I bought my car from East Kent Audi. I had a water ingress issue that caused electrical faults and the ECU to be replaced. It was not covered by warranty but they collected the car from London, diagnosed the problem and replaced the carpet and the ECU free of charge as a good will gesture. They...
I live in London and do mostly city driving. IT certainly has sorted itself out now though.
Although i think i am used to the new 170bhp power. Coming from a petrol 1.6 Golf it used to feel impressive. Now i have done a few miles in the A4 i guess i am just used to it. Still love it though...
Update. I took the car into the dealer for them to look a the loss of power issue. And the ****** car seems to have rectified itself. I drove about 60 miles with a combination of city and motorway driving. After a long run on the motorway the power returned. By the time the service technician...
Hi Matt,
Any update on the gearbox issue? I had my car in at the dealer last week and mentioned mine was difficult to get into second when it was cold too. They said it was a known issue. Something to do with the viscosity of the gearbox oil.
So i called the dealer and explained the problem. They have booked me in for a chat and test drive with their senior technician to see what the problem is, but not til the end of the month.
Bez, they replaced the main ECU under the bonnet on the drivers side.
They told me that the ECU for a...
Hi Matt,
I have an 09 with 17k on the clock and i have the same issue. When it is cold it is sometimes difficult to get into second. Exactly the same as you describe. Then it is hard to go back to first unless you are stopped. It all gets better once its warmed up.
Let me know how you get on...
I had a spectacular light show on the driveway. Nicely performed by my car. The fog lights came on, then intermittently the wiper washers, indicators, headlights (high and low beam) and left and right independently.
I called the RAC who came out but couldn't identify the problem. They took the...
Well I just had another go at it. Saying Store with the most ridiculous American accent worked! haha. I think vangoo's method is quicker and more straight forward. I will give that a go for the other numbers.
Hi ScoTTy,
I assume it is the 2G system because when I say help it only gives me the commands available for the phone. It is strange that it understands the save new contact command, all the numbers, back, and cancel no problem. Even with my Aussie accent. My english wife has tried it too and it...
Hi all, i was hoping someone can help me with using the voice command system. I have tried and tried to save a new listing to the phone book but cannot get the system to store the name and number.
With the voice command "store new" it asks for the name, twice. Then the number. It understands the...
Hello all,
I am new to the forum. I just bought an 09 S-Line with 19" RS wheels. I have quite heavy steering at low speed. Feels stiff when parking. I wondered it if it was because of the larger wheels. I test drove another 09 S-line with 18" 5 spoke wheels and it did seem to be a lot lighter...
Hello all,
Just bought myself an 09 A4 S-Line Avant. 2.0TDI 170. Azure Blue with 19" wheels. Half leather trim.
I've only had it a week and living in London haven't had a chance to test it on the open road yet. Cant wait for a road trip.
