A6 quattro

[Paul B]

Hi all, my a6 3.0tdi quattro is the best and worst car I have owned. When engine is hot and I am in traffic it goes into safe mode , ie no power. Stop the car, turn off engine for 2 mins, restart engine and power is reset, restored and working well? Any help how to solve would be greatly appreciated! Regards

Hi Paul...welcome to the Forum

It could be as simple as a faulty coolant temperature sensor but definitely worth getting it scanned to see what fault codes are stored in the memory.

Keep us updated on what you find
