I have an 2000 audi a4 1.8 sometimes it wont start and even has shutdown while driving a few times. When I try to start the car and it doesn't start i notice an EPC light on dash. A friend told me it might be a faulty crankshaft position sensor , does that sound right does anyone else have any suggestions as to what the problem is, thanks for any help

You need to scan the car. The fault light will be logging a fault and is the place to begin diagnosis.
The crankshaft position sensor can cause hot start issues when they start failing and is a good suggestion (and a relatively inexpensive part), but you should see what the computer thinks is wrong first and move forward from there

SOURCE: audi dash lights

If it is the display for the gears flashing, this indicates a fault with the gearbox system, this is more common on multitronic gearbox's

You must remove instrument cluster out of car. After that you can take the instrument cluster screen out.

Audi a6 cut out it turns over but wont start

It sounds like the throttle body position sensor has gone out on you. If you look at the throttle body you will see a small sensor off to one side that has an electrical connector. Ensure it is plugged in. If it is then you may want to replace it. It is quite a simple repair.

I have a 2000 Subaru Outback and recently the ABS light came on while driving out to my parents'. When I got there, I called our mechanic and made an appointment for later in the week to have it...

Here is an idea. Check the connections between the battery and the car's ground and the starter. Then find the ground cable which connects the engine to the car and check the connections there as well. Often times odd ball electrical problems are caused by a faulty ground, especially when there is a starter issue. May help, costs nothing but a few moments of your time, and once in a dozen times it is the problem.
