Hi -

My P - D has been flashing randomly on my in-dash display. Would this have something to do with my transmission or faulty wiring? My engine has not acted abnormallyand I ran a diagnostic and no fault codes returned on the test. I reset all codes for good measureand have not seen the problem reappear... yet. I've read around and it seems like it could be the TCM,which is not something Iwant toreplace. I know I could more than likely do this myself but it is still a pricey repair.

I recently installed an OEM iPod adapter mand I wonder if some wiring may have been tangled; however, I question that any of the wiring around the radio would be connected/around the transmission wiring.

Maybe something with the tiptronic? Has anyone ever had any problems like this? I have a 2003 (B6) A4 1.8t CVT with less than 45,000k.Any help would be appreciated!

 

When it blinks do the actual letter blink? or are the letter kind of surrounded by a red border that flashes?? If its the border, your lil magnet thing in your shifter console is loose. Pull it apart and reattach it. Let me know...

 

Can you tell me if your problem has been fixed? I am having the same problem and wondered if it's the TCM?

 

Hi,

I have the same problem and you guys mention about the TCM ? what is that ? so what can i do to check or fix this problem..??

thanks

 

He has a CVT...... which it likely the TCM. You need to pull the fault to be sure
