Hi all,
I recieved my Vag-Com terminal yesterday, and plugged it in for the first time today to see what came up. It's instantly repaid it's cost with the single engine code that came up, 17664, which is a failed engine temperature sensor (g62).
This explains why the car has intermittently has been revving it's nuts off from cold startup. Anyway, £2.50 later and a replacement is on it's way from fleabay.
The other sections of the menu returned the following info:
A/T: LINKING ERROR
SRS: NO CODES
ABS: NO CODES
Am I right in thinking that A/T is for Auto Transmissions, hence the 'LINKING ERROR' message on my manual A2?
The ABS fault code sequence is obviously working as the ABS lights come and go off again when it's going through it's paces.
My main problem however is with the climate. When I bought the car the previous owner told me that she'd had the climate looked at by South West Audi in Exeter and that it would cost "over £1000 to fix."
I have very little if no cold air comng out, but no error codes on the handheld. Would I expect to see any codes if there is a genuine fault with the climate control? I'm just wondering whether all it needs is a simple re-gas?
