A3car19tdi

Going back to this then, if I was traveling along a flat motorway at a steady 60 for a while , would that causing the vanes an issue and make the light come on? It happened the other night. Would they have been going wrong?

Where's it Steve ?

Where abouts is the boost pressure sensor location on the 09 tdie ? I might swap that out before pulling off the turbo .

Is the turbo easy to remove without stripping half the engine on the A3 1.9tdie. ? 2009 Is it easy enough to open it up and clean it if necessary without damaging it ? ? And put it back on? Never touched a turbo before, stripped a few non TC engine though. . Is there any cleaner worth wile spraying in to it if it's possible ?

Hello. I've had this code pop up the other day on my 120k 1.9tdie A3. 2008 I turned the car off as was in limp and it was went. I was giving it a bit of a shoeing to be fair. Wondered if anything needs a clean out or obvious things to check on it ? Thanks

Following on from this, the next day I went to drive and the brake pedal was solid. Further inspection revealed the vacuum hose had split and come completely off from the vacuum causing loss of brake. Would this had started to cause or have anything to do with the Turbo over boost issue somehow ?

Just following on from this... Later this evening my brake padal has just really got really stiff to press. Are these two this possibly linked ??

Hello all. I have a little Audi A3 8p 2009. 125k or so. 19tdie This morning I had a orange light start flashing and I have scanned and it says p0234 over boost. Any thoughts on what to check, clean in the first instance? I stopped the car and then it disappeared. No other issues at the moment. Any common faults ? Thanks for your help .

Hello Audi people. I have this driver wing mirror on my 8p. It has never worked but the passenger does. I thought I'd pop it off and check the circuit but there are two circuits. One for a dimmer I found out. Which is which please ?

Probably.

Yes it's 4 torx . No, in all honesty, I didnt disconnect the battery. However if that is the stated procedure, best to do that. I didn't encounter any problems though to be honest.

No but whip the seat out. Remove the ratchet bit. and grab one off eBay. Should get one for a tenner or so. A small part breaks inside . Easy fix mate

Far short of getting a new door loom I suppose cut solder and extend where needed. Just thought I'd put a few pictures up incase anyone else has this. Probably explains why the heated mirror stopped working too. Airbag light gone out now (But had to reset with obd2 scanner)

Checked the door sensor. They looked ok as far as that goes. Decided to check the wiring in the rubber booty between the door and chassis........... Oh dear ..Wheres my soldering iron.

I tried a scanner tool and it came up with this. Does it narrow it down in anyone's mind ??

Hello there. I have an a3 2009. 1.9tdi with 120k on it. Yesterday the air bag light came on and stayed when I started up. Just wondered if there are any common faults or things I can try ? Many thanks

Hello. I have this little a3 2009. 1.9tdie. Its had good service and now on 120k. I've had it for 4 years and it's always done this. It has a little very regular shudder when travelling along the motorway at around 60 70 mph. It's like every few seconds there's a little gentle shudder or vibration from the engine I can feel it through the seat and the steering wheel . It's definitely not wheels or the likes because if I dip the clutch and coast along it stops immediately. It doesn't do it under load. Just at a steady constant speed and I can't notice it at high or low speeds. Ring any bells to anyone?. Every else appears fine at th moment.

I've tried all ways and enlisted the help of you tube. It's ridiculous. Just wondered why it wont clear. Never had this before with a car. So wondered if those cables did the trick from eBay .

Anyone know how to turn the spanner light out and the words "service due" when turning off ignition

Hello all I have serviced my a3 2009 tdie . I have reset the oil mileage but am unable to clear the spanner for some reason. And when I stop it politely reminds me to service the car. It appears the spanner will not budge unless anyone can advise a way to get rid of it ? I have tried pushing and pulling the dash buttons but the spanner stays up. The piglet do these work ? eBay cable Thanks all

Never mind . The Jack method has done wonders. Door re levelled !!

But surely would it not be better to loosen the 3 hinge star bolts and lift it a tad ?

Hi all. My front driver door appears to have dropped a little bit. No idea why. I can't see if there is a proper way to adjust it up. Can anyone advise? Thanks

Yes they are normal. Nothing states they are directional. I could try rotating them. It's just strange. I can detect the sound at slow speeds even 10 mph but it's quite a change crossing onto a very smooth surface at 20/30/40mph. It almost virtually dissapears then. Cross Back on to a rough tarmac and it starts howling away.
