At the moment my aby coupe is in an Audi Specialist in Glasgow due to it needing to have a spark-plug helicoiled. I left the car in his hands as I was heading offshore to work and have been keeping up to date via phone calls. I phoned today and he said that the work had been done and he had taken it for a test drive to make sure everything was ok and he said that it was idling in traffic then cut out and wouldn't start again. I've not had any trouble since I got the car with it, so I'm not sure what this means. He hooked it up to the diagnostic equipment and is saying that the ecu isn't allowing him in to 'read' it, or to try and find out what the problem is. Does anyone know what might be causing this, and what's going to need to be done to fix it. The car has an immobiliser that was fitted years ago (1996 I think) but this hasn't given any trouble that I know of.
Sorry for the lack of details, but I am only going on what i have been able to find out over the phone. I'm calling up again later on today to see if he has found anything, but if anyone has an idea it would be most helpful.
Cheers in advance.
