I am having problems with my alarm not arming. When I lock the doors with the remote, no flashing indicators, or flashing LED's and the horn doesn't sound if you leave the sunroof open and wave you arm inside to try and set it off, so definitley no alarm...
When it rains I also have a soggy passenger footwell carpet. This is all due to the plastic scuttle plate not fitting flush to the window as the clips had been broken (By an Audi service!) and the water running in through the pollen filter, through the heater onto the carpet... :-(
Just ordered a new scuttle plate (£33 - which is surprisingly cheap)
A few people have mentioned that this is a common problem with water running into the convenience unit, that under the passenger carpet would be getting soaked at the moment.
Also noticed that on the DIS it shows both the passenger and driver door open when just the passenger door is open. But when the driver door is open only the driver door is shown open on the DIS. As people mentioned the door lock micro switches being an issue, I have also replaced the passenger door lock and this didn't fix.
So the fault possibly points to water getting into the convenience unit... BUT... Just rang Audi to order a new convenience unit, and they have told me that I there isn't one in the 8L Audi S3 or A3 for that matter...
Is this right? If so what controlls the alarm on the 8L S3/A3.... PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE... don't say the ECU... :'-(
