hello all pls could anyone help with the above car.
The problems I'm experiencing on my car it's itermittenly cutting out when coming to a stop at roundabouts/traffic lights or pulling away. When it dies I try turning the key and starting again but it tries to fire up but switching off with the rev needle just dropping to zero, if I'm lucky it starts but more often I'm getting towed away.
I've have a Audi mechanic looking at it now but still struggling to pin point the problem.
At first he found oil contamination in the fuel filter so we decided to change the fuel pump and injector seals but on test driving the fault of intermittently cutting out was still happening.
Now he has sent away the ECU to be checked to see if its faulty.
The car isn't showing any faults codes when connected up to the ECU.
Has anyone else had symptoms like this or know what direction he could start looking into next?
The car has done 68,000 miles and had all the injectors replaced about 3 years ago on a recall.
Would really appreciate if someone could help.
Thank you.
