Maybe something completely different but I had exactly the same fault on my old 55 plate a3, (swapped bulb, checked fuses etc), then someone told me to disconnect the battery for 15 minster, did this and hey presto, it worked, might be worth a try.

Hi, have you tried double clicking the open button?.

The larger piece is whats missing off my car and was fitted on my fsi, pretty sure the tfsi should have one.

Mmm. Interesting that as mine doesnt have one and just assumed it had been taken off by previous owner, although my previous car (fsi non turbo) did have one.

Sorry, no sympathy for him, glad your all ok but it could be different next time where he could seriously injure or kill someone, accidents happen but driving unroadworthy cars just hightens the risk of someone being injured.

Very helpful thanks. Time to get mine sorted.

You can use an extension, think what chinnyhill means is you not supposed to use any other power source such as an inverter thats powered from the car, that woukd cause a ground loop.

Cant see it being fuel (unless it was really low) make sure theres enough fuel in, maybe try disconnecting battery for 10 mins to reset ecu.

Statlers sheffield, highly recomended

Lol i never fill the tank, stuff carrying all that extra weight around, im a tight ****, £40.00 increments for me and i get around 200 miles out of it, shell v power btw.

Thankyou mjr. Il get it booked in to garage.

Hi mjr is there any chance you could check that part number, sorry for late reply been busy with work. Old part is 06c905163b. Thankyou.

Thanks guys, il check part number when i get home.

Sorry forgot to say the pinking sound has only started since changing the cam position sensor and the car is 04 2.0 fsi . Cheers

Hi all got a bit of a query . Replaced cam position sensor at weekend, got the part from tps, and heres the problem, when engine is upto temp (90) and change up a gear usually from 2nd to 3rd im hearing a pinking sound this only happens if driving on any sort of incline and only lasts for about...

If its anything like the fsi its a 10/15 min diy job, located just above the oil filter iirc.

Looking good that mate.

Finally had time to try it this morning, run car upto temp, disconnected engine temp sensor, started 1st time 7 out of 10 times (same as before) so looks like a new starter needed. Thanks for your advise.

Will do, thanks again.
