Hi guys,

I have audi a6 c6, 2006, 2.0l diesel, manual. Yesterday i parked on the side of the motorway, then i joined the motorway again with a bit high rmps, then the car stalled after about 30 meters and wont start back. The had to be towed away. Today i replaced the battery but it still showing on MMI that the battery is low and the car not starting. Only like a tick noice while turn the key. Please if anyone can help. Thank you

Hello Radek,

Sorry to hear of your issues. When you say you replaced the battery, did you have your old one checked first, and was the replacement a brand new battery which was fully charged when fitted? 

If this were mine, I would be checking the battery connections and the thick ‘main’ earths to the bodywork, then all the large fuses associated with the charging and starting systems, followed by the connections onto the starting motor - of course, observing all safety requirements associated with testing electrics. 

Unfortunately, if all of this doesn’t get you anywhere then you will need to seek an hour’s services of a trusted mobile auto electrician unless you have a more in-depth knowledge of these systems. 

Perhpas you could let us know how you get on.

Kind regards, 

Gareth.
