    Hey agnar, it’s hard to tell from this video. Some vibration is audible, but it’s impossible to determine what it may be.

    Can you tell if it’s coming from inside the cabin (like, from the dashboard) or somewhere from the engine bay?

    Also, does it vibrate only while you drive, or it does do the same if you rev the engine while parked?

    Thomas_Khoi, based on what you’ve described, it is most likely that the AC dashboard (the panel with all the knobs and displays for the AC system) has died out. And with it not working, you are not able to turn on the AC.

    DaisukeJigen, I assume there is a clicking sound coming from inside the door when you press the ‘down’ button, but the window doesn’t go down. If so, the window mechanism is probably jammed.

    Well, both these SUVs are great vehicles. In the end, the choice comes down to the availability of parts and mechanics experienced with particular brand.

    <p style=”text-align: left;”>That’s an odd one. A typical ‘gremlin’, so to say.</p>
    Have you noticed if this issue was more frequent or prominent with changes in outside temperature?

    I.e. more frequent now in summer than it was during winter.

    This looks like some sort of abrasion. Have you been washing the interior with something aggressive?

    Do you ever need to top up your engine oil between changes?

    Also, if there’s a big leak, you should be able to notice it. Do you see any traces of oil on the engine?

    Hey Dan, that sure sounds like a gearshift linkage issue.

    Hello xcniscool.

    I’ve just noticed your question. Based on what you’ve described, it is very likely that the wiring loom that goes from the A-pillar into the passenger doors is damaged. This does happen in many cars, and it is usually that only several wires get severed or damaged in the initial phases. In your case, that would be the wire powering the speaker and the other one, which sends the signal from your driver’s side window button towards the motor inside the passenger side.

    Does that make sense?

    Cheers,

    Boki

    Hello farayim

    As you’ve already assumed, the DPF filter in your Audi is all clogged up. This happens as soot builds up inside and creates buildups, which more frequently affects vehicles that are often driven on short routes only. In their initial phases, it is possible to get rid of these buildups by several longer and faster drives down the motorway, or by using DFP cleaners.

    However, this will not help with stubborn buildups, which you apparently have. Still, there are two things that may help.

    First, you can try activating a DPF-regeneration procedure. This is only possible using a specialized diagnostic tool (VAG-COM or similar, simple code readers won’t do the trick) and will only work under certain circumstances.

    Other possibility is removing the DPF from the car and sending it to a workshop that has a DPF-cleaning machine (something like this – https://dpf-revival.com/en/)

    Hope that helps!

    Hey kinfopack, could you clarify this a bit?

    Is your engine getting too hot? At which temperature does it run in normal conditions, and on which when under loads (i.e. going uphill for a long time)? This would indicate a problem with a cooling system.

    Or, is the temperature of the air getting into the engine too high? This could be a sign of a clogged intercooler.

    Tnx

    Hey Jojo_ia_41, is the new hose identical to the old one? Can you compare them, especially that top part?

    Hey khp1, can you shift it into the first gear when the engine is turned off?
