    2012 Audi A3 2.0 TDI

    Unfortunately the car has now developed a fault whilst it wasdoing a DPF regeneration, which it seems to do a lot since the emissionsmodification.

    The “Emission Control System” light has come on and the “EngineManagement System” light is flashing whilst driving, the car is now in limpmode.

    Not sure what to do from here.

    Any one in Bristol Got the ability to read the codes before I take it in to the main dealers

    Cheers in advance

    Does it get up to normal on temp gauge if not drive for about 4 miles in 3rd gear 3000 revs when temp comes up should come out of limp mode

    Hi,

    the temps seem normal, unfortunately the car won't rev to 3k in limp mode.

    Managed to get into the dealers who have confirmed the EGR valve is now faulty.

    I will wait and see how long this lasts.....

    thanks for the response
