I have a 2011 A5 that has this periodic issue with no dash lights no power at all and won’t start or crank. Every so often I can hear what sounds like arching/sparking under the steering column by my feet. If we slam the trunk, hood and doors most of the time it will start. Your video sounds like the right area of focus. Just wondering if you took the relay and switches apart to check the contacts for burns etc. Has the repair continued to work?

I'm getting back to you about my 2015 Audi Q7 crank/no start. You suggested to check the RPM needle to see if it would work while cranking, and No it didn't move when cranked. You Suggested the crankshaft position sensor fault. I'm considering it, but after the car has sit for a year would I consider checking the fuel pump and injectors.....

@sharpcarco 3 жыл бұрын

Well you obviously want to check everything that doesn’t require spending money before you spend any money….. I am not a super Audi mechanic so I would take what I say just from experience with other vehicles I could be mistaken maybe that needle isn’t even supposed to move when you crank it but I would think that it would I don’t know of any vehicles that don’t. Because the ECM would have to be picking up the RPMs. And it should translate to the dash cluster. Like you said though check everything first if you believe it’s a fuel related problem spray some starting fluid inside the intake and if it starts up then it’s definitely a fuel problem…….

What's the name and part # for this whole module? Seems you can just remove and replace just the module? Am I thinking wrong? I would sincerely appreciate your reply.

@sharpcarco 10 ай бұрын

You cannot remove and replace the module. You can only repair the module…. You can send me the module I can repair the module. But it cannot be replaced because if you replace it, then it Hass to be reprogrammed to the other seven Ecm’s in the vehicle …. Which will cost you about $800 at the Audi dealership. If they will even do it most of the time they won’t do it because the way that they fix them is to replace the whole steering column. It was never intended for it to be repaired by Audi so Audi will sell you and install a whole steering column for the low low price of about $26-$2800. . I know my videos drag out This is certainly one of them. If you’re interested in getting it repaired reach out to me on Facebook send me a DM. To Clays, AC and auto repair

Do you have experience fixing the evap canister on the 07 Q7??

@sharpcarco 4 жыл бұрын

Well no I do not....... but from what I know about fixing evaporators and many other automobiles I would have absolutely no interest in replacing one of them in any Audi.... I say that jokingly with a smile on my face because I fix them quite frequently probably five or six a year. And they are never any fun and I can’t imagine how much fun they would be on an Audi Q7. It would be located under the dash meaning everything would have to be removed and I’ve taken several pieces off of the Audi Dash and haven’t even begun to see the evaporator so I can’t imagine it’s an easy job but I can look it up maybe it only calls for a couple of hours and it’s possible it could be easy but I highly doubt it

@sharpcarco 4 жыл бұрын

In this particular vehicle I was working on a 2007 Q7 But I found out over the past months that it doesn’t matter if you have an a6, a4 It’s pretty much a problem for every single Audi from 2004 to 2011 from what I can tell I fixed them in just about every single model. People send them to me from all over the country

You probably did it wrong. Or broke it well doing it would be my guess that’s what happens when people send me theirs if they already messed it up there’s no fixing it. Sorry wish I had better news.

Unfortunately it generally only last until the next time you turn off the key but sometimes you can get lucky and it will last for a couple days but you never know when you’re going to break down that’s why it needs to be fixed properly

Question is where did your mechanic……. Learn how to do it? I hope you say the clay way but anyway….. it took me a long time to figure it out and before I made this video I don’t think anybody knew how to really do it I talk to some people that I am friends with because of my channel from over in the UK. And one of them sent me a thread because they thought they read something about resetting it. Anyways great to hear it hopefully you will consider repairing it with me. Let me know if I can help thank you

First off, they didn’t make them when I made this video Second with it engaged, it will constantly drain your battery, even if you put that eliminator in there . It’s not the way it was intended to function hack jobs end in problems and these cars got plenty of them. They don’t need more. But hey, to each their own . I’ve definitely urban engineered a few things in my life

Man I'm in a heap of shit all the sudden.fixed my voltage regulator 6 months ago and the day before I did the work all hell broke loose. I was getting to much voltage and now I'm getting intermittent electric issues. One time it did say it was the column but yeah the speedometer isn't moving, the mileage isn't turning , sometimes the back up can works and all kinds bs. Well so that been happening since I fixed the regulator and was looking to see how to fix it and my damn alternator shit the bed again. Man that's like a 1300$ job each time and 2 times in 6 months. I love this car but man I fucking hate it with a passion and I wouldn't own anything else
