    Also worth checking if any of the suspensions especially shock absorbers are leaking, they have some special type of pressurized hydraulic oil and if any one of shocks are leaking, may be you will experience the same squeaking and cracking noise. Usually suspension runs for good 100k + kms without a hiccup.

    You can call Damas used spare parts: 06 5430032, i used to buy my VW used parts from there and heard some time back that they are going to serve Audi and Porsche used parts too. Never got a chance to check as yet with my Audi...(knock on the wood).

    You cannot, as you its GCC specs car have it per law. Only way to disable is to remove the chime speaker (usually placed behind steering wheel dashboard next to music system). If you do that then no alarm will sound like: indicators clicks, seat belt alarm, door open reminder, headlight on reminder etc....!

    In hard braking at high speed if it jerks, it means an ABS is activating to prevent vehicle from skidding. In softer brake it shudnt. If its doing on softer brakes too, that means something wrong with your ABS thinking process and better get the computer check to see what fauld code is recorded and why. Prefer authorized VAG system check as in general OBD tool you will get code but wont see the full detail of that code.

    ESP and clock off is separate issue. ESP light is on due to stabilizing the car while on slippery surface or loose gravel or while hard pickup or donuts. Its electronic Stability Program suppose to kick on while it sense loss in traction. It also turns full time on when you choose ESP off and override car w/o ESP for some racing stunts etc. Clock must be off due to some fuse failure, check all the fuses and replace the one that is blown off.

    Check for any leaks of brake oil, PSF fluid, coolant on hot engine bay creating the smoke. Check it nicely it could be dangerous if brake oil leaks to hot manifold may cause fire.

    is it dealer's mechanic told or outside guys? Check with your service schedule that after how many km it need to be changed, it need not to be associated with time it is with km.

    Its a crap for taking money out of ur pocket. Since decades ppl using normal air with normal tire and last for 3-5 years easy. Bursting happen if u drive at 20psi at 120kmp for 2 hrs. If tire pressure is checked every week and changed every 3 years - 5 years you will never have bursting tire due to overheating the rubber.

    or duplicate oil too. got once castrol duplicate one since then avoided it any cost. Go for Enoc fully synthetic, they are really nice.

    Better ask dealer to remove it, if they say its illegal to remove here as if in case of accident insurance diagnose the car and see its not active and they wont pay the bills. Then you are screwed. Atleast you know the legal consequences of doing it, if you ask dealer to remove it.

    Some roads are slanted all the way for rain water clearance. But not all roads. Its a clearance wheel alignment issue which is out. Emarat guys can fix this in 100 aed.

    It could be some sensors or relays click. If no problem, dont bother these electronic cars have too much to think and calculate than you and me can imagine. So chill and enjoy.

    an airbag fault light is indicative of a fault with the airbag. the airbag is a safety feature, as we all know. Have you looked into the fault or had it diagnosed/repaired by a garage? It should be looked at by a professional. That said, get the fault looked at and rectified ASAP, as you are endangering yourself and others not doing so. Please just dont reset it w/o looking into fault. ITS RISKY.

    Old Audi is notorious for these electrial issues and in dash lights on of its own. So its ok. Get out of ar when blinkig happen fast, one the indicator bulb is fused, just change that. Nothing serious. Hazard may be getting sticky and its time to change whole hazard switch (its a different issue).

    You need to top up the PSF (Power Steering Fluid). Its in the engine bay, pop the hood and look for small canister near engine saying PSF or having icon of steering on top. It shud have small dipstick to see the level, check if its low. It shud be properly FULL. While pouring more fluid turn the steering full left and add, then do full right and add, this will eliminate having any air bubbles in the line and fill the fluid fully. Do this and im quite sure squeaking will go, if after few days it comes back then you have leak in power steering assembly or hoses or pump. Get it check and get it fixed asap, as its serious.

    rear brake lamps or any lamps when fused keep the circuit open and confuse the AUDI ESP system, its better you check all bulbs shud be working fine.
  24. sami
    AUDI claims it for lifetime but its better to change if you think something seriously is going wrong, many times it cure the problem and keep gearbox healthy.

    It could be rear universal joint rubbing against the aluminum heat shield. It only rubbed the drivetrain torque/shifts in reverse. Make some sspace in heat shield or use the bendable heat shield.
