A4 non starter, not cranking
Hi my 1997 a4 has decided to give me grief. My wife reports that she heard strange noises on her way to the shops, after shopping the car would not crank over, I have 12.4 volts at the battery and lights etc work, the car also runs when push started.Is itpossible that this is a starter moter fault and the noise was the starter overrunning or does anyone have any suggestions. troubleshooting suggestions will be greatly appreciated

RE: A4 non starter, not cranking
Sure sounds like a starter motor or battery ground issue. The next time it acts up, tap on the starter solinoid with a hammer, if it magically starts cranking then the starter is bad.
Also remove the battery and check the main ground to see if its tight and the wire isn't frayed.
