Hi,
Been loving our new (to us) A2 1.4 petrol, but yesterday the EML came on and it was clearly only running on 2/3 cylinders. My cheapo scanner reported various misfires on codes P0300, P0302 & P0303.
The next morning it turned over but wouldn't start. I called the AA and they said the ignition was fine, but diagnosed that power to the injectors was fine, but no there was no pulse/signal for them to actually fire - he suspected an issue with the ECU, particularly as it appeared to shut down every time he tried to reset a particular code (P1582 - Throttle valve (TV) control unit).
This was as far as they could take it and recommended booking it into a dealer/specialist and offer relay.
So, the cars booked in, but in the mean time, I'm asking if this is familiar to anyone, and what do you think the issue/fix could be?
Many thanks, Tony
