The Milkman 10 Posted March 17, 2013 Please go gentle if these are stupid questions, I'm normally playing with air-cooleds not these technical water pumpers! The battery died on my VR last week, (I'm assuming it was a mix of not being used regularly for a year or so, then trouble starting followed by a big freeze). Fitted a new one today, the alarm started screaming as soon as I connected the positive, key fob is a bit pants but managed to get it to shut up. Tried starting her and she fires then dies, did a google search and found a couple of threads about it being the alarm/immobiliser/transponder thingy, but can't find out what it looks like or where it is (need to know where to squirt the WD40). Any ideas please? Also I notice a part swinging in the wind when I was changing the battery, it's in the picture with the Audi symbol on it. Any ideas where it should be or what it is please? ---------- Post added at 5:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 5:19 PM ---------- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robrado974 1 Posted March 17, 2013 The part that is hanging is the traction control relay , not that it does much , it was supposed to give traction up to a certain speed . It clips on to the abs unit , which is under your header tank . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
