Hello,
I know that there is many similar threads about this problemacy, but could somebody give me clear answer for this fault ?
"18265 - Load Signal: Error Message from ECU"
ESP light is automatically signalized fault after few miles, when i turn off/on engine ... for short time its going again without any fault. But fault by some times again occured...
What is the root cause?
My car : Audi a6 model 2006, 3.0 tdi, quattro, tiptronic

Looks like something related to battery or electrical load management. Sadly probably only a trip to the dealer will fix it.

Regarding this ESP fault (18265) i found also in this forum some answers, but i dont understand clearly. I only want to know some clear explanation, what could be wrong.
For example
what is that " 1x 078-133-356-T Duct = $15.69 "
For example
Code:
Component: ABS/ESP First comment about it - OUCH!!!!! Here is why; at first it is a COMMON ar problem. That doesn't help much. The following is the original Work report:"Perform diagnosis/Load DTC's from ECM-Intake Boot Split open/Diagnos W/5051 and Mechanical/Faulty Intake Boot/Replace intake Boot and set Throttle readiness codes" Now get ready for this: 1x 078-133-356-T Duct = $15.69..... Labor amount = $222.50 + Taxes + Weather + Date ++++++(just kidding) so they say, I got off "cheap"...and BTW, the Error codes match 100% with my VAG-COM readout. So next time = $15.69 + 1 sixpack. Total was $256.72 Questions? I just need a Cognac...cheers!

078-133-356-T is the part number for a throttle body boot for a 2.7T I have no idea what that would have to do with ESP or battery load management???
