You need to see a dealer on this, the car needs to more than likely be on a car lift to reach the latch to release it.

It on the backside of the door in the jam. A small slot in the door with a plastic switch. move it up or down to unlock or lock.

the crank sensor detects engine revolutions so i would,nt have thought it was that by your description of symptoms, as the crank sensor would'nt know if engine was hot,cold or inbetween, have you had the OBD codes read ?

02261 Data Medium (CD/DVD) faulty for satnavdont recognise the 01207 suspect it will be related to the satnav

call the dealer and see if they will give you the code over the phone.usually you have to be at the dealer with the required info to prove you own the car before they willl get the radio code.

take it to the 4s garage, if you want to find out the problem by yourself,you first have some professional tool , there are some diagnostic that always can figure out the problem i can show you: www.xcardiag.com/

Haven't heard of a relay switch for coolant fan. You must be talking about thermoswitch which starts your coolant fan when coolant reaches a certain temperature. Normally it is fitted on the radiator itself

Find someone with a Ross-Tech VAG-COM set-up, you can explore faults on radios with that and sometimes access security / reset. Otherwise it may take a few sessions of leaving it on to come out of safe modeOther option and possibly cheapest is to get it de/recoded

if radio in safe mode look in owners manual in dash if it dont have instruction how to to unlock radio out of safe mode, the audi or volkswagon dealership has to unlock radio.

a part of the ignition system. the battery is good. then check your starter. and it's better to have a shop with scan-tool and technician diagnose what are other problem.

NO THE PROBABLE CAUSE IS A VALVE THAT ADJUSTS THE TURBO PRESSURE!CHECK FOR DTCS FIRST AND LET ME KNOW!!

The following asumes only one wheel is hot and the e-brake is not engaged or possibly hung up from having been left on while the car was not driven for a while. Up north, BMW (Audi ?) brake disks tend to start rusting after about a week of inactivity. For a hung up e-brake, it is sometimes necessary to go back and forth to break the corrosion. A hot wheel usually indicates that the brake pad is dragging (i.e. the brake caliper piston is not returning into the brake caliper bore). A couple of checks: measure the brake disk temperature with a temperature gun on both brake disks of the same axle. If one is much higher, the caliper piston is probably sticking. Can also check for relatively large temperature difference with your hand-just do not touch the metal or you will get burned. Look at the brake disk for evidence of the outline of the brake pad that may have transferred to it indicating a very hot brake disk. Chock the car well, put into neutral with e-brake off, jack up "hot wheel" side and try to spin the tire. If a lot of drag, sticking caliper piston. Caliper replacement or disassembly for a thorough cleaning will probably be required. If this is necessary, you should do both brake disks and pads and consider doing both calipers on that axle depending on age and corrosion condition.

If you have replaced 4 sensors the problem must be somewhere else in the system. Exactly which sensor is it as there are many sensors built into an engine and transmission? You could get a Good Auto electrician to check the vehicle to see if there is another cause of the problem.

crank sensor fault

It could be a few different things.
Did the check engine light come on before it quit running?

Most likely the disc player has a failed loading system, very common, pull it out and have it rebuilt.

No injector relay in this car. Injector pulse is controlled directly from ECU.

200 RPM are you sure?
