    HELP-00542 G80 needle lift sensor error code

    definitely built into the sensor James,I remember thinking at the time what a dumb idea that was,it would keep going into limp mode,turn it off start it again and it would be ok for a while.

    Big Red christmas Oil Warning

    sumps still got to come off to clean the pick up pipe,and from what i have learned on here you will never get it properly clean,so just as well replace it while the sumps off anyway.can point you in the right direction to the guy who does a lot of my work if you were in the west country.

    Big Red christmas Oil Warning

    2 weeks ago the pump and pick up cost £120, then the cost of the oil and filter,about 5 or 6 hours if you are doing it yourself for the first time,a good audi guy in a workshop on a 4 poster should do it in 3-4 hours,independent garage,say £35-£40 an hour,you would:keule: be looking at £300 to £350.
