you're right, the point is to help. not to do ALL the leg work. the archives of this forum are a fantastic tool. most of the codes can be searched and a solution can be found pretty easily.

the point of these forums is to answer questions that you cannot figure out on your own- not to do your homework for you. if you just throw a bunch of questions up and sit back and expect everyone to wade thru your post to make sense of it and do your research for you, then that is a waste of everyone else's time and you wont get very many people responding.

if you spend an extra 10 minutes (so that I dont have to spend 10 minutes) and do whatever legwork for us (like posting what the codes mean with them so i dont have to go google every single one), then we can get right to answering your question. that also shows that you took the time to atleast try to find it on your own and that you actually do need help, and arent just looking for someone to spoon feed you information that is readily available.

i wasnt trying to be a jerk about it, just letting you know how to get better results out of future posts.

i understand that your not trying to be a jerk however i researched the two codes on google and came up with all different meanings, checked in the search box and found only my topic. i dont expect anyone at all to do my homework, but if you have had this same issue your the one im looking to talk to cuz youve already been there and done that. thank you interceptor, i dont understand anything on an audi haha i am a somewhat of mechanic ive done all my own work but i dont know the first thing about this audi lol.

its things like this that **** people off. you need to post the exact codes, not just says its some sort of manufacturer malfunction. there are lots of manufacturer malfunctions! dont say "something to that effect" say "this IS what im getting".

well what do you expect then. if you cant find a pen and a napkin to write 6 numbers down on, what the hell do we have to go off of? redline is right, stuff like this does **** people off. how can you expect an answer without giving us any information about the problem?
