    26:00 - P0402 is probably the EGR valve sticking open at a guess... they're meant to recirc exhaust gas back in to the inlet to help lower emissions. Problem is they get clogged up with soot (especially on diesels) and stick open instead of closing when they should. If you can get the valve off, you could clean it up and see if the eml goes away. Might need a new one though depending how far it's gone 😊

I wonder if she has misunderstood the Audi dealer, they've probably told her it has service history UP TO 2016 which is in line with the Audi service schedule. I can't imagine an Audi dealer telling her it has full service history when it clearly hasn't, unless they are so desperate to try and sell her a new one.

    Audi TT. Sounds like you might have dodged a bullet (either the car or the seller or both) not getting involved with that one.

    what's your experience with people/dealers manipulating mileage counters ?

      Can't really happen much now as mot history going back to 2008 is freely available so everyone can check mileage, virtually everyone checks mot/mileage history now.

    when you talk of the cars can you please tell us the year, as I am in aus and even our plates do not tell the year, it would be good for comparison, ps I lived in the uk for 35 yrs the plates have changed since I left.
