Hi all, car has been running fine apart from aircon not working but isn't playing ball today. I suspect it has a leak; had it re-gassed and it stayed cool for approx one journey then now doesn't come on, only 'econ' light stays permanently on.

Went to start it this morning and it doesn't turn over, dash lights all come on then three beeps come out. Wiper blades etc run very slow.

I am thinking it's a new battery time but before I go and get one, what would the three long beeps suggest? It's a 3.2 quattro if that makes a difference.

Thanks in advance...
 
Change the battery out & see what occurs, search for Varta Ultra Dynamic on the forum, great battery.
 
The 3/4 warning beeps on startup are battery related. I believe 3 is for the main battery and 4 is for the alarm siren backup battery, so would fit perfectly with the fact your battery is playing up.
