Having an issue with my 3.7 petrol/LPG Audi A8. I've included a full scan, and I'm aware of the other issues, but there is one error in particular that I would like to address. That is the '18265 Load Signal' error I'm getting in modules 02 (Trans) and 03 (ABS). Another symptom I'm getting is that the ABS and ESP lights coming on, and the transmission giving a small 'thump' when put into drive. If I clear the codes, the lights go off, and it won't 'thump' going into drive.
I've searched the forum, and although I can find a few scans with the 18265 code in them, that code is never talked about. A Google search has returned a few interesting ones common to some VAG cars, that being a broken wire on the alternator sense cable. Anyone familiar with that, and could this be a possibility with the A8?
Things I've changed over the last few months - all vacuum pipes, fuel pressure regulator, crankcase breather valve, MAF, cleaned all ABS sensors, brake switch. I have also used ELSA to run tests on the ABS sensors, MAF sensor and O2 sensors (the B1S1 comes and goes), and also checked voltages.
Would it be possible to connect a new sensor up to the car, but not install it, just to see if that sorts the 01 (Engine) codes out, as the ABS and ESP lights come on after about 3 miles? If it does. then I can attempt to install it properly?
Finally (for now anyway), what (and how) could I log in real-time for those 3 odd miles until the ABS and ESP lights come on, so that I can try and track down the culprit?
Thanks.
