Hello fellow A3 E-tron owners,
My 2017 with 63000 km recently had a check engine light come on. Interestingly, no additional messages or warnings saying what it's about. The car drove just fine and I did not notice anything different.
I used an OBD2 scanner and found the P0A80 code, suggesting the battery pack requires replacement. However, 2 days later the check engine light went away on its own. The code is still stored in the car when scanned but no longer shows the "Permanent, Confirmed" tag, just "Confirmed".
Has anyone experienced a similar issue? I would appreciate any advice on what caused this, and how I should be proceeding with the car. I'm considering going in for a diagnostic at my local Audi dealership but without an active CEL, I'm not sure if they would do anything.
Other relevant information: The battery charges 6/8 bars, most drives I'm getting 3 kWh or less out of the battery, calculated using distance x efficiency data from the trip computer. The estimated range on a full charge without HVAC is about 27km, real range is around 15-18km. With HVAC on estimated range hovers around 21-23, real range achieved is around 11-14km.
