Have been getting this fault code for a little over 3 weeks, the car started by going into limp mode while doing motorway speeds (120km/h) you could turn it off and back on and it would fix it self. Then it started to do it on nation road speeds (100km/h) turning off an on again was a solution but was guaranteed to fix the fault, yesterday the car went into limp mode doing 30km/h and now is completely dead on power, I have changed the MAF sensor and no improvement, I’m told the code relates to a Turbo actuator fault but just checking if anyone else has had a similar issue before i pursue fixing the turbo. Thanks 🙂

Hello, I have a 2009 3.2L A5 Quattro S-line I am currently stuck with a fault I cannot find any information on at all. I change my battery as the last one finally died and now I have an EPC and Engine Light, as well as none other than one strange fault code in the AUTO HVAC module: 1 Fault Found 01206 - Signal for Duration of Ignition Off Time 008 - Implausible Signal Freeze Frame Fault Status 01101000 Fault Priority 7 Fault Frequency 1 Reset Counter 170 Millage 102156 km Time Indication 0 Date 2009.06.26 Time 00.32.45 Back story My car battery was on its way out, it was an original Audi battery and I could tell it was going because it started to read voltages bellow 12v, and the car was taking longer and longer to start. Yesterday, I started my car once, drove up the road, turn it off for 30 min and then it wouldn’t start but just crank slower and slower each time I tried until eventually it was just clicking. Then curtain electronics started shutting off one by one. We tried to bump start the car down a hill as we didn’t have jump leads but this didn’t work. So I bought a new battery, put it all in, put key in, Coded it on VCDS by changing 1 value on the serial code, thats when I got the EPC light, the engine warning light and this time there was no cracking no starting. That’s when I did the scan and that’s the only fault code that keeps coming up. I tried clearly the codes a couple of times but this didn’t help, I tried a different battery also with no luck. Voltage hasn’t dropped as I’ve been getting 12.3V constantly. All electrics now work fine, When I go to try and start, my dials do the usual sweep and I here an repeated whooshing sound from the rear middle of the car for a couple of seconds and 1 click, from somewhere under the dashboard in the drivers side… and then nothing. Someone said the whooshing sound is probably the pump priming? And that I could have shorted something when I connected up the car? Someone else said it sounds like my instrument cluster is electronically stoping the signal to my starter? I am really not sure what it may be, perhaps a sensor of some kind? I have visually checked all the fuses in all 4 fuses boxes of my car and they look fine, I am not sure where the starter relays are though and don’t have diagrams to tell me which one it is so Idk how to check those. I am really stumped and I can’t find anyone with the same issue as me, I have search many forums but still can’t find anything, but I thought I’d post here just incase there are people who may know what’s happening. Thanks.

Can anyone help my electric window and electric mirror won't work on my passenger door, central looking works also at same time warning on dash that foglight is out but its work thanks

Hi, I have had issues with my steering lock since purchasing the car. Over 2 years ago. Also had issues with the key getting stuck in the past. now the key won't turn at all. I have 2 keys and both are in good condition. I have had a quote and he said I need to replace the cylinder and he said he will get the key to turn. I want to make sure he is not over charging me. Roughly £240 for mobile visit. Would this be about right? Many thanks
