    Christmas Lights on Dashboard!

    Thanks everyone, it was a rear wheel speed sensor. I managed to get it replaced on the same day. I must advise that it was not as easy as some YouTube videos make it out to be. My friend, luckily who has no end of tools had to take off the wheel bearing and then smash the sensor from the outside...

    Christmas Lights on Dashboard!

    Hi folks, I have had my 2017 A6 Avant Black Edition since May last year...never missed a beat and never had any issues. Last night I was driving home, I was about 100 metres from the driveway and almost every error you could think of came up on the dashboard. TPMS, brake servo, adaptive...

    Adblue System Fault - No Restart

    I had this issue with my 2014 A6. everything looked like it was working. I removed the injector from the DPF and it was indeed spraying adblue into the thing. mine turned out to be a seized float I think. Try topping it up to the max and see if that moves the float. I had mine booked in at a...

    Audi A6 2016 RMC Upgrade Options

    Yea it feels like Audi have only just managed to jump onto the touchscreen bandwagon with the C8 A6s I have the C7.5 with an MIB2 system in it. My old C7 had the rubbish and pointless RMC (I still think it was a huge scam to sell such an expensive car with such a basic system). While it lacks...

    Audi a6 c7 different clusters

    I have done this mod to my - now ex A6 C7. The part is interchangeable between an A6 and A7. There is a few things you need to remove and you will have to visit someone who can remove component protection. For me it just looked nice as I had an RMC nav in my old A6. You don't get maps visible...

    Audi A6 2016 RMC Upgrade Options

    If you just replace the screen for a bigger one, the RMC unit won't support it as the graphics chip on the RMC unit is awful. If you want to use a better screen then you have to upgrade the head-unit as well...you end up going down a rabbit hole of what parts you need and then you'll want the...

    EGR Delete / DPF Issues

    Sorry to be ignorant, but what kind of EGR issues was you experiencing that you felt the need to map/block it out? I have a 2014 A6 Avant Diesel. I used to have no end of problems with my DPF light and all that kind of rubbish. Most people claim that DPF issues (not regenerating, blockages) stem...

    Air con button wont stay on

    The guy I take mine to, injects UV liquid into it and then uses UV lamp to see where the leak is from. Mine has been the rad - twice. I've put a mesh grille in front of it now so it catches all the stones before they even get close to the rad. I bought the grille from B&Q and sprayed it with...

    Air con button wont stay on

    I had this a while ago and despite the replacement of the sensor at the front which is relatively easy to do, the issue turned out to be the actual AC radiator. Have a look at the radiator through the front grille and see if you can spot any darkened spots on it. That is signs of a leak. Usually...

    Tough Gear Changes

    Hello, Just to give you guys an update to this and close the thread off. It turned out to be the master cylinder that was causing issues. It looked like the internals had gone. So no matter how much the clutch was pressed, it did nothing. Once the MC was replaced nothing has happened again...

    Tough Gear Changes

    Hello All, As stated in the title I am having some issues with my 2014 C7 A6. It's a 2.0 diesel with the manual box. The past week or so I have been finding it difficult to change gears. The issue is particularly bad from a cold start. When the engine is off, I can go through the gears as...

    Keyless Entry

    I think the keyless entry was an optional extra, as are most of the things we could find useful.

    Clutch Rattle

    I don't know if this is related but I had the judder in my car from the flywheel. It would only occur when setting off in 1st gear. I didn't get it looked at soon enough and looking back now I think the flywheel destroyed the gearbox. It sounds rotational to me so it could be the clutch friction...

    Glow Plug Warning Light Flashing

    Loss of power like that means it went into limp mode. I would try to replace or clean contacts on the cheapest thing first. Clear the codes and go for a drive.

    2.0TDI Ultra 190 Cambelt Replacement - Cost?

    I know it's an older thread but can't you find an Audi specialist near you? You might save up to 50%. Plus they will also use the same genuine parts that the stealers use.

    Sat Nav Map in instrument cluster not showing

    You get a maps view on the older clusters if you have a colour cluster and a 'better' MMI system like the 3G or the MIB.

    Drivers Door Window Issue

    So I had a bit of time this afternoon and thought I'd investigate the issue. The door card came away surprisingly easy. Just 3 T25 bolts and several clips around the edges. The top part comes away last. After removing the motor, this is what I found. Needless to say it seems like the regulator...

    Drivers Door Window Issue

    I'll get a genuine one to be honest. I don't want to have to strip the door every 4 weeks. I've just had the AC condenser replaced so this was the last thing I needed.

    Drivers Door Window Issue

    175k+ mainly motorway. The window was only about half way down when it happened and then it stayed there. The rest you know from above.
