been looking and it seems it has to have an AMG battery think he was trying to get away with just charging it up so its going to cost him,plus i phoned the old owner who had had the car from new who told me the car is good and that he didnt use it except to pull his caravan once a year to scotland and back. he said he had to jump start the car to get it to the deales to px it for his new A6 allroader
found a 2amp draw on the battery from a module in the car but not sure which won so still checking
I fitted a new battery in my Q7 around december time from halfords....
Never coded it and the cars seems fine?
Thanks man... I might just fit in a new battery and not code it. Hopefully things won't break.
had the car 5 weeks now,day after i picked it up it had a flat battery.dealer pick it up and it spent 5 days at audi, they found that a module was firing up when switched off and was draining the battery, had softwere update and all seemed fine for 2 weeks. then last week got in the car after work and it wouldnt start,flat battery again. while waiting for RAC and sitting in the car i noticed the lights on the dash kept coming on esp/glow plus/ air bag, for a few seconds and clicking on and off for about 10 mins until the RAc turned up, i showed him but he put it down to the flat battery. had the car back to audi on monday and they found no faults. took the car home and tuesday morning flat again. Rac came out, jump stated me and now the car is back at dealer any one had this or no what to do, but if audi cant fix it its going back and i wont my money back or another car
Did you fixed it yet a4constu?
How to do?
Thanks
car went back to audi and could not find a fault with the car and didnt know what to look for. just by luck they noticed the suspension had moved when parked so they check it and found it was going up and down when parked and said the compressor was coming on and off when parked to maintain the ride hight. well it was all fixed new air bag front n/s leg/battery plus some other bits and bobs grand total £1500.that took a week to fix. had the car back 4 weeks and all was fine. then the battery went flat again last thursday. car went into audi on friday morning and is still there today monday morning so over a week. i will phone them later to see what is happening and if they have sorted it. i told them to fix it and if they cant dont waste there time or mine and they can have it back.will let you know how i get on

There's a battery meter? 😕?? Is that only available via a VCDS mod?
