ESP Light fault and Limp mode fault

Just an update a few weeks after this post I broke down due a broken drive shaft since it has been replaced I have had no re occurrence of the original problem?

a6_er22s_2005 Audi a6 2005 3.2 ESP FAULT INDICATION LIGHT CAME ON AND HAS MY BABY DRIVING MESSED UP. I CANT ACCELERATE AND SHES RUMBLING REAL HARD WHEN I STOP AT LIGHT ..goes away when i turn off but comes back after a couple blocks. Did you ever find out what the problem was ??

This problem is caused by a faulty fuel regulator on the High Pressure fuel pump. I had the same issue and replaced the fuel pump. Was throwing code P2296. Hope this helps.

I have the same problem as yours buddy...thanks for posting the problem...I will do what you did to your car...

My ESP light came on and the car started trembling bad - while idling and accelerating. I put so much money and labor in the issue to later find out it was just bad coil packs. Stupidity enough I skipped a simple step, PLEASE everyone check your packs. After I changed them the issue went away

Hi can you help me on what all did to get your car back running right,because I just had my coil packs done,and problem is still there.i need her on the road.lol

I personally changed the spark plugs and coil packs to NGKs and did a carbon clean and cleaned the throttle body

I had an intermittent ESP Fault Light that would come on and my car would lose power and sputter. If I turned the car off and restarted the problem would go away. Turned out to be bad coils and spark plugs.
