Hi Paul

Bummer man, that's annoying! and every Audi is a special Audi in my mind :)

Kind regards

Bradley

Ya ur right Brad, in my eyes too my Audi is special to me :) 

So i spend most of Sunday washing cleaning and polishing my car getting it ready for Castle Combe only to wake this morning to find it covered in Saharan dust, i`m now back to square one.

My Audi is nothing special when it comes to Audis but still i want it to look great on the day, i guess i`ll have to start over lol 

UGLY

ok fair enough m8 i`ll leave it alone lol

Anyone know how i enter the secret menu on the MMI and is it worth it ?

Hi and welcome to Audi owners club forums, we are a friendly bunch here and will help where we can.

What was the recall for? 

Be interested to know what the horror stories are does it affect a lot of cars or just some. 

Lovely sunny day so thought i`d make a start on getting my car ready for castle combe today was a wash and SUPER RESIN POLISH using Auotglym next step will be ULTRA DEEP SHINE. 

As i had been a good boy and put together our ikea bits the wife let me loose on the car with of coarse Stella Artois in hand  

she only thought i was putting the unit together today lol, it`s beer time so flat pack can wait ........................

Well its better she is sending you then going with you !!!😂😂😂😂

too true, i cant do 100 with her in the car 60 is fast enough for her  back now so all good 

can you post a pic or 2 so we can see what needs doing, thanks

Wish me luck peeps, the wife is sending me to ikea this afternoon, can think of better things to do with me time 

Have you asked any local garages near you if it something they could do for you, would imagine they could fit a new roof you have sourced

Nice looking car m8, glad ur happy with ur choice. its personal choice when it comes to maintenance if you have a good garage near you that you trust then let them take care of the car. i use my local garage who are £40 an hour as appose to Audi who are about £100 an hour for the same work, you do the maths 

"Track rod end - right side slight play advice replacement of arm and clip plus wheel alignment  £469.57" aUDI QUOTED

Popped into local VW garage and showed them the paper work from Audi and said will check Track rod end whilst doing the MOT and advice if the work needs doing or not, should i need it replaced they will do it plus all wheel alignment for £120, happy with that 

Be honest its all of us at one point

Its under Car . But you need to have ambient lighting pack as this wasnt standard 

If you dont have led strips under the door aluminium trim then you dont have the pack 

Do these only light up when headlights are on and at night, have turned brightness up full but cant see and glow

Johnny what can i say but wow if this was my car i would want Audi to take it in for repairs or better still replace the car for new and give me a replacement car till mine was repaired or new one when ready. I do hope all these problems are fixed for you.

Audi a6 c6 is full of suprises :) took me few months from buying to find out stuff like 

- sunglasses holder above the mirror

- holding key open button opens and closes windows and sunroof 

- reset button on the trip computer stick switches dis to digital speedometer ( works on some models only)

- opening the boot from car key does not open all doors , so can be closed without a need to lock the car again 9

- holding econ button for few seconds switches off all air system 

- with one or more doors open you can lock the car with keyfob and then close doors with enables the lock ( usefull when taking my son out from his sit)

- ambient lighting pack - footwell led and door strips led are lit during driving , can be adjusted in mmi 

If i remember more ill might put a seperate post on tips and tricks :) 

I can now do all of the above only one to try now is "ambient lighting pack - footwell led and door strips led are lit during driving , can be adjusted in mmi," 

Piotr do you what section of the mmi i should be looking in?
