Buying help from Sicily - C5 2.5 Tdi AKE Avant Tiptronic
cliffcoggin replied to SoundSilence's topic in Audi A6 (C5) Forum
I admire both your dedication and the size of your wallet Federico. -
You went from Yorkshire to Wiltshire for the battery?

I don't understand why you would need new pistons unless yours in one of a small number of cars fitted with badly designed piston rings for a couple of years. That was well known problem which Audi reluctantly resolved by fitting new pistons under guarantee for many owners. (I doubt this a problem of simple wear at 98000 miles.) If yours is one of the affected cars then it will be consuming oil at an extraordinary rate, so please tell us what your oil consumption is.

Hi all, I've recently purchased a 2010 a6 Avant lemans 2l TDI 170hp so I thought I would join the owners club. Its the first car I've owned but I'm a mechanic on the side so I do most of my own maintenance. Already done 3000 miles in 2 months with plenty more on the way plus a European road trip later this summer. 45mpg average as i do mostly motorway runs + manual gearbox. Parts aren't too bad so far but the size takes getting used to with only rear sensors that are intermittent at best! Have a good one, Dan

Me too. I could cope in the days of points in a distributor, but electronics are beyond me.

Sorry to say but no. My rear lights are intermittently showing the usual rear light malfunction fault. The only way for me to temporarily "fix" the problem is to slam the boot really hard, and not reopen it. When we start to get some significant rain I suspect that the corrosion will be such that this won't work, and for the 6th or 7th time (I'm losing count!!) the rear lights will have to be replaced. Audi don't want to know particularly as my A1 is 2012 reg. My previous car was a Morris Minor which I had for 40 years. The rear lights never failed on that!!

This is sorted now I pulled relay 208 pulled the injectors bridged the relay and lifted the flap on the metering head. Eventually got a good delivery of fuel from each injector. But no spark back to it.

Thanks for replies , going back to garage today , think it's just the way the drive shaft was reassembled after changing the cv joint . It's only happening on initial movement back and forward . No sound actually going into gear .

Tim. If you look through the forum history you will see that changing from tungsten to LED is far from straightforward, and sometimes impossible. If your lights are dim it would be simpler to just renew the bolbs. Incandescant lights do become dim over time.

Is there a link for the stickers please

I’m about to start looking for an SQ5 between 2017 and 2019 and I’m undecided to which engine to go for was hoping to get some feedback on reliability between the TFSI and the TDI many thanks, Alan Reed

I bought another replace screen that definitely works but it still had the same probably and I’m not sure what else to do?

Please contact Trevor the Audi owners club administrator. His user name is Audi owners club. As the club is managed by a limited company I suspect you'd be in breach of copyright. Trevor can send them out to you

Did anyone get to the bottom of this problem as we are now experiencing the same thing?
-
Take it back. Transmission issues rarely resolve themselves. Assuming this is 7-speed S tronic. It needs serviced every 38k miles. If gearbox was serviced, I’d want written notification of that. It could be a firmware issue of course, so would need need a scan to check what’s what, but first thing the dealer is likely to do is drop the oil, new filter, etc. If there any contamination in the gearbox, then that’s on them.

Try speaking to these people about what you want to do and what you'll need Car Stereo Car Audio | Dynamic Sounds | Car Stereo System ... They seem to be very good and not too expensive.

I will wait for the Vid..

Last bit :- vital that you do in my book Andy, before committing. Please do not be mislead into thinking low mileage is any assurance from potential issues, since if you consider such low mileage is usually as a result of short journey use, with numerous gear changes etc. along with stops and starts, and braking. Always worth reviewing the broader picture of pros and cons of low mileage compared with the same car covering high motorway miles at optimum operating conditions. Regards, Gareth.

A6 no sound from radio and media and also mute using Bluetoo
Steve Q replied to trafrask's topic in Audi A6 (C6) Forum
I have to agree with Cliff I suspect it's the amplifier. I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up
