Hi all. I've owned my a3 for a month now and put on 1500 miles on it. Today I got in the car and within 5 minutes I realized that the engine was always idling at 1k rpm. Also the stop start was not engaging. It made the car horrible to drive. Pull away was jerky and coming up to a junction annoying as it was always 1k rpm so when clutch was part engaged car would pull. When I eventually got home I found the fans on the car were whirring away.
Is this normal? I've read things about the dpf recycling but surely 1500 miles of mainly motorway driving in the last month shouldn't cause this so far.
Any help or advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
