sounds to me like you've got a bunch of problems with this car lol. i think we need to try and sort them out one at a time.

 

ok where should we start?

 

the worst part is im in the middle of lynchburg va with no audi specialists

 

well if anyone needs parts im going to piece thw whole thing out, i think the cars shot

 

SCAN CODES. do not post again until you get them. autozone and places like that let you borrow code readers for free. plug it in, write down the numbers, and post them here. then we have some idea whats going on.

guess what. coolant operating temp is between 185F and 210F. when it is operating normally, it would give you second degree burns. thats why we have temp gauges.

the car probably doesnt have as many problems as you think. you are just misdiagnosing things yourself, making a big deal out of a small unrelated problem, and not listening to anyone else. if you want to fix it, the next post you make should have a list of P-0000 codes. if you want to sell it because finding a ride to autozone is too hard, go nuts.
