Electro Mechanical Brake warning light
Steve Q replied to cursor-delta0g's topic in Audi A8 (D3) Forum
I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. It'll give you peace of mind at the very least -
No probs. You could btry a second hand unit as a new unit will be very expensive.
-
Well I've learnt something new too. Thanks for that Steve.
-
Is it an led light? If not can it be upgraded to led I wonder.
-
Thanks so much Steve, very interesting story. I'm definitely going to source as many parts as possible now.
-
Sounds like the unit is on the blink. Might be worth getting an auto electrican to take a look
-
Hey Gareth, yep I'm going to start sourcing most parts to store. It just seems the vag group have a better selection for VW than any of their other brands as the cars get older. Regarding mechanical components, I've struggled to source the parts I need new which is definitely a first.

So in light of my sump issue last weekend, it brought the realisation of how scarce some parts are going to become/already have become for the c5. Such as interior trim, electrical items, mechanical items. Anyone else concerned about this? My A6 has been in the family since new and intending to keep it on the road for as long as possible.
-
Just had a look and you're right. As I say they were also fitted to A6 c7 and a7.
-
No probs at all 🙂

Might be worth you getting the battery checked. I found on my 02 A6 before I had a new battery the car would flag up a brake warning when the old battery was low. The airbag warning could be a loose wire under the passenger seat if it's got side, seat or passenger airbags.

I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. I find breakdown firms want to attend less and less these days. I'd definitely say it could be the door lock module.

Might be able to do it via a code reader. However if the car has xenon headlights I think it's compulsory.

Vcds, vagcom ob11.

I think these wheels were fitted to the A4 b5 too. Here's some on eBay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334718707374?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=yVEU8saPRvm&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=IE07kO4STZy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Keep us posted on how you get on 🙂

Headlamp condensation caused indicator to stop working

I'd recommend looking for a second hand unit on eBay. -
They're Audi rotor wheels. Often found on A6 c7 or a7. Not standard for the 8p but look good 👍
-
That's brilliant 😂
-
I'd definitely recommend speaking to a local bodyshop or roof specialist
-
Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 Glad you're happy with your a8. They're lovely cars 👍
-
Definitely still looking great 👍
-
Yep the sump is the lowest point. I may have a water leak too but I think it's the washer bottle.
-
Too true.
