Hi I bought a low mileage a2 63000mile x reg 1.4 petrol, it has never failed a mot ever in its life. I bought knowing it had a fault as it felt like the power stearing was not working when I dignosised it with my machine before I bought it. The machine read stering angle sensor fault i then though it would need a new sensor as its not been used much in recent years and had also been in a accident many years ago.
I have changed the stering angle sensor myself tonight (new sensor of a 1.6 fsi?) and erased the codes i have then test drove it and the fault has come back on 150yards down the road, when I took the car to my usual auto electrician and asked if he was able to recalibrate the car with the original sensor in he was unable to fix it. I thought it may be because the sensor was faulty or his machine was not compatible.
So like I said I have changed the sensor and tryed fixing it myself but have been unable to can anyone other any advice or help.
Thanks.
