Hello guys,
I am about to buy Audi S6 C8 2019/11, it has 75 000 km and I think it has this annoying fuel pump sound... it sounds like some Lady neighbor is using vacuum cleaner next door behind the wall.
Check the video. It is terrible. I asked Audi employees to check it out and they told me that noise is coming from the fuel pump and this pump is working fine, no need to replace... If i want to replace it it cost €700 ....
*EDIT - you have to download the video to see the images, I cant see the video in this forum, I hear only the sound
The media attachment isn't working at all for me but I would definitely avoid it, I got mine fixed only because before picking the car up I told them I want it fixed, my local dealer didn't do it as it doesn't come under warranty but the dealer I got it from did it free, can't enjoy driving the car with that constant noise and then all the passengers also asking what is it, definitely avoid

My local dealer said they wouldn't do anything as technically it doesn't come under warranty repair but the dealers I got it from said they would pay for it, it was working out expensive for them so they took the car themselves to fix, definitely much better now before was horrible all you could hear was the annoying noise

I do have 2 years warranty, been around Europe done around 1700miles, before I picked the car up I did notice it slightly and mentioned it to them to have it fixed for when I picked it up, when I did go back the guy said something like it will go away (I just thought maybe it's been parked up a little while so will stop after a little bit of driving) but it's definitely not stopped and is still constant, exact same as Francisco above has

Hello,
I have a 2019 A6 (C8) avant with the 40tdi engine. My car does a irritating humming/buzzing sound which at first i thought to be from an unbalanced AC fan but soon discovered its not as i turned the AC off, the humming persisted. I had also noted that this noise changes in tone when slightly pressing the accelerator, so it is connected to fuel supply to the engine. I have recently discovered its source when I began using the start-stop function (which i did not used), as when the engine is stopped as i stop in traffic, the noise can be clearly heard (without beeing masked by engine noise) for 1-2 secs and then it stops to reappear again as soon as engine starts. It is clearly a pump noise and it is located under the passenger seat (my car is LHD).
before this A6 I had a Q5 and the fuel filter was located under the passenger seat but had no pump. Maybe Audi moved the primary pump to this location or set a new pump on the fuel circuit, as there is also one pump on the tank (I car hear that too). I could not find any service manual or diagrams for this car, so I cannot tell for sure.
I did not take the car to the dealer but i am planning on do it soon as this noise drives me mad.
Did you get this sorted? I got 2019 a6 a few weeks ago from dealers and this noise is driving me mad! Thanks

Hi, unfortunately they won't do anything for you, I took mine to my local dealer they said there's nothing mechanically wrong with it so it not covered under warranty, the dealer I got the car from agreed to fix the issue because I told them when I went to test drive it to sort the issue out which they didnt but they did it after a month, they did say there's technically nothing wrong with it but sorted it for me
