New to the forum and sortof new to newer Audis, Had a Audi 90 quattro -89 few years ago... (rather 18years ago) that was a blast to own!! Missing it dearly.
Altho Few weeks ago i bought an Audi Allroad -04 with 2.7t engine, 5 speed AT , with about 20k KM, Absolutely love the car and all to begin with worked great, to about 24h after the purchase,
Air suspension stopped working,
Flexible pipe on exhaust broke apart,
Both hangers on middle exhaust silencer snapped off,
transmission stopped working as intended, would sometime just not change from 1st gear starting from standstill,
Central locking stopped working.
From all of these errors i have changed the compressor for Air suspension AND the distribution block to new ones, Got a fair deal of a complete kit including a new level sensor for front right.
Flexible part is changed to new one and hangers is fixed temporary.
For the transmission i googled around it would be the control unit under passenger floor mat, so i lifted all up to inspect it, it was soaking WET. took it apart, cleaned it as best as i could, and dried the mat over 2 days.
At the same time i inspected the batterytray area just to find it was all good, except all bolts leading there was loose. made some cleaning, torqued all down and checked that of the list.
After dried up all water and installing the control unit i took it for a drive. Worked like a charm! No issues (sofar) on that!! Felt very good tbh!
That's not what i can say about the central locks,. This drives me nuts what the error can be,.
I got suggested to swap the locking mechanism in the door, so i bought a new one and installed, But i have the same issue, It won't work!
From the Central locking master switch (E150) in driver door i can lock the car, but i can't unlock it, to unlock the car i have to force open the doors - triggering the alarm, To stop alarm - remove negative pol from battery
I've teared up the mat just to find it was soaking wet also there... So same procedure as passenger side + removing of the seat started!
Opened the box just to find probably 15 broken wires and electrical tape everywhere with still visible copper wires. Fixed it all up nice and tidy, installed all back together, But same problem. Locking won't work.
The buttons on my key doesn't work either, neither for locking or unlocking..
We have a Launcher scanner at work that i plugged in to read some codes, And also with this i found i could Simulate and test the whole central locking system. And by doing this everything works. All doors lock - unlock during the tests.
Also with the Launcher i could adapt the key to the car, But since the car starts and the key works in ignition - This shouldn't be necessary to do ?
Anyhow The codes i'm getting is as follows.
35 Centrallås
DTC (6)
1.01371
2.01572
3.00668
4.01574
5.01573
6.01134
Most of these codes seems to be related to switch F2, And that's the one i recently changed in drivers door if i'm not mistaken.
Can also mention that when i changed this locking unit i found that the pin going from key lock to the unit is missing. i'm trying to find one so i can install the whole piece as intended. Might this be why i'm having these errors ?
Or do i need to somehow teach/code the car that it has a new unit for making it work ?
Sorry if my english isn't well structured, it's not my native language
