Hi Guys

Hope you can help, a colleague at work has an 2.0tfsi '56' plate Audi A3 and over the past week or so he has been complaining of an issue with the car, he said it flashes up with the brake error on the dash and then the car shuts down, he is then unable to switch the car back on for about 5 minutes after that.

He has been to Kwik fit and had a brake check, all ok on that front and also had the AA out who have done a diagnostic on the car and could not find any faults, they have towed it to Audi who also say they cannot find any faults.

Has anyone experienced this at all, any help would be much appreciated as I dont want him getting fleeced by Audi through their fault finding process!!

Can anyone help with this one at all please??
 
Thats really weird, Is the owner doing anything in particular when the fault comes up? like braking hard at the time or going over a certain speed?
