Hi, Am new to the site and as usual have with this sort of thing have a technical problem. After starting my A3 the glow plug light starts flashing. Any one know whats wrong? I've taken it to a dealer and they reset the fault codes but the flashing light came back almost straight the way. Any ideas on what to do next would be gratefuly received. many thanks chris

Did they tell you what the fault codes related to? could be a multitude of things, what year model and engine do you have?

Ask to see the diagnosis log to narrow it down,possible could be as simple as a brake lamp switch but there are so many things it could be.
