Right as I am about to sell my car, all the **** starts happening.

Right now, as of recent, my driver side window motor is starting to go out. Now, when I go to lock my door with the remote or locking it manual... the locks dont respond.

I have had my window motor break on my A4 but never had my locks break like this. Are they related somehow? Any way I can fix this without paying out the ***? Cheers!

 

Any takers?! No one?

 

Just a guess would be the central locking system. The audi's appear to use a air/vac *** system much like the Mercedes that I have worked on. You may have to check the CLS for leaks, cracks disconnected hoses. You may even have to check the door connections themselves, especially if it is just the one door. Dis connect the air hose for the door and hold your finger VERY close to it, and then on the remote lock/unlock the doors... no air, it is further down the line, if there is air, it is in the door mechanism, and you'll have to investigate from there.....But if none of the locks are working stick with CLS but before you do any of that.... check your fuses.

This is all assuming I'm right on the lock/air system in the first place. I only suggest this because the Mercedes I worked on, (2001 SLK) ran on this kind of system.

 

Thats correct ^ Iv seen it posted numerous times so its a fairly common issue. I just pulled the codes on my S4 and got 01367 - Central Locking Pump Run Time Exceeded (Likely Leak), av also noticed my locks moving slowly so mine is about to **** the bed too.
