Proper weird huh!

Especially as it came up with two on Sunday (6&8) then after resetting codes and restarting a few times the car ran fine for another 20 or so miles, then when it came back 5,6,8 went down!

Ho hum, here's to hoping nothing more comes up!

Last year when a coilpack went down on my 3.7MPI, after a quick phone call to Poole Audi all eight were replaced free of charge the following day.

Mine were FOC because my 2004 had missed a replacement campaign, I wonder if there was similar for the FSI engine.

My car has Audi extended warranty until April this year so I would have hoped that if something like that affected this car they would have changed it (especially as the last owner was paying £1650 a year for the warranty!!!)

Well that didn't last long.

P0024 code came back after 15 miles. Called garage back up and he'd already ordered the sensor that he said was covered in oil and probably wouldn't last long. Arrives Tuesday so will get it fitted and back to normal then hopefully.

Still runningi absolutely fine though which is a relief!
