    Hello Guys,
    I was wondering if you could help me, I just bought an 2014 Audi A6 2.0 just 3 days ago and since my luck is awesome, I'm already having issues with it.
    While driving the car, out of nowhere the glowplug light started flashing and I got a warning saying that the Start/Stop function is unavilable.At the same time the car seems to go into safe mode and instantly looses the turbo. After turning off the car for 5 mins or so, the error goes away and the car is back to normal and in a bit it will show up again.
    The car is still under 3rd party dealership but its around 500km away from where I live, and if the fix for it is reletively small I would prefer to pay out of my pocket or maybe do it myself instead of driving to the dealership. Any would be able to offer me advice what I should do in this case? or direct me to what could be the exact issue ?
    I'm attaching a VCDS log of any error that I managed to get at the time.

    The P2279 air intake leak error is probably what is causing the limp mode. Can the dealership get it fixed nearer to where you live?
    Check for any split hoses and air leaks with the engine running. You should also check ross tech forum for the codes P2279 / P0237 and see what they suggest.

    Mine did this and was at Audi for weeks (warranty thankfully). I had a blocked EGR cooler and then a faulty MAP sensor....but looking at your list of faults I'd start with checking the battery and clearing all the codes just in case because some of the other are "electrical" and the stop-start error is most likely because the battery is weak and/or flat.....
