Did you do anything about it? I'm minded to ignore it as the oil temperature doesn't increase and there is no performance drop off. Funnily enough, it worked for 345 miles, then flipped to 60. Then the next morning, drove to the shops as normal and it gradually rose to the 90° position as per...

A correction to my earlier post. When the gauge goes back it is to 60. There is no "0". 60 was the normal position.

This is helpful, thank you. But what happened was the temp gauge showed 90 on the guard for most of the journey. Suddenly it went to 0. Then after half an hour or so, it went back to 90. So it isn't a question of the gauge not working at all, but it appears some intermittent problem. I'll try...

Just by way of follow-up, am pleased to report that that a mechanic must the VAG code reader on it and there was no fault shown. He cleared the fault and disconnected the yellow connector and reconnected it and the light has turned off. Don't know how he reached the yellow connector; it's a...

Hello, During a long drive yesterday (450 miles) I noticed that the water temp gauge, normally showing 90°, was not registering. There were no performance issues and the oil temperature didn't rise above normal. Then after a few minutes, I noticed the water gauge was back to showing 90°. Then...

Merci beaucoup, mon ami!

Thanks for the advice. As we're stuck in France at the moment, going to try and get a local mechanic to try and (a) fix the yellow connector under the passenger's seat (as this seems a likely cause) and (b) clear off the warning light if the connector was the problem. Big issue is that we need...

Ok. Will look around. Thanks.

Not sure where the abs multiplig is. It doesn't connect with any control units. When you plug it in, it powers up, that is, the unit turns on, allowing you to choose language, metric, etc, then says waiting for vehicle, then gives message saying not connected to vehicle.

This is the scanner/tool I bought. It says it's for SRS and will reset lights. If it connects...

Thank you for the reply. I haven't got a pc (which I understand you need for the vag.com. I have an elderly Mac air. From my reading so far, haven't found a Mac version of vag.com. Have I got this wrong?

How easy is it to remove instrument cluster? Removed one from our motorhome and was really easy but not sure on my 1998 A4

Hi, have a 1998 A4 se v6. The airbag light has come on. I bought a Viecar OBD11 scanner to reset the code. The scanner connects to the obd socket in the plug between the seats (next to the rear cigar lighter). It powers up the scanner which after a few seconds gives a message saying it can't...

I've got the same problem but with my 1998 2.4. Trouble is, I bought a obd2 scanner in order to reset the code, but after plugging in the scanner, it won't connect to the car. Any suggestions to what scanner i.e. something earlier than OBD 11 that will connect?

Greetings all, am a longtime Audi owner. On my second one from new. It's a 1998 A4 2.6. It's only done 156,000 miles and is as smooth and quiet as when it was new. However, as it's getting long in the tooth, I need to find answers for what is undoubtedly a wealth of knowledge and expertise on...
