I would appreciate anybody's help. My cherished, 12 year old, owned from new, A2 1.4 TDI, has developed an unusual fault. When the car is locked there is a constant clicking, as though the car is trying to lock itself all the time, running the battery down (original battery and realise it probably needs replacing). The sound is the same sound that you get when you press the key fob.
It might be completely unrelated but the first problem started a couple of months ago when my interior lights would not go out until I had been driving for about 10 minutes (quite annoying in the dark!). Lights not on when car unattended, only when key in the ignition.
I am going to replace the battery but don't want to put a new battery on until I have solved the problem as presumably the new battery will just end up being drained. I realise that if I took the car to Audi, it would probably cost a fortune, so looking for a DIY solution .......... anybody??
