Nut up and buy a $25 "VAG-COM" code reader on ebay instead of using an OBD2 reader.
They can provide a wee bit more info than the OBD2 as it's German specific (Dub/Audi/Skoda).
Plus the reader will provide Trans, Airbag and ABS codes which the basic OBD will not.
The reason I am posting this is the CTS code can be married to a tired thermostat. The VAG COM reader may spit out the thermo as a culprit where the OBD will not.
I think you made a good choice with the A4.
When the fuel pump craps out, don't go cheap. It's a $250 DIY job. Don't do the $90 el-cheapo like I did and then have to do it again.
Also, timing belt/water pump. Should have been done at 105k. If not, and it has the plastic impeller, go metal.
