Hi,

check the middle fan while the motor ist running (Take care of your fingers). It should not be possible to stop it. If it's possible, the visco cludge is damaged and has to be changed (cost about 150 USD).

Does the smaller fan run when the air condition is started ? If not maybe the aluminium safety device can be broken. It's a small box in the right side of the engine compartment.

When your going through the city does the temparature sink when you enforce higher rpm ? Then the cooling device maybe does not work proper anymore. It's clogged with aluminium oxide then.

But until the auto check system doesn't beep you shouldn't worry too much, as the temperature shown in the display is not very exact (This is what Audi says).

Greetings
Andreas


Möge die Acht mit Euch sein
