If i start and drive the car lets say at 12pm and i leave it sitting for a good12-14 hrs the car will just about turn over and start, on tuesday i parked the car up and today(thursday morning) battery was flat...i had to get out the jump leads to start it.

Audi fitted a brandnew battery end of dec 2011

I hooked up vcds and deleated previous faults,then did a full scan..........this is what i got
part no: 4F0 910 177

: 1 fault found 01699-motor for central locking hatch/trunk (v53)

nice one,my cars a 56 plate....will audi have to do that?

No I did mine at home... I used a battery charger on the slave points under bonnet...

If you have bluetooth run disc 2 twice, so you would be doing disc 1 once, disc 2 twice, disc 3 once...

If you do not have bluetooth you would be doing disc 1 once, disc 3 once...

People have done it with the engine running but I'm not a fan of that as when flashing you really don't want voltage variance,etc...

Empty CD changer use slot one... the MMI FW update will only update what needs to be updated... ref the screenshots in the PDF above...

2G MMI HIGH v5570 update disk part no 4L0 998 961 is available on ebay but IIRC Audi dealer is cheaper (less than a £10)...

They can get iffy about supply but will sell them to you... MMI update can take upto an hour...

Early hardware versions of bluetooth modules can sometimes not like a flash update but other modules in your car may not as well...

Flashing is not risk free...
make your own mind up and do what you wish...

Use google and search for mmi flashing failure or mmi update issue ... etc etc etc ...

Plenty info on web... try to use as least amount of electrical items in car when flashing, use a charger...

Switched off AC/blower... switch off interior lights, any "Auto" functions like coming/leaving home lights, etc,etc...

On my A6 I did lose "Battery Meter" & "Instrument Cluster" menus in "Car" menu but by VCDS you can re-enable those...

The MMI update does all MMI related modules (Radio unit, AMP, etc) ...
 
i dare not try that.......too technical for me,and if it goes wrong im done!

Just a thort,is it good to get my battery tested by car spares/auto shop.......audi fitted a new one in may 2011 and if im right all audi parts carry a 2 year warranty?..........maybe its just a battery issue?
 
You can do measuring blocks in the battery regulation module...

Link:- Audi Portal: ECU Diagnostic . Audi Q7 4L (2007- ) . Energy Manager J644

SOC (State of charge) is a good one top look at...

With the MVB's in above you can also see if the alternator is functioning correctly on charging,etc...

Yes genuine Audi parts have 2 yrs warranty... with VAS they can see even more battery data/history than what VCDS can...

For MMI update they may charge an hours labour... highlight the TPI/TSB then they will do it without diags charge possibly...

I've seen posts where they replace the battery first then when customer still has issue then they do MMI update...

One guy had an alternator changed, then battery then finally they did MMI update as neither the first two bits of work fix issue...

They did the update for free after they had charged for the alternator & battery...

Dont know if ive done these right,id just started the car and it was at idle.........when i switched the car off
and with ignition on only the battery voltage started drop to 1185 but as i didnt want accidently kill the battery,i unplugged vcds.

The first picture is when car was off and only ignition was on.

In one of your photos SOC=80% so I would say battery is fine...

You can press "PRT SC" on keyboard and then open paint and paste a screenshot and then edit/upload...

I've recently been using this Link:- FastStone Screen Capture - The Best Screen Capture Software

This allows you to capture screen, files are great sizes for uploading to youtube and you get no screen glare,etc,etc :) ...

after parked up for 16 hours,this morning started fine.
 
I had a new battery,coded it and its been ok,checked with vcds today,cars been standing for around 74 hours and atate of charge is 60% battery condition is 90% is that normal?

battery management was activated ...i deleted all codes,now all codes have dissapeared

Hopefully thats sorted it out for you.

SOC so should not be 60% IMO ... battery condition in the MMI is =
Battery condition

The battery condition indicates how efficient the battery is. The efficiency is determined from the battery charge level and the ability to start.

Its not a volts/amps meter...

SOC =

Knowing the amount of energy left in a battery compared with the energy it had when it was full gives the user an indication of how much longer a battery will continue to perform before it needs recharging. Using the analogy of a fuel tank in a car, State of Charge (SOC) estimation is often called the "Gas Gauge" or "Fuel Gauge" function.

The SOC is defined as the available capacity expressed as a percentage of some reference, sometimes its rated capacity but more likely its current (i.e. at the latest charge-discharge cycle) capacity but this ambiguity can lead to confusion and errors. It is not usually an absolute measure in Coulombs, kWh or Ah of the energy left in the battery which would be less confusing.

I had a new battery in Jan 13 ... I do very little miles a day... have plenty of toys in my car... my SOC is 80%+ depending on being stood for several days or none...

Place a multimeter on battery lock car and see if you have a parasitic draw...

Place a multimeter on battery lock car and see if you have a parasitic draw.il see if you can help 1 more time,i drove car to work on a 22 mile run
there and back,then scanned it,these are results.....battery state of charge
was 80% battery condition 100%

drove the car to work today,a stright road to work with a few stop/traffic,and 11 miles each way,i checked state of charge and it was 80% and battery condition was 100%........then i did a full scan and here are the results (tried to clear them they pop right back up)

I drove the car to work today,a stright road to work with a few stop/traffic,and 11 miles each way,i checked state of charge and it was 80% and battery condition was 100%........then i did a full scan and here are the results (tried to clear them they pop right back up)
 
i wonder sometimes....if what i read has some truth?.............MMI upgrade? if that could help?
 
Your MMI version is 4220

Most info seems to suggest a drain occurring...

You also have a AUX Heater... IIRC I've read some info within some A8 posts relating to draining with this, will dig it up...

Get a multimeter on battery and monitor if drain happening after locking car up... parasitic draw ...
 
thanks mate,i dont know how use multimeter,but if it is pointing to drainage,id really appreciate it if you would dig up the cause,thanks.

how do these aux heaters work? also in 61-battery regulation, in measure blocks group 007 ive got this if it means anything

ch1..... 0-19.......ch2.(count) 1 ...... ch3........Not ok...........ch4.......ok
 
Ive updated the mmi using 3 genuine audi cd's ,replaced battery and coded it,first few days (7 days) battery is still fully charged now after a couple of months sometimes it will still be fully charged after 4 or 5 days,i could go and check now and it could be fully charged(thats after the cars been sitting for 4 days) i could go to it tomorrow and it will show only 10% charge. i get a fault 01699 tailgate lock/hatch could this drain it?
it works ok just get the flickering when the tailgate opens.
Have i missed something? do i need to get rid of battery history or something?

Hi :-}
firsy check the quiescent current consumption
http://uberlame.com/a6_tsb/Electrical/Battery Dead (2).pdf
check number in bluetooth ecu{software SW and HW}
the Audi Q7 were mostly damaged bluetooth modules.
 
Make sure that your car does not require a service action to change the software to tailgate.
"do i need to get rid of battery history or something?" YES
I did use current clamps 50 amper {importent} and VAS 5052b .Maximum
quiescent current consumption is 50 MiliAmper !!
You have to close the car and wait about 10 minutes.
Easier way is to read the history of the battery{vas5052b }

or use VCDS and see in these values
Audi Portal: ECU Diagnostic . Audi Q7 4L (2007- ) . Energy Manager J644
 
"do i need to get rid of battery history or something?"
yes
Maximum static current is 50 miliamper!
"
i get a fault 01699 tailgate lock/hatch could this drain it?"
yes
First step -check your car for
recall -tailgate software update.

il do that and get back to you thanks

is there a number i can call you on,if you have 5 minutes at some point to talk me through it????????
if not il try do the 'audi portal' thing

DONT UNDERSTAND THIS: I did use current clamps 50 amper {importent} and VAS 5052b .Maximum quiescent current consumption is 50 MiliAmper !!

On the A6 there is a recall (TSB/TPI) on power tailgate ... will have a nose if one exist/applicable to Q7 ...

So you still have this error...

Make sure that your car does not require a service action to change the software to tailgate.
"do i need to get rid of battery history or something?" YES
I did use current clamps 50 amper {importent} and VAS 5052b .Maximum
quiescent current consumption is 50 MiliAmper !!
You have to close the car and wait about 10 minutes.
Easier way is to read the history of the battery{vas5052b }

or use VCDS and see in these values
Audi Portal: ECU Diagnostic . Audi Q7 4L (2007- ) . Energy Manager J644
 
"DONT UNDERSTAND THIS: I did use current clamps 50 amper {importent} and VAS 5052b .Maximum quiescent current consumption is 50 MiliAmper !!

Sorry :-}
when you close the key remote control car, a few minutes later, when all the ECU are sleeping, quiescent current must not be more than 50 mili-amper.
Each power consumption over 50 miliamper will cause discharge of the battery.


check the battery history, the best vas 5052b.

2006-09-20,22:18:46*0012 hours 00.71 A, quiescent current
2006-09-19,16:37:06*0018 hours 00.70 A, quiescent current
2006-09-19,13:08:12*0000 hours 00.70 A, quiescent current
2006-09-18,17:23:16*0015 hours 00.70 A, quiescent current
2006-09-17,20:53:45*0012 hours 00.71 A, quiescent current
2006-09-17,17:20:20*0001 hours 00.70 A, quiescent current
2006-09-16,22:05:17*0017 hours 00.70 A, quiescent current
2006-09-16,19:47:44*0000 hours 00.70 A, quiescent current
quiescent current over 50 miliamper , 00.70 a in this case, the battery will be discharged
correct current consumption should be max 00.50A ={ 50 miliamper}
 
i have only vcds (vag-com) so cannot check anything else,ive posted some pics regarding the audi portal,if you need more info let me know.

Ive been told ive done all the main things....ive updated mmi.......updated the nav disc,put in new battery and coded it.

Some say the auxilary heater drains the battery?...........any ideas where and which the fuse is so i can pull the fuse see if that stops battery draining.........unless you have any ideas?
 
Go into VCDS, press Applications, press Erase All DTCs.

Do a few ignition cycles and rescan.
