    Audi A3 2.0 Fsi sport won't start when war or hot

    I seem to have finally got to the bottom of this problem - it was the Camshaft Position Sensor!

    Audi A3 2.0 Fsi sport won't start when war or hot

    I have had a similar problem with my 2003 A3 2.0 FSi (115k) as well (more on than off) for 3 years! It will normally start (roughly) after a couple of turns. I've had the crank (£50) and O2 (£780) sensors replaced with no improvement. The car has also just had a new Audi rear box (£700) and...

    A6 2000 2.7t - won't start when engine semi warm

    Just to clarify, the problem with starting when warm/hot always resolves itself in the same way. On the third turn of the key the engine will fire, run lumpy for a 2-3 seconds then settles down.

    A6 2000 2.7t - won't start when engine semi warm

    I have a similar problem with my 2003 A3 2.0FSi. Anyone know if it is the temperature sensor? Starts from cold fine but as soon as the engine is warm it will take 3 or more turns to fire and runs lumpy for a second or two. I had 3 fault codes recently, the camshaft position sensor, the oxygen...
