Warning lights on Audi RS4 (2012): Possible causes and experiences with mechanics

Hello, I have a problem with my Audi RS4 (diesel, year 2012, 138901 km on the odometer). The warning lights flicker and one warning light even comes on in the speedometer. I suspect it could be due to the installed vehicle software. Has anyone ever had similar problems and how did it go at the mechanic? My last experience there wasn't so great and I want to be prepared. Thanks in advance!

Hi, I had this problem last time with my 2015 Audi RS6, and it was a bit more serious in my case. The warning lights also flickered and eventually the car stopped working. The mechanics found that it wasn't due to the software, but to a problem with the electrical system. My entire electrical system had to be replaced. It was a major problem, yes. But I haven't had any further problems since then. Hope that helps you a bit.

Hey, thanks for the info. It seems to have been a major problem. Can you remember how much you paid for the repair? Has anything else happened since then, or is your car back to normal? Thanks for your reply.

Hey, sure, I remember it well. I paid €240 for the repair, which involved replacing the engine control unit and then programming it to the vehicle. Expensive, yes, but necessary if the car doesn't want to do what you want it to, right? But I'll tell you, since then my car has been in top shape again and I've had no further problems. Fortunately, the faulty parts in the software were successfully resolved by the mechanic. Have you ever had a similar problem or is everything in good shape with your car?

Thank you very much for your detailed answer. I will probably have to go to the mechanic soon too. I haven't had any problems like this before, but I'll definitely be prepared now. It looks like it will be expensive, but if the car runs again afterwards, it will be worth it. Thanks again for your help!

Good afternoon Since I paid, the full version is still not activated for me license What should I do because I'm already tired of writing to you how long I have to wait for the problems to be solved
