I went through the same process GD before I placed my order to replace my A3 Sportback with an A5 Sportback 2.0TDi Quattro.
My main reason for staying with Audi? Audi A5 delivery date Mid March 2012, 12 to 14 weeks from order. Range Rover Evoque delivery date Mid September 2012, 36 to 38...
I had this problem about 3 months ago and thought nothing of it as it came and went and nothing had been flagged up at the previous service. Then just over a week ago I had a problem (see thread: A Happy Ending) and the upshot was one of the Injectors had failed. A linked reply flagged up that a...
Thanks - I am glad that the car was sorted BEFORE I read this thread!
It isn't a very nice experience to lose all power almost instantaneously - but better than some of the issues others have had to deal with.
Looking forward to swapping to an A5 Sportback in the near future!
Last wednesday evening I was driving along when the EMS warning light illuminated and 5 seconds later the engine had cut out in the middle of the A45 on the way into Birmingham.
Thankfully I happened to be outside McDonalds and a couple of kind individuals helped push me into the carpark and I...
I'm running an '07 170 TDI DSG Sportback (with Cruise) and during 2010 I averaged 49.8mpg over 13k. Stealer serviced and with the exception of going through tyres a little quicker than I might have expected :-o there have been no major mechanical issues and I've been very happy with both the...
Just finished a full tank of Shell V-Power in my '07 DSG (with cruise) - a varied diet of 5 mile short trips to Birmingham International first thing in the morning - a couple of 30 mile trips on the Motorway at Peak time (M42 speed restrictions) averaging about 52mpg and a long distance return...
Well the car was taken into Beechwood Audi this morning and 4 hours later:
Replaced DPF
Replaced Coolant Sensor
Re-mapped something I didn't quite catch (SMVS?)
All under warrenty.
The light has gone out and on the 30 mile journey home on the M5, M42 with the Cruise set at 70mph and the car...
The car had 3/4 of a tank in when it decided not to start.
No problems since Saturday - UNTIL THIS EVENING!
Leaving work and noticed that the Engine Management Light was still lit. Thankfully 5 mins from the office is Beechwood Audi so popped in there.
Couldn't get anyone to see me, had no...
Thanks - that's exactly what it sounds like.
Left the car for an hour then cranked it for about 10 seconds and just as the warning low oil pressure came on it started.
Drove it straight down to Birmingham Audi and thanks to Gary for having a look at it. He couldn't suggest anything that was...
Sounds like it is trying to start - giving it a rest for a bit, no immobilizer light issue.
It is an ex fleet vehicle and it had an Audi service before it came to me. It is under warranty so if it doesn't start then a call to Audi Roadside Assist and then to the Stealers will be in order...
Good morning all. I took delivery of an '07 plate A3 170 TDi DSG Sportback last Friday - 28k on the clock.
200 miles of driving this week (no problems at all) a mixture of motorway and around home. No problems at all.
This morning I went to start the car, it turned over, didn't catch :-(...
