Usually the clicking noise is the starter solenoid not getting enough amps because the battery is shot.
Suggest jump start vehicle then drive it to Autozone. They will test it for free and even install the new battery for free.
They have one of the best battery warranties in the business. Be sure to keep your receipt paperwork in the glove box.

SOURCE: audi a4 engine management light

Go to AutoZone or Advance Auto Parts and have them scan the ECU (they do it for free, where a shop will charge you). They'll give you the codes, and you can post them here. Once you do that, I can help you narrow it down.

SOURCE: car will turn over but not start.97 audi a4 1.8

It sounds like you don't have quite enough juice to start it. Sometimes vehicles will turn over but won't start when battery is low. Have someone jump you with jumper cables and I bet it will start then have your battery tested. If it won't start try giving it a shot of starter fluid as well as jump starting it and this will probably do the trick. If not you will have to have it diagnosed professionally. Good Luck

SOURCE: Car starts ok then cuts out

HI,HANNAH,I SUSPECT YOU HAVE AN IMMOBILIZER PROBLEM.IF THERE IS A ORANGE LIGHT FLASHING ON THE CLUSTER WITH AKEY IN IT THEN IT IS THE IMMOBILIZER.THE PROBLEM WOULD MORE LIKELY BE THE DATA FROM THE KEY IS NOT GETTING TO THE IMMOBILIZER CONTROL UNIT,USUALLY A BAD CONNECTION AT THE READER COIL ON THE IGNITION.YOU MUST CLOSE THE TERMINALS SLIGHTLY AND INSULATE THE WIRING SEPERATELY.ANDY

SOURCE: when i start my car it just cuts off again this happens a few times then works fine, also after a few miles of driving the abs warning light comes on my car is an N reg audi A4 automatic 1.8

Hi, I had the same problem. it is the imoboliser, it reads a code in your key while starting. you need to get the code in the key reprogramed. if that wont work you will need to get a new ignition barrel. Audi dealer will reprogram your key.

2000 Audi A4 1.8Ltr. car cut out whilst pulling away. Upon attempting to re-start the engine, it fires once then cuts out. Elect circuit OK. I suspect possible air/fuel ration. Any opinions?

have scanned for any trouble codes will need to narrow it down to spark or fuel problem --try starting with starter fluid if fires have spark --check and test for fuel issues --no fire and then need to check sensors and ignition

My car cuts out straight after starting up

try fuel injector cleaner, and fuel filter. sounds like trash in the line and after you try few times the dirt moves and allows fuel to flow.

Engine starts but stops straight away no guages seem to be working was fine when last driven

It may be a problem with your key, maybe the chip inside it needs replacing, (as it talks to the engine when you start it,(so to speak)) you can usually check this a key cutting shop, or at an Audi car dealership.

2002 audi a4 v6 cranks but wont start..has fuel and [email protected]

If it has fuel, air and spark, it only needs one more thing to fire,...compression. If it has those four things, in the correct ratio, it MUST fire. If you are 100% sure on the fuel, air and spark issue, start looking at the timing. I would also have the codes read off the ECU. Could you have " thrown " the timing belt?

Audi A4 Electrical Fault

Get it to the dealer or a specialist auto electrician and find out why the engine management light is on. That and the other warning light is telling you there is a significant problem with the engine!! Not dealing with it WILL cost you a LOT of money!!

High Pitched noise

I had a high pitch noise, didn't sound like it came from the "underside". Turns out it was one of fans that had little chips in the blades? My Audi dealer replaced it, and it's fine now.
