Hey Guys,
The Workshop that was tickling up my wheel alignment flattened the batt enough they had to jump start the car (found this out after I range them after the lights came on etc) when I picked the car up the Eng light was on, 2 min later the ESP warning came up saying “check owners manual” - then then the car went into a progressive limp mode driving ok at 30MPH but struggled to do 60…
I found one fuse (20Amp) in the rear tunk fuse compartment blown which I changed out, now the ESP warning does not appear but the eng light and limp mode remains on…Im off to get her scanned this morning. Will post codes when I can
Q1 - is it normal for the eng light to pop on after a jump/flattened battery?
Q2 - this limp mode is the major concern, the car literally struggles to go up a hill at 50MPH - im picking its a safety feature - should this clear post a VAG COM clearance of the check eng light?
Q3 - can things be broken/blown from a jump start…?
The car runs, sounds 100% fine until you try and drive the thing…no misses no coughs - just runing at about 15% total power!
