New Member, Please look at my first Scan!

[SDF1]

Hello Everyone,
I'm new to the forum and here to say hi and ask for your expert help.

Here is my first scan. A lot of errors! I'm seeing some engine faults as well which are scarring me...

My Car is an Audi A4 2009 2.0T Quattro Automatic (6speed) with 64150kms, with the warranty ending at 80,000km.. So I want to fix all the problems before then.


Im having some bad gas millage on my car. I'm getting about 500km on a full tank of 91Octane Shell Gas and I baby the car, 90% highway at 110km/h.

My car is stock.

History of my car
55,000km regular audi maintenance.
At 58,000km i failed the oil consumption test and they put new piston and rings.
At 62,000km I put in new spark plugs.
My Electronic brake gave me a few errors and the Dealer is replacing my EPB switch on Thursday.

Anyone?

[Elwood]

I'm not an expert, but I'm wondering if some of those are transitional. Did you try to clear the codes to see what came back?

I did a clear codes at 62,000km when they put in new spark plugs. That's why it is clean before that date.

Below are the errors that were there before the clear.

IGNITION SWITCH! or MODULE for it.

[SDF1]

At the dealership. I'll let you know what they change.

Currently, PBD switch is going to be changed.

IGNITION SWITCH! or MODULE for it.

Doubt that... On the B8 models the switches do fail quite often but they usually show totally different symptoms. Start with some more basic fault finding and unless you see a true indicator for these codes having a common cause - handle them if they are separate issues.

[Jack@European Parts]

Cool Sebastian, so whats your idea vs " ha ha ha haus, I doubt it?"


Apparently your back and want the helm.

All yours!

Oh, modified, so now they FAIL! At least your still Cool

[SDF1]

Update:
Dealer called me they are replacing the EPB switch and the Alternator.
They are still looking for the other problems now.

[Jack@European Parts]

Sure,..... a sporadic charging condition is also possible for sure.

If this is the case, ask them if the B+ is getting hot back the fuse box and battery.

Inspect the battery for overcharge condition of acid sweat traces and vent caps.

Also re verify tension of battery terminals if this is the case of getting hot.

If any acid is leaking use baking soda to stop the reaction.

Before I brought it in, I took a quick look at the battery. It looked good but I'll tell them to check it out. Thank you.

I also wrote down some readings in the measuring blocks. While the car was on.
Battery Voltage = 12.4 V, Battery Current = 0.0A, Battery Temp = 3C
Battery State of charge (SOC) = 59%, Battery State (shown in MMI) = 70%, Battery Aging (derived fr load) = 88% , Battery Aging (derived fr output) = 122%.
Internal Battery Resistance actual) = 5mOhm, Internal Battery Resistance (stan) = 3.2mOhm, Battery Capacity = 21Ah, Quiescent Voltage = 12.4V

[SDF1]

Update: Dealer called me they changed the alternator and the EPB switch.
They did a scan on the car and they saw only the suspension fault but did not see the two engine faults. They told me we don't know what tool you are using but we can not see those faults. If they are not shown on our system we can not move further.

Any ideas why the Audi's scan can not see those errors?

[Santos@Ross-Tech.com]

Please see the section under "aggressive mode"

http://www.ross-tech.com/vcds/tour/dtc_screen.html

[SDF1]

I went to start the car and the cluster flickered again. I showed the tech and he said it's probably the ignition switch, the garage was closed. So we will see on Monday.

I checked the documentation from the dealer and guess what... They did see the error.
EXACTLY like VCDS I got!! Ross-Tech Cable ROCKS!!





They also did a battery test. Looks like it wasn't getting a charge before.


Looking at the notes it says here
Preformed generator output test off load 12.84V and 12.55V on load. Specific 13.5. Output to low, changing generator. That's probably why they changed the alternator.

[SDF1]

They said they have replaced the main relay and that is what was causing all the other errors.
What about the fuel pump error?

4735 - Fuel Pump
P3044 00 [096] - Short Circuit

Should I erase everything and see if it comes up again when I get the car?

[SDF1]

Just got the car back.
Did a full scan NO Errors

They changed AUD 4H0951253A

Looking up the part#
I find this and this

A/C Relay, Aux Fan Relay.

Could that have been the cause for everything?

I'm going to drive the car for a bit and see if I get any more errors and such.

Anything I should check?

[SDF1]

Spoke to soon...

While driving today the Radio turned OFF and ON (The Screen and Music went off and on) for a second.
The cluster once in a while flickers randomly.

Any ideas?

[SDF1]

My Camera can't capture the flicker on the cluster display but i noticed the door lights also flicker. It's hard to see but to my eyes its as if someone is playing with the brightness lower and higher very quickly.

Here's the video

[SDF1]

!!!! AAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Today I drive the car, all day put about 100km. I park for 30min to get a coffee, come back and the car is DEAD. Won't start. No Power at all, no lights nothing.

I call CAA, they come to jump the car, car turned on. Everything reset (2008 reading on the mmi), car would crank but won't start.
The Alarm started to ring after it failed to turn on.
He took off the jump battery and the car started fine...
W T F!!!

I dropped off the car at the dealership again...
A short?

[Jack@European Parts]

Please consider post #5 even though Sebastian doubts it.

[SDF1]

I asked the dealership and they told me they replaced the main relay which is the iginition switch/module. Part# AUD 4H0951253A.

Is that it? or is it something else?

[Jack@European Parts]

Ahhhh No, that is the blower motor relay.

More like this for the actual switch unit.

8K0-909-131C or D depending on chassis.

& then of course the newer part # could be tried 8K0-907-064CS vs AG.. In VCDS 05

Or

Supply controller 8K0-907-063D

Dealership found corrosion in the CAN Bus Wiring and decided to change the cable.
000979009EA. Looking up the part i find this cable.

Could that have really been the cause of all this?

[Jack@European Parts]

Doubt it. If that wire is corroded what others are?

Is the car a flood.

If the CAN was down you would have errors for messages lost usually.

It is possible though.

If this is the case, I would want to know for sure where the water leaked in, on such a new car.

[SDF1]

Thanks for the heads up. I will talk to the mechanic and ask him to show me when I pick up the car today. I'll take pics and post them.

The car has never been flooded. I live in Montreal Canada. We don't get floods. But what we do get is lots of salt thrown on the road. How did the salt and water get there is the question and what other wires corroded...

[SDF1]

Problem is still there...

Here is what the dealer did. The mechanic wasn't there but here are the notes.



Here is the of the problem
http://youtu.be/HKP27s8pxLA

[SDF1]

Ever since I've gotten the car back Thursday I've erased all the errors and driven it 200kms.
No errors in VCDS.

I'm having two issues.
1) Power Flickering in the LCD and all the electrical bulbs.
http://youtu.be/HKP27s8pxLA
2) The Radio Screen and music Turn off and then back on after a second.
Here is an example
i) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tVGlUQg6oE
ii) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q07uWZ2mcOc
After I leave the car off all night then use it, it usually happens within the first minute. It also happens randomly.

[Jack@European Parts]

Connectivity issue I think.

Have you run an alternate ground strap from battery to body?

I would.

[SDF1]

Car is at the dealership. I just passed by today to check up on them, they have NO CLUE. They are waiting for a response from Audi's Tech line to proceed.

They gave me an A4 2.0T 2012, I took it for a long drive. 350km and I'm not even half tank!!! My A4 2009 2.0T i'm EMPTY by 450km. So I called in and told them to check that out as well, that can't be right.

I'll keep you posted on what they do. Right now they are at a loss. No more errors and new alternator. Still under warranty for another year...

[SDF1]

IGNITION SWITCH! or MODULE for it.

YOU ARE AMAZING!!!!

Just now, the dealership called me and they said they found the problem. It was the Ignition Module!!! Woaw!!! How you figured it out without seeing the car and they couldn't for 2 weeks.

You are the man! Thank you Jack.

I'll get the car tomorrow and see if the problem persists.

[Theresias]

Please post a scan with the fixes done, would be interesting to see what they actually did.

[Jack@European Parts]

BAH ABAH ABHA AHHHHHHHHHHH ! LOL!

"I must vvvvvvvvvverify if he is rrrrrright" Vvvvvwhere is the new scan?
My stubborn German intellect is getting einst besssst of me again.
That dam American.

Everyone has seen the angry German kid on Youtube.

I think we are back to the Wizard.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHFVi...feature=relmfu

Cool, glad it worked out.

[SDF1]

Thank you everyone for your help!
Going to get the car tomorrow, I'll post what they did and check that the issues are gone. Hopefully!

Maybe you can help me out with 3 other issues with my car.

1) When it is cold, the transmission seems to have trouble with 3rd gear. It feels like a jerk going into 3rd and it feels like it is slipping when it comes out of 3rd into 4th.

2) Gas consumption. I'm very light on the gas pedal and I barely reach 450km on a full tank.

3) Noise from driver. When I'm going 90km/h + I hear a wind noise from the driver side.

[Jack@European Parts]

Try recalibrating the DSG basics or request a new trans due to the sporadic error you had which caused potential mechanical damage.

Pump tires up and tune up the heap.

Adjust the doors tighter to hold a better seal. Use plasta gage to determine low spots, or foam glass cleaner with maybe compressed air and look fast at areas of lost surface area during visual inspection.

Good luck!

Or
Ask the WIZARD!

Isn't my car an Auto not a DSG?
Which sporatic error? I'd be super happy if I can get a new tranny or atleast a tranny flush.
