need a little help or a lot i mean

Hi John,

The brake issue sounds mechanical but after digging in the parts catalog for an unrelated 2011/2012 S3 inquiry it looks like the molded brake vacuum hoses with check valves, brake boosters and master cylinders vary wildly. My recommendation would be using a VIN based parts resource such as PartsLink24 to compare PR Codes and part numbers with the parts on the car.

I would run the VIN from this car, the donor car and in addition to similar vehicles you may find online with complete scans for comparison. On that note I would do the same with the wiring research related to the start/stop issue. erWin Audi would be your best bet for the wiring diagrams however VW/Audi SSP (s) may be helpful for the Start/Stop system concepts and involved controllers.

Thanks Dana, I've got another issue that is driving me made,
I have a fault code 008852 fuel pressure regulator valve ( N276) p2294-004-open curcuit
This I'd really getting to me, as I want to drive the thing for a test drive, but it just go's into limp, I'm trying to figure this out, can anyone help in tracing this fault, and can anyone tell me where the 2 wires go I no one go's to the ecu , can remember which pin but can't find where the other wire go's so I can see if the is a break in one of the wire, for there to be an open circuit, I've tried and changed over the HPFP with n276 on it but no help at all, please can someone point me in the right direction and also can anyone tell me if there is a relay or fuse that runs this N276" I can't understand the wire diagrams really if I'm honest, thanks guy's O and are there other things that could cause this open circuit , thanks

Found my latest problem turns out I had moved a fuse under bonnet into wrong place

Sounds like you got it sorted but this should help http://forums.ross-tech.com/showthread.php?2496-How-to-read-wiring-diagrams-the-video-(draft)

Edit, Whoops! I didn't realize both were removed so those you tube links won't work ATM .. but feel free to post in that thread if you want an update from Jef on the status.

Had the car out for a drive, I forgot how nice they are, is there any way of finding out if the car has been mapped or had any stage tune on it, ?.thanks

Check how much manifold pressure it's requesting -- MVB 115 should have both requested and actual.

i think that crash sensor is under door card, but i would also check wires in grommet coming from a pillar to door, most of the time they break
