Hi there,

just registered an account here and hoping some of you have experienced something similar before.

I'll start with some background info. After owning this S4 for about 6 months and the milage was at approx. 105 000 km, I intermittently started hearing some sublte strange noises when accelerating. I therefore decided to get the car to my local Audi S/RS specialist repair shop, too see if they could find the culprit.

Before delivering my car, there had never been any no warnings/faults in the dashboard. And stupidly of me, I didn't do a fault code scan either. After a couple of hours the repair shop called and said they suddenly experience a dashboard differential warning whenever they started the car (attached picture below). They said the only thing they had done, was to drive the car into their shop, raise the car to have a look under it + scanning for fault codes. As soon as they lowered the car and started it, that differential warning appeared. I picked up the car later that day.

In the following couple of months, the same repair shop has tried 5-6 times to figure out what's going on, without luck. There's several fault codes visible, but the most interesting ones are (1) "invalid data record" and (2) "no signal/communication". This is what they've tried this far:

  • Replaced the differential ECU
  • Replaced the CAN gateway, as that's the one communicating with the diff ECU
  • Ensured wires between gateway and diff ECU is intact

None of the above has made the fault codes disappear. The repair shop suspects the "0312 - invalid data record" is key to solving the issue, but they don't really know what the underlying issues is, why that fault code is present, or how to fix it.

The only thing I've installed and coded in my self after purchasing the car in late 2015, is a Kufatec Fistune DAB+ tuner. Although that was probably around 6 months before this differential fault started. I'm therefore assuming the DAB tuner has nothing to do with this.

Really hoping someone here has some thoughts or even experience something similar before, I would really appreciate any feedback!

Here's from the last scan I've done:

Has anyone encountered "invalid record" before? Any thoughts at all, I'm out of options here so anything would be valuable.

Have You saved old original modules? Can You connect them back to car and do another one autoscan?

P.S. Maybe this will help a bit.

Thanks so much for replying, really appreciated! :thumbs:

To my knowledge, the differential ECU was stock when this error appeared. Of course I can't guarantee it since this is and aftermarket car.

As briefly mentioned I have mounted a 3rd party DAB module. Would you even consider removing that, or is it completely unlikely that has any effect on this differential error?

When you say "start over" you simply mean performing an auto-scan or should previous errors be deleted first?

Edit: I have the original modules (differential ECU and CAN gateway). They have both been tried installed back in, with no effect sadly :/

Are the original units you installed with a FOD tune?

I'm a VAGCOM noob so gotta ask the dumb question: what's a FOD tune?

The only module I've installed is Fistune DAB, looks like this one: http://www.advanced-incar.co.uk/products/digital-radio-dab/fistune-3g-audi-style-dab-retrofit/ which I enabled with VAGCOM / adaption coding IIRC, I followed this Fistune install instructions.
Does that answer the FOD tune question?

Differential fault warning appeared about 6 months after reotrofitting Fistune DAB, when the repair shop did a differential fault code scan -- possibly clearing previous fault codes as well, they don't remember the details. At that moment, the differential ECU and CAN gateway were stock and had not been touched AFAIK. Both of these two modules are stock Audi modules for this car, not 3rd party or tuned in any way.

Once again, thanks so much for replying! :thumbs:

I assume so, yes. I've got a scan log (with 0 faults) prior to the differential warning that has that exact part number.

The last three missing VIN characters seen in the scan log above is 421 (I'd rather not say the whole VIN in one word).

I tried my best describing the issue and related info in my OP inspired by your awesome solver guide. A couple of follow ups:

- I have not checked fuses or battery yet

Did a new scan after unchecking "0F Digital Radio" for module 19 CAN Gateway / Installation List, unplugging the DAB tuner and clearing DTCs. Comparing it to the scan I have before any issues started (not the one in OP), some things are noticable:

- 09: Cent. Elect coding has changed (I've changed DRL and coming home settings)
- 01: Engine readiness from 0010 0001 to 0000 0000 (cause I didnt start engine after clearing DTCs?)
- 03: ABS Brakes from ok to malfunction
- 19: CAN Gateway from ok to status malfunction
- 22: AWD status from ok to cannot be reached, component from "4 Wheel Drive H10 0025" to "4 Wheel Drive H17 0025" and serial number has changed of course
- All VCIDs has changed, possibly cause I've updated VCDS(?)

At first glance it might seem AWD component changed being the most probable issue here, but there is a couple of things worth mentioning:
- repair shop has replaced AWD module trying to solve this issue (I have to old one)
- most importantly: instrument warning started before repair shop replaced AWD module

Complete scan for reference:

Worth mentioning I get a "VCDS: Re-Code Invalid" warning when pressing the "Save coding" button that says "This appears to be an uninitialized control module; valid WSC/Importer/Equipment data may be required." with three options below, that I'm sure you are familiar with. I've clicked the "Yes" button whenever seeing this, resulting in a dialog confirming the coding was accepted.

P.S. I can upload these logs to github.com, source control makes it a lot easier to see the difference in these logs if that sounds good?

Parts seem to check out please check gateway for com issues and investigate all tracks.

Verify the config of your cable......for WSC, Importer # and tester #

Thanks for double checking the parts installed, good to know the current combo checks out! I'm not knowledgeable enough to know where to start checking the gateway as you suggest, if you've got any articles or relevant forum posts about that, I'd really appreciate it.

The VCDS Tour: Options article recommends leaving WSC, Importer and Equipment as 000s to keep it in stealth mode for individual users. As I haven't had issues with coding not being accepted, would setting WSC etc have any effect?

One does not simply swap control unit and sensors and even fluid in the sport diff. I suggest a good read of SSP 990193 starting page 44, especially page 67.
