Hi I was wondering if anyone can help me. I have owned my A2 for just over a year.. had a few problems with it... but really like the car and do not want to get rid of it (as so many people have told me to) Car A2 2003 1.6FSI
At the moment I have got the following problem Abs Light EPC light and another one which at the moment i can not think for the life of me what it is... well these 3 lights have been coming on over the past few months... called bexley audi who told me not to worry about it its a common problem with the a2 apparantly.. so turn off the engine and restart the lights go off for a little while.. maybe a few weeks when they might come on again. i have had the break light switch changed and this has not really made any diffrence. Also last week the car passed its mot with flying colours... Breaks all ok.. Over the weekend the 3 lights came on and now the EPC light is staying on and the other lights are coming on alot more and when they all come on together the car rolls to a stop.... ( nearly had an accident) so as you can see i cannot drive it at the moment... which is really annoying.. I want the car to be fixed... I have taken the car the various garages including Bexley Audi who totally ripped me off fixed engine misfire only for the same thing to happen again 3 days later... got fixed by another garage only to be told that was not engine misfire at all car was running on 3 cylinders... and the car has never totally been fixed. Could anyone reccommend a garage/ Mechanic in south east london/ Kent area that would have experience in dealing with these cars... I would just like the car to be fixed once and for all.. The last mechanic that looked at the car said that i need to get a throttle body. The last time I had it at bexley audi they gave me a print out of the engine the following codes came up.. but this was before the EPC thing. Anyone have the VAG-COM reader thingy to plug it in to see if any other codes come up in my area?? All help much wanted.
17947- Clutch Pedal Switch- Implausible Signal - Sporadic
17950 - Sender for Throttle Valve Drive- Implausible Signal - Sporadic
17428 - Fuel Pressure Regulation - Value Above Upper Control Limit -Sporadic
I have ordered a clutch pedal switch and a throttle body is this all i would need?
Thank you,
Kerry
