i’m wondering if any of you can help,
I have a A6 Avant 40 Tdi 2019, over the past week i have been having warnings coming up on my dashboard. The main one being ‘Front parking fault, obstacles may not be detected’. This fault appears most of the time as soon as i put the car into ‘D’. The warning will bleep whenever it feels like it, usually when slowing down for traffic. The sensors do work and i have checked them for damage etc and they appear to be fine.
One day last week i pressed the start button, without starting the engine. And a number of faults appeared, one was ‘Parking Brake Fault’. My parking brake however was not faulty and worked fine.
I had another which was ‘Central Locking fault’. This has been causing me a few issues such as not being able to open my drivers door due to it locking itself, today i stepped out the car and it locked me out of it although i had the key. I had to manually unlock the car by inserting the key behind the handle as it wouldn’t unlock using the fob. Sometimes the fault doesn’t appear but i still have trouble opening my drivers door to exit my vehicle.
These issues all at once make me think its an electrical fault somewhere ? Unless anybody can advise otherwise. Somebody suggested to me that it would be the Control Module that runs the electrics ?
Do i take my car to Audi ? And are they likely to find the problem quickly without trouble. Is this something they have previously recalled for ? Or would it be under warranty ?
Thankyou in advance,
Dylan.
