Has anyone had this fault come up? and does anyone know of any resets to get rid of it?

Stafford Audi want £204 for a diagnostic check.

many thanks Glenn

Hello there, just brought my car from Audi dealer just now because of the same fault, lucky I’m in warranty and they will fix this for me, on this occasion they said there is a faulty sensor in the rear bumper, rear bumper need removing to get to that sensor  and they need the car for 5 days to fix this , might take less but it’s booked for 5, so fingers crossed. they need longer than I expected( 5 days..I mean, Jesus that’s a lot of time if having to pay by your own means)  because apparently they need to recalibrate the sensors for lane assist and everything that sensors are designed for, fault can occur as well due to water going in or whatever, so many reasons for the fault. The warning came on when I started the car not long ago, then next time I started the car it was ok, no fault, then again after few days warning came in again, so its an intermittent fault I guess, when the safety system gets teated by the car, booked the car while it’s under warranty last week, since then no warning, it’s absolutely fine, but I still took it to Audi today and they confirmed on their testing it came up a faulty sensor under the rear bumper, sorry for repeating myself. Hope this helps
