Engine swap
If your a2 is anything like my A6 you'll find this tricky. As the ECU, injection pump and instrument cluster all talk to one another to disable the imobiliser. Finding someone who's able to do the electrical coding is difficult. I'm in a similar boat but just wanted a different engine code of the same type of engine fitted. Also I notice your a2 is a 2003 model, cars registered on a 52 plate and later have to meet the emissions standards of the car when new. Where as up to 02 registered cars can meet the emissions standards of the engine rather than the car as long as engine manufacturing date can be confirmed. So I could fit a 1970s rover V8 to my A6 and it would just have to met the 70s emissions. The benefit you'll have is you're looking to fit a more efficient engine than the original.

Going to sound mad but I'd be taking the golf bag and trolley with me to test it for peace of mind!

satnav update
Id be speaking to Audi about this. I remember 3-4 years ago (I think) nissan were selling cars with sat navs that had SD cards from 2016. it was in the media and didnt paint nissan in a good light. Sounds like Audi are doing the same?

MMI Issues......
If you've bought it from a dealer then it's there responsibility to fix this. As you're entitled to a full refund up to the first 30 days of purchase. Yep you can get aftermarket head units

MHEV stop/start
Very interesting. I wonder if the battery was low and connecting the trailer encouraged the car to increase power which is what caused it to reset itself? Just a theory.

Would you buy
If it's an auto check to see if the gearbox oil has been changed. And Quattro system has been serviced on time. Not sure on the schedule for that though

Q3 parking sensors
They should deactivate once trailer plugged into 12 pin socket. Otherwise sensors should work. Assuming it's all been fitted properly then I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. If you need a towbar specialist I'd highly recommend buzz towbars. They sorted the wiring on my ford Kuga daily.

Fuel tank malfunction
Does the replacement unit need coding I wonder? Or could it be an issue with the high pressure fuel pump?
