P0597 help

Post by watts6087 » Sun Jan 13, 2019 8:12 pm

Hi all it’s been a while since I posted on here. Rs6 c7 2013 mapped by litchfeild stage 1. Not had any trouble in 2 years but now and again the engine light comes on and fault code is p0597. This only happened when the car is cold. Anyone have any ideas? Clear the code and it might stay off for a month or a day. Thanks in advance

Did you try googling it? Plenty of threads about it.

You may have already looked but a quick online code search looks to be engine thermostat fault .

"This is a generic powertrain diagnostic trouble code (DTC), which means it covers all makes/models, 1996-newer. However, specific troubleshooting steps will vary depending on the vehicle. The codes P0597, P0598 and P0599 all refer to an electronically controlled engine thermostat."
