Owner of Audi A3 2006 2. 0tfsi. Recently got the problem with the engine check light. Engine check light indicates that something is wrong with the fuel system leak. The car was originally created for us, but its now active in europe. Already seen some car repair centers, but none could fix the engine check problem. Today, I read information from official Audi sites. "fuel system, gasoline:storage:tank assembly recall' engine check light showed up when I was driving highway, first, computer told me to close fuel cap, which was fully closed, after fuel cap logo went away, engine check light started to blinking and the motor started to shake badly and I needed to do emergency stop. I think its not safe to drive around when engine check light still shows up.

Traveling at speed on the interstate when the glow plug light warning indicator started flashing on the dash. Car instantly became inoperable. Luckily was approaching an exit and attempted to exit the interstate. The car died on the ramp and would not restart. Called a tow truck to haul the car to Audi of lexington. Service examined the vehicle the next morning. To my witness, the fuel filter canister and the top side of the high pressure fuel pump appeared to be full of metal. The service required is a complete fuel system replacement from the injectors all the way to the tank.

Car stalled due to debris clogging the fuel line and fuel could not get to the engine. I am told cavitation occurred, resulting in metal shards damaging the fuel delivery system. Entire fuel system needed replacement after the tank. Dealer challenged warranty coverage for the $10k repair, saying the standard service on the fuel filter did not appear to have been performed. The warranty goes to 50k miles, car was at 48. 5k miles. The owner's warranty booklet did not have the same service as the dealer said should have been done--it was a less frequent interval.
