I have a faulty Xenon Headlight, it switches on with a blue tint for a few seconds to a minute then flickers and goes off. Any Ideas on if it is Bulb, Ballast (Control Unit) or faulty connection. Bulb is £140 and control Unit is £400 with probably loads of labour to get to it. Any replies appreciated.

I have an unusual fault on my 2006 Audi A6, on a cold morning around 2 degrees C and below the when you start the car the Multi Function steering wheel controls are non functional. As well as that the time on the MMI centre screen freezes displaying the time the car was started but the time on dash continues to work, the Parking sensor display doesn't come up on the MMI screen nor does the Heating controls. If I reboot the MMI (pressing setup, MMI centre button and setup) then it all starts working again. It only happens when it is cold. I have MMI High, Colour DIS, Advanced parking and satnav etc. I have had this fault each winter for the last couple of years and I am taking it into the Dealers soon to try to get it fixed, just incase they scratch their heads (like they did last year), I thought I would ask on here if anyone has seen this or knows the Audi tech well enough to suggest what component might be at fault. Any suggestions gratefully received.

Hi. I'm a newbie with an 05 TDi estate purchased 4 months ago. The computer display inexplicably went faulty last week. The "door open" icon came on when I got into the car and showed when the door was closed (car icon with all doors closed). However, when I switched the ignition on, this car icon remained, instead of the "normal" multifunction display. As soon as I touch the the MFD switch everything reverts to normal as long as I'm driving the car. When I switch off at the end of my journey, the little car icon comes on again. The indicators no longer flash once when I'm locking the car and the little car icon stays on (I'm not sure for how long because by the time I get back to the car it is off, only for the whole story to repeat itself). Any suggestions?

Can anyone help me with this problem? Vehicle stalls when at operating temperature and reverse is selected or when turning left. Vehicle has covered 250,000Km is a 1994 3L. V6 Nissan Maxima sedan unleaded petrol / LPG Venturi system, normally runs sweetly. The car is poorly maintained, largely by myself as I tend to drive it until it stops, then make minimal tweaks and adjustments to get it running OK, repair parts or use second hand were possible. The car is normally run on LPG but the fault also occurs on petrol, currently the petrol injectors are crook and the front engine mount is shot. I feel intimidated by the complex engine management system and am at a loss as to target troubleshooting the current problem. A mechanic has tried a scanner on the electrics, replaced a faulty ignition lead, adjusted the mixture without identification of the problem.
