hello all
Quick sum-up, i am having a crap time with my audi at present.
first problem is a coolant loss which audi stafford pressure tested and said it was not leaking into the cylinder head which gave me great relief however i could not leave my car there for further tests because i need my car for work and they can not give me a courtesy car seeing that im only 19.
so next problem
i was driving home and while over-taking a tractor accelerating hard i lost most power but the car was still driving and keeping speed, it felt like my turbo had gone, at the nearest pull in (being passed by the same tractor, looking like a knoob) i turned the car off and started it again and it pulled with the turbo again and felt slightly better than before.
third problem
today i was about to go to audi to ask afew questions and y car wouldn't start, it just didnt turnover at all, my first thought was the battery was just dead but 7th or 8th attempt it started with abit of throttle persuasion. and now it starts every time. it was -1'c but i waiting for the glow plugs sign.
Can aybody give me some advice or possible thing it could be?
i cant believe my A3 is causing so much hassel i thought it would be a delight to own but however it has been crap so far.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME
