engine light just came on out of no where ?
 

everything seems alright, but my engine light just turned on ? anyone have any ideas on how i can figure what might be the problem before i go to audi on upper james to find out, i'm thinking either an 02 sensor (but its pretty low on KM ) or turbo belt

It happens. Could be a million things, no way to know without getting it scanned. You can hopefully find someone in your area with a Vag Com to do it for you without going to the dealer.

well i found out, that one of the hoses have a rip, in it and air is escaping it, hoping thats the problem as thats a quick and cheap fix

The ripped hose is probably the culprit. But it could be the o2 sensor. How many K's are on your car. I currently had a CEL light on because of the 02 sensor and I only have 100K's on my car.

a CEL can be so many different reasons. Either get it vag com'ed or use a ODB II and let us know what the code is.

it was a hose that connects to the manifold, the car only has 93000 KM so it really shouldn't be the O2 sensor

Re: engine light just came on out of no where ?
 

Something is making the Check Engine Light (CEL) come on and when the CEL comes on, a code is stored. Now if, as they say, the light is on and no codes are stored, I would have to guess a bad Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
