Hey folks,
I have a 2007 A3 2.0 TFSI Sportsback. 80,000.
I have just recently had my ESP fault warning come up, so I bought a cheap fault code reader. I have found the following readings. Can somebody please tell me what the 04642 code means, I can't find it anywhere.
Also if I refit the ABS wheel sensor, do I have to erase the error or does it clear its self from the system on its own. As I also have the ABS controller error too and had a full VAG device history, I don't want to mess anything up for any future work that Audi might offer for free or discount.
