Code 18152

Post by g164rge » Fri Jan 20, 2012 2:43 pm

Afternoon Folks,

Done a quick scan on the RS6 and it's came up with the following but i've tried to have a squiz on Google but it's not coming back with too much :(

18152 - Tiptronic Recog. Switch - (F189) Short to Ground P1744

Would this be terminal or an easy enough repair, i've read about a possible magnet or to replace the shift cover :?

TIA :thumbs:

Sounds like a minor problem. IIRC you can use a new magnet to fix the problem. IF you take it apart you'll get a better idea of what's come loose. :thumbs:
