Re: Aircon fault - high pressure sensor - where is it?

Hmmm... Can't find anything on these forums. A couple of guides elsewhere, although B7, not RS4 specific but hopefully will be similar.

Aircon fault - high pressure sensor - where is it?

Hi My aircon's just stopped working and the Econ light is permanently lit. VCDS came up with the following code : High Pressure Sensor (G65) 07-10 Signal too low - Intermittent So I guess it's either a faulty sensor or a loose connection. However, I can't find its location. Is it something I can che...

Re: TPMS Fault - Antenna for Tire Pressure Monitoring Rear

I think my rear antenna has just packed up, so here are the values on mine currently :

Central - 0.000V
Offset - 1.000V



Anyone know where I can get a replacement antenna from? Is an Audi parts dept my best bet?

Re: 997 Carrera S what car next????

I used to have a 997 Carrera S and changed it for .... a B7 RS4! I had quite a few Porsches before but found the 997 experience rather anodyne. However, I also run a 4.7 Vantage. I think some of the "heresay" comments above are wide of the mark (or the marque!). I've had my Vantage for nearly three ...

Re: In the stealers

Similar thing happened to me a while back, but the dealer said if the fault occurred again and they were able to trace it they'd refund the cost of the "failed" diagnostic. It did happen again, they traced it this time and refunded as promised.

Re: Massive oil leak

Well thats not to bad then mate, i think yours must be the first case iv heard where the engine oil had been dumped. New one cost around £1200. Mine did much the same a few weeks ago. Reversed out of the garage and there was a large black pool on the floor! Unfortunately not under warranty so my po...

Re: A warning about 2 cars I looked at this week.

That white one looks a nightmare! The wrap's beginning to peel (and it was a cheep one in the first place as the door shuts etc. weren't done, just the exterior surfaces).

Re: Newbury Audi - good service

Sweet nice to hear there are still some good ones out there, what did you think of the Q3 ?. The Q3 wasn't bad at all. Went quite well (2.0 TDi I think). It had a full leather interior but some of the non-leather bits were a bit low-rent compared to the higher-end Audis. I had decent space inside f...

Newbury Audi - good service

Plenty of dealer complaint posts so thought I'd post a positive one for once! My RS4 dumped most of its oil on my drive last Thursday - the common oil cooler corrosion issue had obviously caused a major failure! A call to my nearest dealer (Newbury - 20 miles away) and a call to Audi assist, and now...

Re: Centre air vents

Does you wife drive the car? She does that to mine - she hates the air blowing on her face!

But to answer your question - no they're not powered. I can't see how they'd end up like that unless the mechanisms had both worked loose some how.

Re: Goodwood competition results are in

Congrats! You got my vote, but seeing what I drive that's hardly surprising! I look forward to seeing it at Goodwood to get an idea of what mine should look like!
