Think i regret buying my 2016 a6 avant. Should of kept my b7 a4 All was fine until i booked the car in with audi due to o/s/f cv joint was clicking at 21,000 miles this was done under warranty, took 3 days to repair. Partner Brings vehicle home to discover deep scratches in passengers wing and...

Mine is exactly the same i have tried new sensors too tends to be the two inner ones too

Got a 2016 A6 avant. Aircon recently has stopped working. Light on button will not come on and pump wont engage. I have plugged in another pressure sensor i had spare from my old a4 and pump kicked in briefly and checked pressure and plenty of gas in there. So a new sensor and should be fine...

Yea drove it around and still its too high. It wont settle

Yep top mount is correct, and springs seated correctly. The front bottom arms have the ball joint pointing down through hub with nut on the bottom and rear arm is pointing up through hub with nut on top obviously. Really cant get my head around it, would understand if i touched the springs or...

Finally had some time to spend on the car today. Tried this method and its still the same height as before. I cant work it out? The arms are the correct ones (identical infact) not sure what to do now :/

No i tighten them when in relaxed position. Is it just bottom arms i need to tighten when under compression? Best to do on level ground and crawl underneath? Want to get sorted before new tyres and wheel alignment.

Spent all day saturday faffing around with them ****** pinch bolts on the front suspension. I have replaced all the arms, link arms and track rod ends. But for some reason my arch gap is too big? Any ideas?

Got a 2.0 tfsi. Oil pressure sensor wiring is completley dead. Only got a earth on the black wire. Green and yellow are dead. I take it this is what is causing the warning on the dash cluster. Sensor has been changed before i found this issue. Pressure tested and all good. Theres obviously and...

my local engineer said he could repair that damage and also said this wouldn't be causing a knock. this video i have found on youtube is the same play i have in my cam adjuster is this normal i wished i never brought this car now. its driving me mad.

Had a look again last night, the timing adjuster on the end of the cam has slight play in it is this ok? Also when i rotate the camshaft it gives a slight knock? Would this be my noise? Or is is just cause theres no oil inside it?

Would you think the wear from the cam would cause the knocking? Also what would be causing it to do the same thing. I have used the orginal cams in the replacement cylinder head would this cause the problem?

Been awhile since a update, i had rebuilt the engine, come across some issue on the way, slave cylinder seal blown, and leaky injector seals, fuel pipe split. I will update this thread with pictures soon. Engine was running sweet as a nut, but then after 5miles it developed a knock at 2000rpm i...

Got the bolt removed today by the bloke who is doing the head skim, he put the whole block in his press to hold it steady, and used a 3foot breaker bar. Took alot of force but eventually cracked off, the bolt holds the bottom pulley/sproket for the timing belt.
