I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up as it might not be the regulator

I second this good advice.

I'd be very careful. What's the rest of the service history like? How many owners etc. Is it dealer or private sale?

Make a note of them and then clear them. See which ones come back after a few days. As some of them could be historic ones.

No members as yet I don't think. What model are you considering?

Have you tried the spare key to at least rule out key issue?

I think we've seen similar issues with those on octopus. I think the issue is with the energy provider rather than the car.

It shouldn't do, as long as it's fitted properly.

Glad you got sorted. Good work!

Keep the pressure on the warranty company as it's not fixed. Don't forget to labour the inconvenience of not having your car for 3 months. If paid for the car with any form of finance don't forget you can get them on the case stating the car isn't fit for purpose etc.

Please keep us posted on how you get on

Well the fact the issue came back after 20 mins makes me think the warranty company/garage knew it wasnt fixed. As surely that would have come up on a road test? Did they even do a road test... Definitely speak to warranty company again.

Sorry to hear of this outcome. Was there any good will from Audi due to the mileage covered?

Please keep us posted on how you get on. I wonder if it's an immobiliser issue as the fuel pump is linked to the immobiliser as a security measure

Might be worth popping into the dealer to see how much they will quote rather than email. At least that way they can see you and the car are genuine. You'll need to show them the v5 in your name if ordering the key.

It'll be replaceable and unfortunately won't be covered under warranty. Might be worth checking on eBay. I wonder if it's just a piece of tri that needs to be changed rather than the whole console?

I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. It might be a relay.

Glad warranty company changed the megatronics unit. Sorry it hasn't fixed the issue. Are you pushing the warranty company to change the gearbox?

This is the problem, lots of time wasters. I don't think that quite is too bad for a 19 year old. Most insurance is more than that for a 1.2 Corsa! Please keep us posted on how the other viewing goes.

I can't speak for the Audi system but I believe BMW's have a similar issue. On BMWs they have a little battery which powers the function and if this starts to die it can throw up similar warning lights.
