2002 Audi allroad- Battery Problem, Warranty, iPod by drsp511
Mar 16, 2006 (11:18 pm)

My '02 allroad (45k miles, I bought about 6 mos ago) won't start in the following scenarios:
1- Car is not driven for a couple days.
2- If anything is left plugged into the sockets, such as a radar detector, cell phone charger.
3- I added an iPod adaptor (connected via pre-wired cd chager) in rear cargo compartment. This seems to drain the battery as well...
 
These are drawing very little power and I don't have any problems using these devices in other cars...
 
I jump the car to start it and it is fine for a while...
I took it to the dealer and the tested the battery / alternator / electrical system and said that it is all within acceptable limits. I took it home and it continues to happen.
I'm taking back to the dealer tomorrow. I have till the end of the month till my factory warr runs out...
I love this car but don't want to have to jump start it 1/2 the time...
 
Has anyone else had a problem like this?
 
Please advise. Thanks!
 
BTW- Also considering whether or not to buy extended warr...
Any advice here?

I have the same problem with my 2002 A4. After sitting idle for a few days it fails to start. After running a series of diagnostic tests the dealer replaced the battery (which was only 6 months old!). This seemed to fix the problem for a few months, but it is happening again.
 
To drsp511 - Has your problem been fixed?
Thanks.

Allroad Turn Signal Problem by allroad1

After the turn signal shuts off on my 2002 Allroad, there is a constant clicking noise coming from the dash. It appears to be directly behind the hazard button and radio. It clicks very quickly at first and then begins to slow until it stops after a minute or two. Can anyone help me understand what this may be?

I have a 2005 Allroad and find the lights especially on dipped beam poor. I have put in new extra bright bulbs with some improvement. Has anyone any experience with retro fit Bi-Xenon kits. Any help greatly appreciated.

I have a 98 A4 Quattro wagon for a year now, works great but I had the light switch replaced last week got in the car Monday and it wouldn't do anything just click, click, my mechanic replaced the battery. Now the car dies when at a complete stop periodically not consistently. Anyone else have this problem?

I have a 2001 allroad, my blinkers will only blink once or twice then they stop, will not stay on. This happens on both the right and left blinker lights.
Did anyone every have this problem and can you direct me to the fix?

Hello,
I am having the same problem with my allroad. I got a new battery and not it sat for 8 days and was dead. How did you resolve your problem? I'm off warranty so any help would be great so I don't have to waist money paying someone to figure it out.
Thank you.

Hi, did you ever get to the bottom of this fault as my allroad has started to do the same.

No, I just had it in the dealership and they see a draw on the battery but could not find the cause. They need it for a day to research it. I'll let you know what they find.
