VASSZACHARIS Posted July 15, 2023 Posted July 15, 2023 I have a very strange problem. I have Audi A3, 1.4 tfsi manual, 2011, engine stalls on a cold start. Nothing on the dashboard seems to be an electrical problem. Vcds scan shows no fault codes. Anyone got the same problem? Any solution?
Steve Q Posted July 18, 2023 Posted July 18, 2023 Could it be an issue with the maf, crank sensor, lambda sensor or cam sensor? I appreciate in theory a code should flag up.

Indeed only on cold start when you switch on the car, after a while car stalls on the red light. It switch on again and works without problem. I am not quite sure if temperature is crucial. It appears to be on summer time as there is very hot here in Greece. This is an empirical notice.
cliffcoggin Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 So the problem is dependant on temperature, which may give a clue to somebody familiar with that engine. Unfortunately I am not and don't know what to suggest.
