[Jeux]

Hi All,

monday morning, in the car off to work, beeping sound and its the low fuel warning (BTW, an '07 A6 TDi), wh8ich was odd as id fille dup a few days earlier. fuel gauge showing no fuel...

topped up tank with about £20 worth, so plenty in there, gauge still not moved...

any ideas what might be causing this?

car is booked in with Audi for thursday, but would be interesting to hear if anyone else has had this issue...and what it was....

^^^ this

Audi would appear to utilise some sort of chocolate like substance in the construction of this component.

Is this a common fault then?

My warranty runs out in a month, what else should I discover before then?

[Dr G]

Common? Not really, I think we've only changed 2-3 but the same fault each time.
