Hi folks,
I got the car back last week. I just haven't had a chance to update on here. The garage replaced the matrix and fitted it under warranty. The carpets are still drenched in coolant so I think I'll have to hire a rug doctor thing to clean the carpets out. Audi were being typical Audi...
To be honest, I do. I don't know what the heck happened with this. I'm just going to wait until Wednesday/Thursday to see what the garage says. Such a farce!
Just an update...
The garage who fitted the matrix back in December has had the car for a full day now and have taken apart the heater matrix. There was a slight crack in it which is why the coolant leaked out. It must have gotten worse over the past few months and then just given up all...
It was done via warranty so they had no choice but to use genuine parts. I saw the invoices and parts as well.
The car has gone to their garage now so let’s see what they come back with. Once it’s all done I’ll get one of them rug doctor things and give it a good going over. The floor mats are...
Hi All
As the title says, I have just had the whole coolant tank drain into the front footwells. I drove the car on Friday morning and nothing was wrong. Then when I went to pick up the missus from work in the evening, I noticed the car smelling funny inside. I had a good look around in the...
The start stop syatem also does not kick in when a regen is going on, just look at your revs and the best thing to do is put it in manual mode and drive around with the revs at about 2k, it will soon clear and be fine.
Just my two pennies,
I had a 2014 A6 ultra with which I did 250K miles. I had DPF issues and I also had to change out the Adblue tank once. I think you might have just got rid of the so-called problems but now are unsure of what is causing your issues. My old A6 was having DPF issues...I think...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
