Have a 2012 Audi A3. Slow crank starts... drives well. It’s been happening for a while. I thought it was the cold and battery being older (2017). Replaced the battery and same issue. Not sure if it correlates with the last oil change.. but the filter I bought wasn’t the same and I reused the filter (longer life). Service light came on a few days ago.. with p0016. First step was change battery. 2nd step considering oils change and filter (even though early) Would like to pursue steps in this video.. considered a new starter... been told it could be timing chain being stretched. I’m trying to avoid that job... seems hassle (not confident) or pricey. Thoughts? Vehicle has 75,000 miles

My skill level is I understand stuff.. do my own oil changes, changed rotors, calipers and pads with buddy; transfer case with buddy, alternator, switched axles on a trailer.. just did glow plugs by self on 2008 f350.. kept old harness. At first it didn’t register the glow plugs, but decided to revisit the job and ensured the plugs were tight, and harness connected.. and works well. Trying to avoid mechanics as I feel to be taken advantage of, plus I enjoy learning and doing the work. Just don’t appreciate wasting time and sometimes the results aren’t what I want.. I realize that’s the learning curve.

So I changed the oil and ensured the plug was sealed... my wife was about to take the vehicle to them and spend $3k.

Hi Samuel, since you're getting more than one error code, we suggest getting your vehicle visually checked by your local mechanic for further diagnosis.
