Although we could get power back to the wheels it still cut out so I had a recovery home. This morning the car has worked OK on a 5 mile journey into the office. The AA connected its Crypton computer to the car but no faults were detected.

Car mileage is 24k
Thanks for replying. I do not know if the AA chap specifically checked for a coil pack breakdown. He just connecte dhis crypton to the socket in the drivers foot well and said he had no error messages. I will get it checked by my local garage who are not audi delers but very competent local motor engineers. I will let yu know how we get on !!

JA
