Car starts, then suddenly shuts off. HELP!
Then the problem is when I plow the auto over it starts, but like a one-half a second later it shuts off. There are no alarm lights, but when I took it to the dealership to replace the abs module they said there was malfunction with the ECM and probably needs replacing.
P.Due south. the mpg gauge doesn't read correct and so maybe that would be a clue to something.

You need to scan the ECU for codes

Is your tip loose or come off your turbo? If yous can't tell just try unplugging the MAF and then starting the machine again to see if it shuts off like earlier.

Dos information technology say "SAFE" in a higher place the mileage in the odometer?
If so then something is wrong with the key
The bit inside it might exist busted

Endeavor unplugging your battery for an hour (hit the brakes to drain any current in the system). Sometimes the immob goes funky.

Aforementioned upshot with mine a while dorsum. Fuel pump was the consequence. Go someone to start the car after you take out the injector track w/ injectors and while covering everything so you lot don't brand a mess, run across if fuel squirts out properly and constantly. If and then your fuel pump is probably not the trouble.
When you turn the primal and all lights become on you should hear the fuel pump pressurize the organisation for i/ii a second. I take my boost estimate hooked upward to the fuel pump fuse in the driver'southward foot area and so my heave gauge turns on when the fuel pump primes the organization and so that fashion I tin tell if anything is e'er off...

When y'all turn the fundamental and all lights get on you lot should hear the fuel pump pressurize the system for i/2 a second. I accept my boost gauge hooked up to the fuel pump fuse in the driver'due south pes area so my boost guess turns on when the fuel pump primes the system and then that way I can tell if annihilation is ever off...
I don't remember it'southward the fuel pump, considering subsequently a few try's it runs fine. Probably that immobilizer acting stupid.

My motorcar does the exact matter intermittently. The machine dies after starting and the immobilizer light flashes.
I've learned to tell if volition exercise this past turning the key to ON and waiting 2 or 3 seconds before starting. The calorie-free will wink earlier starting, and I know it will impale the engine.
Correct me if I'thou wrong, but there is a whorl in the ignition that reads the scrap in the key to validate it. If the figurer tin can't validate the primal, it kills the engine. You probably have to replace the coil and/or the ignition lock. Probably has to be programmed to the VIN or the immobilizer or something. I haven't got around to seeing most a prepare as my nearest dealer is 3.5 hours away in the next state.

Correct me if I'm wrong, only in that location is a whorl in the ignition that reads the bit in the key to validate it. If the computer can't validate the key, it kills the engine. Yous probably have to supersede the scroll and/or the ignition lock. Probably has to be programmed to the VIN or the immobilizer or something. I haven't got effectually to seeing about a gear up as my nearest dealer is 3.5 hours away in the adjacent country.
This is exactly what happens/what I exercise. Hopefully my dealer is merely 20 mins away. I'll see well-nigh reprogramming my key or another one.

I'm non certain reprogramming a key will solve it. My vehicle does this with both of my keys. Anyway, if you're able to get a ready from the dealer, would you post back what they concluded up doing? Promise it'due south non expensive to solve.
Thanks

Sounds like you need to get the key repaired with the car. I believe that when the immobilizer doesn't all lucifer up, the car starts for a 2nd and then dies. Y'all could scan it with VCDS to confirm, or find someone local that can browse information technology for you.

My car does this every in one case in a while it will commencement then stall out. Some times once some times up to iii times. But information technology will eventually offset and run perfectly fine. I'm thinking its the fuel pump.
I get no immobilizer light that shows upwards no bank check engine lite or anything like that.

That light does flash subsequently information technology stalls. I judge what I meant was engine calorie-free.

No synchronization betwixt the bit in the key and the car. First, endeavor another key if you have 1.

Could exist a wonky IMMO tag inside the key. That'south the easiest and cheapest possible prepare you could promise for. So I'd recommend you become a spare key made rapido (that means quick in castilian) earlier the affair leaves you stranded. In one case that key completely stops working it's a 1-fashion flatbed to the Audi dealership where yous are at their mercy (they take all your moneys).
You should e'er take a spare central anyhow so you don't end up similar this guy - schlepping a laptop to the top of a mountain in the middle of wintertime to program a new central all by himself. In that case, the owner was sufficiently awesome and made-it-happen with his wallet mostly intact.
