    Cutting holes in bumper for headlight washers

    Hello I after a small accident, I've managed to source a new front bumper for my A6 Avant. Only problem is that my A6 has headlight washers, but the new bumper does not have the cut outs for it. Is it possible to cut the holes myself? And is there a template? Or will I have to get a new bumper...

    Navigation DVD Drive - Device Fault

    Hello I've (sort of) successfully completed a DVD Navigation retrofit into my A6, but the navigation MMI screen shows 'Please check Navigation DVD'. I've tried a dew different DVDs with no success. A VCDS scan shows the error 'Device Fault'. Does this mean the unit is faulty? I purchased it...

    MMI Control Unit compatibility

    Looking to fit an MMI Control Unit with FBAS input into my A6. All the ones I'm finding are from an A8 though. Will the A8 unit work in the A6? If so, will there be any differences? Thanks

    Turbo upgrades?

    Hi Got a 2006 2.0TDI with the BRE engine. I need to replace the turbo, and was just wondering if there are any bolt-on bigger turbos? I was thinking of getting the GTB2056VK, but I'm unsure if it will fit without any extra parts or modifications. Anyone got any experience with this? Thanks

    Parking Sensor Problems

    Hi Got a 2006 A6 Avant with front and rear parking sensors. When I press the park assist button, it gives a high pitch beep and the light flashes.

    MMI Navigation question

    Hi Just got a 55 plate A6, it has the MMI 2G High with navigation as an option, but there is no navigation cd drive in the boot compartment. Does this mean I cannot use the navigation, or can I use the CD Drive in the glove box? Thanks

    CCM / Electric Windows Help

    Been having this problem for a few months. All of the electric windows stopped working suddenly. Although, every once in a while, they will work until I turn the car off again. I've checked the door harness wiring, the CCM, and the CCM wiring and all seems to be okay. Anyone else had this...

    Cleaning EGR Valve - Small part fell off?

    I decided to (unsuccessfully - story for another time) clean the EGR valve on my 2.0TDI (BLB). After fiddling with it for a while and trying to undo the various bolts, a small plastic part fell off and I have no idea what it's for or where it came from. Any ideas what it is and how important it is?

    Reverse Sensor Fitting - Drilling point?

    I'm trying to fit some reverse sensors to my 2004 A3. I've taken off the rear bumper, but the bumper doesn't have the little crosses that I've heard about where you're supposed to drill. Any advice on how I can drill the holes in the right place? Thanks

    Help removing rear bumper / Nuts in holes

    I'm removing the rear bumper on my 3door, and I've got every screw out except for the 2 nuts that are in the holes in the boot. How the hell do you get theses out? No tool I have can get in there to undo the nut and all my sockets get stopped by the ridiculously long screw. Any ideas? Thanks

    Rough idle when engine is warm

    I've got a 2004 2.0TDI (BKD Engine) which runs fine when the engine is cold, but develops a very rough idle when the engine has warmed up to around 90. I don't think it's the DMF as the roughness doesn't change as the clutch is pressed in. I've just changed all filters and oil, which had no...
