If you've bought it with finance I'd recommend you speak to the finance company. Advise them the car isn't fit for purpose due to the faults. They might fight your corner to get the finance agreement cancelled under the terms of not fit for purpose. This will cause Audi to fix the car or if it can't relieve you of it.

Sorry to hear of this. Hope they've given you a courtesy car! Are they changing the gear selector?

Intermittent electronic handbrake problem with no fault indi
Steve Q replied to SarahS's topic in Audi Servicing and Repairs
I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. It could be an issue with the switch. -
I think it will role back slightly but not sure about the bunny hoping
-
Sorry to hear that.
-
I could be wrong. But I think a part of it might depend on what packs have been ordered.

Alternate to VCDS that works with 2022 S6 and other makes
Steve Q replied to K200CWC's topic in Audi A6 (C8) Forum
Glad it's all good 👍😊 -
Have you had a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up? When was the gearbox last serviced? If s tronic it can stop engaging gears if the oil is degrading. Does the gear selector light up as normal?
-
Think flat bottom one is an extra.
-
The first one when illuminated turns off the tow away alarm sensor. The second when illuminated turns of the interior alarm. Not sure about the 1, 2, 3 though
-
When was the gearbox oil last changed? Degrading gearbox oil can cause this.
-
You're welcome. I'd suspect it's that caliper
-
Have you done a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up? I know when my dad had something similar with his A6 he broke the air sensor.
-
Yea I'd suspect it is.
-
Do osram do any I wonder
-
Glad you got sorted 🙂
-
Could be the door module, broken wire, Or the bar disconnected from.the handle. Have you taken the door card off to inspect?
-
I think it's an issue with the screen. You could try disconnecting it and reconnect it but I think you might need to source a second hand unit as the most cost effective option
-
Glad you got sorted. I'd never have suspected the cluster to be honest
-
Sticking caliper? Is there any burning smell or excess heat from any of the wheels when you park up.
-
If it's been running fine with the whine for 4 years without problems then I'd leave it. Only get it looked at if the noise gets worse. If it ain't broke don't fix it as the saying goes.

Help Needed!! Cluster programming to ECU
Steve Q replied to Billy Clark's topic in Audi A4 (B7) Forum
Sorry to hear of your health issues. I know on my older A6 the ECU, cluster and injection pump all have to talk to one another to get the car to run. So you'll definitely need to get the cluster coded. You'll need an auto electrican to help with this. Safe mode is the car realising that these components aren't talking to one another and the car imobiliser has stopped it working. Also the sports exhaust shouldn't affect the MOT as long as catalytic converter is fitted. Egr might not fail MOT as long as mot tester can see it fitted. -
I've never heard of a glow plug delete and not found anything on Google. Glow plugs are designed to warm the fuel system to help start the diesel engine. Without them it won't start.
-
Is there anything in the spare wheel well such as a battery? I'd definitely recommend you try eBay. You might find one if you look under vw golf as the golf space saver will fit the A3 hub.
-
I agree with Gareth. Get the battery changed then see if fault codes return
