    LImp mode

    Happened to mine last year.Water has built up in the scuttle tray where the ecu and battery sit.This has leaked down behind the brake,throttle,clutch pedals(check up behind for wet carpet) and caused a short on the throttle sensor.My local audi specialist sorted this out for me.

    electrical fault?

    Problem after scan seems to be the relays under the ecu are sitting in water so they are being replaced along with any corroded wiring.The housing will then be drilled to let any further water build up out

    electrical fault?

    My alarm on my a4 avant went off on its own two nights ago and i struggled to reset it.When i got in the car 30 mins later the battery was well flat so i had jumper leads from the wife's van.This morning my wife said my car was making a "funny noise" on the drive.When i looked the engine fan was...

    The front os wing on my b6 avant is starting to rust on the edges.I've looked for second hand ones for ages in akoya silver(ly7h) with no luck but i did see a company on e-bay that supply pre-painted wings for £114 which are not oem but are insurance recommended.The company is Crabblane parts in...

    electric window motor stripped?

    my local audi dealer pretty much confirmed that it was the regulator broken.Looking at one from a breaker in Cardiff on e-bay for £28 but it is off a b6 saloon,will this fit my avant front driver side.

    window regulator

    Priced a new offside front regulator with main dealer - £110.Found one on e-bay from a breaker for £28 but this is off a b6 saloon.When i put in my b6 avant details it said the part was not compatible.Surely these parts should be the same for avant and saloon.

    electric window motor stripped?

    Hi guys,washed my car this afternoon and went to drop the driver side window.It went halfway down and stopped.Turned engine off to reset but all i get is a whirring from the motor and no window movement.Have lifted the window shut by hand for now.Any thoughts would be appreciated.
