Audi A3 2.0 Tdi Sport
hello there,
I've recently just purchased an A3 2.0 TDI Sport 2004 with 111k on the clock.
I've have a few questions/ issues that you might be able to help with.
Is this car on a timing chain or belt? I've heard it could be both.
The self checker button that scrolls through various warnings when you just have the ignition on...are these showing actual faults as some are in red (like the brakes)...as they don't show as actual fault lights on the dash. Is it supposed to say 'OK' after the self check as mine doesn't. Might be down to the boot issue below.
Boot light says on even though it's shut, I've heard this is down to water ingress?
Radio only picks up AM frequencies and barely any FM, is this a common problem?
And finally...
Will disconnecting the battery remove any remaps on the ECU or will these be ok?
Also will this cause it to run a bit rich on petrol (lowering my mpg) until it 're-learns'?
thanks in advance
