Oi Oi Boyos
Had a bit of a nightmare last night and this morning with my A3 2001 1.6...
Wondering if the guru's can look at these symptons and divulge what the feck is going on,
number of faults all occuring within the last 24 hours, im hoping they are all related to the same problem but tbh with the range of faults I got, thats wishful thinking!!!
faults are as follows:-
-ESP light is on
-Engine Temp gauge not working (sits at 0)
-Heating- Turn the heating up full, when the car is in motion (engine reving) the heating is fine, when idleing (at standstill, engine on) the heating temp jus decreases till it is only just warm, air con is working fine. Seems to react with engine temperature in other words.
and this morning:-
Engine managment light came on while on the way to work (crumbs)
Im thinking the heating issue along with the temp gauge not working is relative to either the temp sensor or the thermostat (prob wrong),
I thought ESP would relate to the ABS/traction control etc which is confusing?!? and as for the engine management light coming on this morning I havent got a clue!!
Im an absoloute novice but keen to learn fellas so my apologies if my explanation of faults is a little thin with detail..
hopein the gurus can help, merci beacoup
much love
