UK: 2012 Audi Q5 suddenly stopped
Hi everyone
new in the group, my first Q5 and i love the car. Owner of Audi Q5 Quattro 2.0 TFSI (engine CDNC) 2012 plate . Have problem while driving got message on mmi screen turn engine on , a few minutes later all dash like Christmas tree and car stops, can’t start again, dead. Took to mechanic they diagnose that alternator gone. Changed, the same, then they told some issues on battery, changed new battery and again new alternator. Everything perfect driver the car for two hours around 100 miles, car stopped suddenly the same issue. Take it back, told me after diagnosing few days, that I have some problem on ECU, wrong coding, they can’t fixed. Took it to other garage, been told the battery module is not giving enough signal. Car bin fixed. I got the car yesterday, drove today for couple of miles, trying to park comes message stabilizator errorABS error. Switch it off and that’s it couldn’t started again. Jump started drives ok. Took it back to the mechanic. Now I’m waiting for outcome. Any idea. Much appreciated. Regards all 👍

It could be the somewhere some place drain the battery very much, check the current when it is off.
ANother place I will check is those earth connection.
But first, scan it with VCDS or some good VW scan tools.

Got the car two days ago so far running fine. Apparently the new alternator need to be adapted to ECU, some sort of coding.i do have VCDS but need to fix my laptop
currently using OBDeleven I don’t know if it’s good enough has VAG subscription.Just run scan today only one fault found. I will add screen shots.
