hello everyone, just bought myself a 2000 A4 quattro premium pkg with about 140k. I will be lurking the site for information. so far some good information.
One thing i just noticed was the EPC code. Im under warranty so should i tell my dealer asap? Thanks everyone

 

Hey! welcome to the forums

If you are still under warranty you should contact your dealer as the EPC code will eventually lead to larger more expensive fix.

have them run a VAG-COM on the cars computer system to get the error code(s), find out what the code(s) mean, then fix accordingly.

Once again welcome to the forums and don't be afraid to ask questions, have fun!

 

I am still under warranty from the used car sales, it has full warranty incuding AWD and the electrical. I will be going this afternoon to find out. It is not a Audi Dealer, should i be worried? He does have the VAG reader and i am picking one up on monday from a local guy here too. From what i read it was a throttle issue but it could be more. I will have to wait and see this afternoon.

 

If he is not a dealer, make sure he knows his way around cars like this, either with a BMW, volkswagen, or Audi. Just make sure he has a good reputation and knows what he is talking about and you should be okay.

 

figured out that the guy had no clue about Audi's so. He hooked up his Snapon reader with the audi chip and could not find any codes. so i took it upon myself to take it to an Audi dealer next Wed. for a code read and pick up the maintenance history.
