No, that's not the same as the issue I had. Mine just had a kind of flat spot around 2000rpm and the revs would waiver a bit around there. All perfect since DJAlix installed the latest software on my ECU back in September! If you haven't already, get a VCDS scan done, which might help pinpoint...

Just PMed you :)

I spoke to Exeter Audi, gave them the TPI number and they said that it wasn't relevant to my car. The best they could do would be to book it in for diagnostics (sounds familiar) and go from there, but they couldn't fit me in until September! I'm actually going to be up near London at the...

Thanks @Tekneq :) I haven't heard anything from @slowcoach3 yet. I emailed Exeter Audi yesterday and their auto responder said that they would get back to me by 10am today at the latest, but I haven't heard back from them yet either... I'm working away for a few days, so hopefully they'll get...

@Tekneq Sorry, I probably should've said - I've got a code reader (which I bought not long after the car to help me diagnose a few electrical issues), so I've checked the software version (5604) which looks very old compared to to what people have been posting on this thread. The full ECU...

Did this cure the problem for you? I bought an A3 3.2 DSG Quattro last year and I've always thought it was a bit funny around 2000rpm and below. All is good with the timing chain, etc., as far as I know, as there are no fault codes showing and no rattle. I'm in Tavistock, so if Exeter Audi can...

It's showing an immobiliser issue, because the immobiliser control module is integrated into the instrument cluster. I've had other errors too, which all point to the cluster. I did another scan today after it had reset again and I have 01317 Control Module in Instrument Cluster (J285) sporadic...

Yeah, I dunno. He may have just thought it was one of those things. I appreciate your thoughts, but I'm looking for advice on fixing it rather than taking it back.

At the end of the day, it's a 13 year old car and a private sale, so little problems are to be expected. For the price I paid, I don't think I got a bad deal, even if I have to spend a bit of time and money sorting these things out.

Hiya, Six week lurker, first time poster here! I recently bought a 2004 A3 3.2 Quattro and it came with a load of little electrical gremlins which the seller forgot / failed to mention. With some assistance from a £27 fault code reader and a local VAG specialist with VCDS, I've sorted most of...
