Hi guys, recently bought a a6 c8 with 84k on the clock. After a short drive today had an engine coolant low warning. Checked coolant level and it’s really low, noticed residue below the engine. Any ideas? Thank you

Also have you done any diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up?

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 sounds like a lovely car.

Neither for mine in regards to red or yellow engine lights. Just the error in the scroll menu on the central part of the virtual display. The breaks on mine only started juddering on replacing with a new sensor. Tried to clear codes too with OBD reader but no effect. Likely will bring it into mechanic as definitely dont want to brick the ABS. May need cleared with a better OBD2 tool either. No fault codes either on OBD

Hello everyone. I need advice. From time to time I have a problem P119A00. How I can to solve this issue? The high fuel pressure sensor is new. This problem appears during acceleration. And also I noticed that LTFT - 10% even -14.

Hi all big thank you to all that read this ,I have a 2020 q2 sline 35tfsi I desperately need to know how to turn the volume on my indicators up it does make a clicking noise but it’s not loud enough so any help would be appreciated thank you

Hi All Had the same issue 5 days ago. Symptoms as listed in the discussion. Yellow ELEC FAULT and a cascade of associated messages along with load-shedding of multiple items such as A/C, MMI,Start/Stop button greyed out etc. Fortunately, I was on my way home. Tried to start the car and but it hardly turned over. Used my NOCO jump starter and that got in running instantly. Given that the battery was flat, I put it on charge and drove it directly to Audi with as many power using items switched off. Managed to cover the 15 miles or so. Having done research overnight, I read up on the 7 year recall and advised Audi of this. They said they would call me after diagnostics. The call confirmed a failed BSG. I also emailed a copy of the BSG Recall Doc that confirmed the no payment would be due. Audi subsequently confirmed that the repair would be FOC. Collecting the car on Monday. Very relieved not to have to pay the bill! My car has the build code 9G8. I think earlier comments suggesting that the MMI or a light should give a warning that the battery is no longer charging. This was always the case on older cars that had an IGN light so you didn’t get left in the lurch. recall doc below: Recall reference R/2020/265 Recall Type Car Recall Date 2020-10-02 Reason for concern MOISTURE MAY ENTER THE BELT DRIVEN STARTER-ALTERNATOR Reason for recall It is possible that moisture may enter the belt-driven starter-alternator. Remedy The starter-alternator must be replaced on the affected vehicles. How to check if the vehicle is recalled Contact the local AUDI dealership or manufacturer.

It was the TPMS bulb located in the wing on the driver’s side. My local Audi garage did lots of expensive diagnostic tests that revealed nothing - the car failed its MOT, and might have had to be written off. Thankfully a sensible mechanic - from the Audi group of garages I’d bought it from - thought to check the bulb first before running the same useless tests again.

A common problem is breakage of the wires in the rubber bellows between door and frame.

After years of avoiding automatics because I thought they were slow and sluggish I was forced by knee problems into buying one, and bought a cheap A4 Multi-tronic, expecting to hate it, but found it was really good, so I decided to upgrade. I've had an A6 C5 Allroad 3.0 Tdi manual on coils in the past, which I loved, so I thought I'd try another, but couldn't find one locally when I needed it, so bought a Volvo XC70 with the D5 & Geartronic as an alternative. Big mistake. Its a barge on wheels. Horrible to drive, slow and drinks fuel, so when I saw this 2.7 Tdi A6 C6 Allroad Avant with Tiptronic I jumped at it, and apart from minor teething problems with the electrics (see other posts) I absolutely love it. Not sure why you'd want quite so many ways to change gear, but hey: its smooth and quick. What's not to like? Anyone want an XC70?

No probs at all

When I bought the car the driver's door would unlock remotely, but not the passenger door. After a few days the driver's door packed up too. I changed the passenger door module for one from a breaker, which worked half-a-dozen times, then stopped. I exchanged it for another, which didn't work at all. I swapped the driver's door one, and this didn't work either, so I exchanged it, and again the replacement didn't work. Also the key operated window lift which has worked up to now stopped working! I'm wondering if I've been unlucky with 2nd hand units, whether I've been given the wrong parts, or whether there's something else going on. As far as I can tell the door control modules are all part number 4F095979 and then 2 for NSF, 3 for OSF, and 4/5 for the rear doors, but people list them differently. Also there's a range of suffix letters, I've come across P, E, T & C so far. Can anyone tell me what part numbers I should be looking for, and suggest any explanation for my lack of success? On the +ve side, I'm getting pretty slick at taking the door cards off! Thanks

If anyone does have difficulty with there ABS module with this fault reflashing it using Odis usualy solves the problem

atleast you can rule out the battery.

Ooops. In the time I replied I saw your great message. Happy days.

Agree. DO NOT DRIVE. I drove to my dealership but in doing so I bricked the abs. It cost nearly £4k to get it fixed. Pls don’t move your car. Can you call Audi Assist who usually carry spare sensors. Good luck.

Good to hear! :)

It’s ok bro I’ve changed it now and the brakes are working fine now no issues since

Ignore the message that says it's 'OK to drive'!!!!! The message is incorrect!!! DO NOT DRIVE ANY FURTHER (try not to brake too hard and park up as as soon as possible where safe to do so). Buy the required sensor and replace it asap.

There were no warning lights it was a message on the dash saying Brake servo but it is ok to drive but contact dealer.
