MMI Plus Navigation Update
I highly doubt it as I'm sure they've outlawed that function haven't they?

Q2
Engine wise it'll depend on what kind of mileage you do. And whether or not you want to be raised up?

MMI Plus Navigation Update
If you're using Waze then you're using a better system that's in real time compared to the satnav which will be more out of date.

What did you do to your A6 today
Nothing done to my A6 really. Just research still regarding its rebuild. Currently researching turbos. Done a great job on yours.

A6 Door weather blades.
Think they're defined as door seals. The door blades are metal and on the outside. Mainly found on older A6 c5 for example

High Pressure Diesel Pump Coding ?
No probs at all 🙂

Warning light problems since new
I'd like to think there should be some good will from Audi as it's not a component that should fail 6 months out of warranty unless you've done galactic mileage of course. Which you haven't

High Pressure Diesel Pump Coding ?
Is it a new pump or second hand one? Either way if it's not the original pump then it'll need coding. If it's anything like my older A6 the injection pump is linked in with the imobiliser so needs a professional

Q2
Q2 is just a raised up A3. Audi discontinued them along with other Audi models due to production costs. They're narrowing down the amount of product range to save the money. However this won't affect getting parts for them. And resale value should be ok.

I find preventative maintenance is key with older Audi's. A lot of people do t spend the money on them as they're not seen worth it due to their age. Like you I'll never get the money back I've spent on mine.

First timing chain & water pump change

B8 or B9
You'll need a letter from Audi to confirm the year of build and spec etc to get it changed with DVLA. Very odd Audi weren't willing to get this rectified
