Brake light warning came on after brief spirited driving
Hi all.
Did a U-turn very quickly and the traction control light flashed, then under acceleration the brake warning light flashed at me. Then went off. Hasn't come back on. I got home and thought I'd check the level of the fluid. The cap doesn't have a dipstick (nothing is simple). I wondered if VCDS would shed any light on the level or any fault codes. In addition, some history: Recently the N/S/R exterior keyless door lock button stopped working. No biggy. Contact cleaner didn't help. I mention this as there is a central convenience fault logged. When I bought the car a year ago I scanned it on the test drive and the battery regulation fault that is present now, was then. So again, no biggy. The car starts fine. When in the brake module I scanned for faults, there weren't any. I ran an output test (I know now I should t have). DIS went a bit nuts and a fault code 14 I think was logged. I read the procedure for clearing this on Rosstech's site, and tried to clear this, without luck. So, to the scan: Thursday,10,December,2015,16:24:52:32264 VCDS Version: Release 11.11.3 Data version: 20120401 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chassis Type: 4L0 Scan: 01 02 03 05 06 07 08 09 0E 0F 15 16 17 18 19 1E 28 34 36 37 38 42 46 47 4F 52 53 55 56 61 62 67 72 76 77 VIN: WAUZZZ4E59N003044 Mileage: 189500km/117749miles 00-Steering Angle Sensor -- Status: OK 0000 01-Engine -- Status: OK 0000 02-Auto Trans -- Status: OK 0000 03-ABS Brakes -- Status: OK 0000 05-Acc/Start Auth. -- Status: OK 0000 06-Seat Mem.

Could a dicky battery be the cause of random faults? Thanks for reading. John

Can you see the fluid level in the resvoir, the accelerating away quickly and it flashing on does sound a bit like fluid level thing .
With regards to the battery regulation , go into the battery regulation module and go into data blocks look for s.o.c .... state of charge ,with engine running see what the percentage is and post up . |

Thanks for that Lee.
Ok. Fluid was difficult to see, but topped up with Dot 4. The battery SOC is 60.0% could that be because of the weather and because I was running VCDS last night?

If topping the fluid up fixes it bear in mind your brake pads could be getting low or could just be low on fluid for some other reason .
Take car for a good run 30 mins or so and see if state of charge gets any better I had similar on mine , my auxillary heater kept knocking its self off in a morning , my car has had a new Bosch battery over orginal spec , but in the drop down list bosch batterys was not in there , i was getting the quiecent current stage 1 2 3 codes , so battery regulation stopped the aux heater from working .my S O C was 60 % or around that See on the coding at the end the 105A im assuming that means 105 amp hour because thats what was on the orginal battery , so i changed that to 115A ....press do it /ok . It changes the very long code slightly by 1 or 2 figures The state of charge then went up to 90 % after a 10 min drive around it went up to 100 % , my aux heater as worked a treat since |

Very helpful and logical Lee.

After 50 mins driving the SoC is still 60%. I wonder if this would explain why the D3 has been unable to jump start other vehicles...

Some comments about D3s and the Battery stuff ...
Quote:
VAG parts are xxx yyy zzz nn = vehicle subsystem part version 2. The Battery Meter % and its associated SOC values in the ECU that you read out with VCDS is one of the mysteries of life. The ECU calculates it and its value is shown in the MMI display but no-one knows what formula is used to determine it. I think Audi gave up on it, which is why it was removed at one of the MMI updates. After problems, I've seen the number 'stuck' at 10% on my car for three days before it magically returns to 100%, so don't trust it. 3. Best bet for working out the battery SOC is to use a volt meter across the battery. - 100% is 12.6V, 75& is 12.4V, 50% is 12.1V, 25% is 11.9V - all approximate values for 'normal' temperatures - Spring in the UK!
