Stevenspdo Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 I drive an A6 Allroad 2016 model. 3.0 TDI V6 Quattro. It has a place where you can insert a dipstick and I want to purchase one so I am able to physically see the oil. Can somebody please tell me the dimensions of the dipstick I would need? many thanks.

Steve Q Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 I'm surprised it didn't come with a dipstick. I've found two on ebay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Audi-A5-8T-A6-C7-2-0-TDi-Oil-Dipstick-Dip-Stick-New-Genuine-03L115611AC-/133532394986?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Audi-A6-C7-3-0-V6-TDI-Diesel-Engine-Oil-Dip-Stick-New-Genuine-059115611AM-/133392853196?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
56Doc Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Stevespdo, Did you try those part numbers? I’ve got a 2015 3.0tdi Allroad with the same issue, all I know is that the sensor is showing ‘Max’ and that oil is getting into the intake system, (which can be a symptom of overfilling and/or a blocked breather) what I don’t know is if it’s above ‘Max’ and if so, by how much.

56Doc Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Apparently it could also be turbo oil seals too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
