Audi A3 - Yaw Sensor
perksy - 21/3/21 at 10:14 PM

Trying to help a work colleague out with his 2008 Audi A3 (Petrol)

He has a warning light on and we've scanned it, it comes up with a Yaw rate sensor fault and having dome some reading-up their famous for these

So far so good, trouble is the internet lists several locations for these sensors on the car

One possibility is behind the radio and another is under the dash near the clutch pedal

don't suppose anyone has done one of these on an Audi A3 before we start pulling it to bits?

Thanks

I have changed them on a few, under the drivers seat, bolted to the floor on 8p models upto 2008my, 2009my onward it's integrated in the abs unit, which is a new unit/recon existing unit.
You could have either on a 2008 registered vehicle, 2009my cars start july/aug onward.
