it has to be glued back into place. Appears to be a common issue. Your local motorfactors will have the correct adhesive. Cheers Steve

Please keep us posted on how you get on James 👍 Cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum Joe, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch. You say the car battery was left to go flat and then youve jump started it. In light of this I'd advise you get the battery checked first before changing other parts. If a battery is not operating at full/proper capacity then it can cause other electrical gremlins a d warning lights to come on etc. Cheers Steve

You're welcome 🙂 yes I believe so, I e never changed one personally though. Cheers Steve

You're welcome 🙂 you might have to get the ECU reset. I know other owners have had to do it. Alternatively speak to an auto electrician to see if there could be something else amiss. You have 2 coolant temperature sensors in your vehicle. One sends its signal to the ECU for proper fuel trim. The other one (which is what you need) sends its reading to 2 places. One place is your gauge, the other place is your radiator fan. Replace it quickly, since failure of one function typically signifies the impending failure of the other. It is part # W0133-1619933 Any number of suppliers have it. Should be around £30-£40 if memory serves correctly. It's hard to see, but your looking for a big brass nut. It's about an inch in diameter, and it's actually a plug that screws into a black pipe coming off the back of your engine. The actual sensor is held in place by that nut and is all one piece. The sensor you need sticks into that pipe and monitors the water temp. cheers Steve
