Sorry to highlight my lack of mechanical knowledge but could anyone advise on how to remedy this?
Drove home from work - sounds rough.
😬🙏
Thanks

So work colleague has this scanner, but none the wiser. 18043?

sure it's just that? because that's a missing connection to AC fault code.

edit: too early to draw conclusions, but how good is the battery?
 
Get yourself a VAG specific scan tool. VCDS Lite is cheapest, if you have a Windows laptop. Under a tenner for a KKL lead, download is free.
Can be challenging to get working, and in it's free version, very limited, but will give you all fault codes from all controllers.
OBD Eleven is a good alternative, and in it's basic form, under £40, as long as you have an Android phone.
I prefer VCDS, but I'm warming to OBD Eleven. The Bluetooth connectivity, (no cable), and the ease of emailing scan results to yourself are very convenient.
Either way if you have an FSI, a VAG specific scan tool, should be your first purchase, even before you buy the car.

I'll get battery checked. Thanks

I did do this once but the laptop died. I'll see if I can find the lead. Thanks
