Evening all. The S3 has suddenly lit up with lots of bleeping again. It was in Audi this week and they couldn't find any fault.

ESC fault
Hill hold unavailable
TPMS fault

I remember reading something about this a while ago, is it common?

March 15 car with 1100 miles.

Thanks
 
This sounds like what happens when you disconnect the battery. This happened to me when i disconnected my battery. IF you drive a few hundred yards the faults usually clear.

Nope battery definitely not been disconnected.
 
did the faults clear up after driving a few hundred yards? and also has your trip meter been reset? if they have then this usually means the battery has been disconnected. In your case it sounds like the abs module might be intermittently losing power and flagging those faults. This may be to a loose connection. Or it could just be a faulty abs module. However this is all speculation
 
Mine does that if not driven for a few weeks and battery charge is low. Quick drive will clear it
