My 2012 Audi A6 3.0T has been giving me this issue for the last month and I finally got the codes pulled and cannot find any info on the P1703 code, which is in the Auto Trans section and says Limp Mode due to Control Module Reset. There is also a code P0562 System Voltage Too Low. The car randomly decided to shut off one day as I was pulling out of a driveway. Lost all power, everything dead, couldn't even lock the doors. Then after sitting for about 15 min it started right back up and drove home just fine. Since then it has intermittently done this with varying messages on the dash, sometimes its a message to keep engine speed under 1500, sometimes it says keep engine speed under 4000, today it said check TPMS system, sometimes only the EPC light comes on. Sometimes it shuts off while I'm cruising down the street. The car can sit for a few days and will start right up every time, but when I back out of the driveway and start moving forward it will cut off and then I have to restart. Sometimes there is no issue. It doesn't seem to matter if the car is cold or warm. Temps here are warm/hot this time of year.

A few other things which may or may not help are that I have cleared the DTC's a few times and the Trans code P1703 is the one that keeps coming up and is the only consistent code. Also, there have been a few times where I have left the car for a short period, locked it up and when I get back to the car and unlock it, the radio screen is up and the radio is on. Not sure if that happens when I unlock it or if it pops up on its own. The screen always retracts after I shutoff the car and open the door to leave.

Up until this point the car has been great, I've owned it for just over a year and had to replace the thermostat about 6 months ago. Other than that, no issues. Car now has 61k on it with me putting about 12k of them on. Below is the latest VCDS Self Diagnosis Log. Any help or direction would be appreciated.

Welcome to our forum.

I don't see anything really obvious here, but give that it seems to be associated with a low-voltage condition, the first thing I'd do is to get a volt-meter that plugs into one of your lighter (power outlet) sockets to see if perhaps there's a voltage supply or charging system problem with this car. You can find them on Amazon.com or numerous other sites, e.g.:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00UCEAKYU/

This sure sounds like a bad ground cable or loose connection at battery & especially from block or battery directly to chassis .........

Just a quick update for anyone who has this same issue. This is what it ended up being. The positive cable was shorting and had about burned thru the 150A fuse. Repaired cable and everything works great.

I see it more as a reason to add super capacitor banks on high load circuits & to stop this crap.............

Everyone laughed at me when I used to install the boom boom caps from the crazy sound systems, with a DFM kill wire on wheel of race cars and dismissed it 25 years ago, now who's laughing?

Just adding a unit now on any car helps shed load and saves gas miles/SMOG & since the alternator isn't in a brake mode as much.

Thanks! I didn't know there was a 150 amp fuse anywhere on this car. I'll certainly be looking for it.
