Hello,
I need some help. My RS6 has been parked for about 2 years. My alternator died right at around 70k miles (timing belt time) and I procrastinated because I did the 35k service and didn’t enjoy it. So now I’m motivated to get her going again, put in a fresh battery and turn the key and nothing. Everything electrical seems to work but the starter doesn’t even engage, or click. It’s not the immobilizer, the key is fine and that light goes off. I’m thinking I may have caused this, at one point I had to move the car and just shifted it to neutral to push it out of the way without the key in the ignition. Could I have damaged the auto transmission range switch or maybe the ignition interlock cable? If it’s not that is there a relay that could be the culprit? I’d appreciate any insight or experience anyone may have had with similar problems. There are no codes that that would seem connected to this problem.
Thanks
