Audi TTS 500 Edition - advice
Steve Q replied to Charlie106's topic in Audi Cars for Sale and Wanted
Have you searched eBay, autotrader and checked the Facebook groups. -
You'd think a loose caliper etc would have been picked up once brake were changed. Could it be a wheel bearing (even though this would be a rumbling sound normally) or a driveshaft issue? I'm assuming tyres have been checked too.
-
Sorry to hear of your situation. I'm assuming you've spoken to your local dealer, the next level.of escalation is Audi customer services.
-
Please keep us posted on how you get on
-
Garage has to fix this foc in the first 30 days after purchase. You could get an alternative opinion from another garage incase the supplying dealer is trying to fob you off.
-
Glad you got sorted 🙂
-
Worth a try. Not sure why not.
-
If it all comes from the same car then you should be ok I think. The only problem is, the mileage for your car would be wrong. In my opinion you'd be better getting it all coded to your current cluster

As the title says, here's a road trip for the brave.
-
Sorry for the delayed reply. I agree with Gareths suggestion.

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂

I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. If diesel it could be glow plugs. Or a cam sensor, crank sensor,
-
I've never heard of that before (ignoring the failing module). I'd recommend an Audi independent specialist might be best. Please keep us posted on how you get on
-
Could it be an imobiliser issue?
-
Nice one, would look forward to seeing it once finished
-
That explains it. They're more susceptible to corrosion than normal painted wheels due to the finish.
-
Glad you caught it in the nick of time
-
In my situation with my A6, swapping the engine also requires the matching ECU and injection pump and then it being coded to the instrument cluster. I'd suspect you'd need something similar
-
Hmm in that case I'd recommend you work through each fault. Also how old is the battery. A failing battery can throw up all sorts of electrical gremlins
-
Oh dear, are they diamond cut alloys by any chance? Glad they're sorting it though.
-
Yep looks about right to me also.
-
They are mainly novelties. As I say the efficiency one would give you an indication if it works as it should give a higher mpg in theory
-
That's not too bad. You going for it?
-
They could be historic. You've done the right thing making a note of them. My advice would now be to clear the codes, drive the car a couple of days and see which, if any fault codes return.
