Is your car still under warranty and stock? If so my first port of call would be the dealers.

If not.....

Do you have VAGCOM/VCDS?

Just in case you don't know what the above is, it is a cable and software that plugs into your on-board diagnostic port to read error codes from the car. This should give you a starting point as to what is wrong with it.

If not ask around the forums for people near you who could help.  :happy2:

Sounds like a dodgy steering wheel controller?  the one under the steering wheel controls all or most of what you have put down there...Can you paste your vag com readings on here and we can make a better judjement has to what it could be.

....And also alert the boffins in the VCDS / VAGCOM area of the site - In fact, wouldn't this thread be better moved there?
