I HAVE A 2005.5 AUDI A4 2.0T QUATTRO WHICH HAS ENCOUNTERED A FAILURE OF THE ABS/ESP ELECTRICAL MODULE. THE RESULT IS FAILURE OF THE ESP SYSTEM AND THE ABS SYSTEM. THIS IS THE RESULT OF A FAULTY ELECTRICAL MODULE WHICH MANY FORUMS DESCRIBE AS A FREQUENT OCCURRENCE AND AS A RESULT A REDESIGN BY THE MANUFACTURER. THE AUDI PART IS ~$1900. BASED ON THE EXPERIENCE OF MANY OWNERS AND THE SAFETY IMPLICATIONS I WOULD EXPECT THE MANUFACTURER TO COVER THE COSTS OF CORRECTING THE DEFECT.
CAN'T STAR AND EPC LIGHT ON. *TR
I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE ON 02/11/2012 AND THAT VERY EVENING WHEN I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO USE THE LIGHTS, MY RIGHT LIGHT BEGAN TO FLICKER AND THEN FAILED COMPLETELY. THIS REALLY UNNERVED ME AS I WAS IN AN AREA WITH NO STREET LIGHTS. AND DIDN'T REALLY KNOW WHAT WAS HAPPENING. I INSTINCTIVELY TURNED THE LIGHTS OFF AND THEN ON AGAIN, AND THIS MADE THEM COME BACK ON. UNFORTUNATELY, THIS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES THAT NIGHT. I FEEL THIS IS A BLATANT SAFETY ISSUE ESPECIALLY AS I HAD FAMILY MEMBERS IN MY CAR AND THEIR WELL BEING WAS COMPROMISED. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM VIA THE INTERNET AND IT APPEARS TO BE RAMPANT ON AUDI'S AND THE DEALERSHIPS DON'T EITHER KNOW WHAT TO DO OR DON'T WANT TO DO IT AS FOR THE EXPENSE OF THE PARTS.I SPOKE WITH NO LESS THAN 8 AUDI DEALERSHIPS AROUND THE PA NORTHEAST AND NO ONE...
