Hi guys,
A quick, and im sure quite easy question for you....the fan is staying on for 3-4 minutes (even if the car has just been ticking over without moving).
I think this is the coolant sensor which needs replacing, from what i have read on here, but the engine management light is also on......would this be connected and hence be part of the same issue?
I know this will be a trip to Audi to check codes etc, but any thoughts?
Cheers in advance,
Danny
Engine Management Light
RE: Engine Management Light
Could be the temp sensor or the fan control unit ..
See if you can find a indi who can plug it in for you ..

The temperature sender is cheap. The fan control unit is expensive

Also, the temp sender won't cause the CEL to come on. I'd be surprised if the fan control unit does, too.
