This video is another example of the wonderful help you give. Thank you, because after resetting the way you explained my 2012 Q5 reads the oil level correctly! (It was about 1/3 quart too low.)
The NHSA, shouldn't allow these Automobile Companies to make cars without Dip sticks, this is very Dangerous. Imagine driving your car and you cannot check your Fluid manually which is the safest way to check oils and your car can stop because you cannot Add or Check the Oils manually this idea is a fatal accident waiting to happen or have happened because car owners cannot Check their Fluids manually .
I just did this and i thought it worked because it finally gave me an accurate oil level reading but a couple seconds later it told me to drain the oil
Hey naptown how do you bleed the coolant system on the 2013 audi a4 2.0 tfsi? I need a video please just replaced turbo coolant line and have an air lock in the system
Hey I know this video doesn't pertain to my question. But if I have a 2.0tfsi cpmb audi engine head that needs replacement, can I use a Caeb, cdnc, or cpma to replace it or does it have to be the same exact head for everything to work?
Question: did your display show an “open hood” despite the malfunctioning hood switch? (Hard to see in the video). I have always believed that in case an open hood is shown correctly in the display, the hood switch is in good working order. Thanks a lot, I love your videos!
No, it didn't. And as the switch (sensor) is normally closed (NC) it didn't resolve on unplugging it in a "stuck closed" position. For those without an additional Lock, just short the wire on the car-side with e.g. a paperclip. It worked for me - Oil levels normal afterwards. It's specially ugly when your Oil gauge is stuck on the low-warning and beeps every time you turn the car on.
Hey Jared, I got a question about the K04. I bought a used k04 kit but it was missing the bolts for the waste-gate bracket. can I use the bolts from the k03?
@NaptownTuner hey man I have a 2015 Audi A6 and it's having trouble starting from time to time I can hop in it one day and it will start just fine but sometimes I'll hop in it and it will just crank until I play with the gas pedal then it will start up very soon after and the time I decided not to play if the pedal the car was cranking but wouldn't start so I tried playing with the pedal you know like an old carbureted truck And it started what could cause that
I never depend on this. I purchased a dip stick had trouble with it always saying kindly drain s little oil. When in fact the dip stick showed the oil level was spot on.
Hey man just bought a 2012 Audi A4, I don't have the switch on the wiper blade lever to switch options on the dashboard, how do I find out any of the info on the dash board
Hey! i wonder if these fault messages because sensors not resetting after oil change is major problem why these turbo engines fail? i mean people just add 1 liter oil....?? i fixed hood sensor with pliers and cleaning it with CRC product cost no money.
My son bought a 2010 A4 quattro ad I wasn't too happy with his decision to buy an Audi . My research resulted in mostly bad reviews for that year, but luckily we found your videos. You produce informative and easy to follow videos that have saved us a ton of money and time. I really appreciate you and your content. I know you're busy but I would like to know your thoughts on the latest issue my son is having. Gas station had diesel in the 91 octane gas and he drove 45 minutes to work and it was fine. When he left work it would start, run for 10 seconds and die. Audi dealer said engine needs replaced. Does diesel in gas destroy the engine? Thank you for your time.
Why my 2010 Audi A4 2.0T Quattro premium plus fans turn on 100% speed when I go turn my cold engine on in the winter then when I shut the car off you hear a Lil click like a relay sound click then fan slow down & even with me locking the car they stay on for like 3 to 5 mins. Please help naptown or subscribers 🙏
No malfunction here but my Audi when I open the hood won't show me oil level unless ignition is on for about an hour (driving or sitting in the driveway with ignition on). I'm surprised that yours showed up so quickly. When I change oil I just plug in my OBDII scanner and check the oil in it to make sure I got it right where I want it.

It does tell you when it's a quart low. You can also buy aftermarket dipsticks.
BMW started this terrible practice. It’s the dumbest thing ever.

What if my mmi screen doesn’t show anything? It’s just black and what about ambient air temp sensor ?
On my b8.5 drivers door, the fake speaker up by the door mirror has started to rattle a lot. Have you had this issue before?

Can you come fix my Audi in philadelphia

my 2013 takes about 2-3 driving cycles for levels to show up after i’ve opened the hood so i was also confused to see him get it to come up so quickly
What a stupid solution to a problem that did not exist! Nice work on your analysis.
my girls csr got fucked up for this reason, never will own audi for this reason
Awesome! Love your stuff NT!
