Just doing some autotrader browsing, nothing serious. Was wondering how the B&Q sound system compares to the other options [emoji16] https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201711301690712 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi, For the last 2 days I've got up to find my car has a dead battery. The AA came out both times, jump started the car and tested the battery with the result being that the battery is fine. The only conclusion I can come to is that something is draining the battery overnight. The AA guy...

Hi All, I'm tempted to have a go at adding DAB to my car, it's always bugged me that it isn't there. I was wondering how I work out what unit I need, is it a straight swap out for one of the units in the boot? Do I need to add aerials as well? Details of my car:- 2010 A6 Avant Facelift MMI...

I've got some paint peeling from the trim panel that is between the front and back doors of my A6, does anyone know how to remove this? It looks like the plastic at the bottom might pull off to reveal the attachment point, but I don't want to force it and damage something. Thanks. Sent...

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows when the 2017 map update will be made available for the MMI 3G High? It looks like it is already available for MMI 3G Plus. Thanks, Steve Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi, So my A6 fell victim to someone trying to insert a Seat Leon up the exhaust pipe yesterday! Question is this . . . It is booked in for it's MOT tomorrow and I am wondering if it is likely to fail on the bodywork, I've attached pics, first is the car immediately after the event, complete...

I was driving up the motorway with my brother this evening and he pointed out that the lights in my door cards were flashing on and off, both doors were flashing together in sync so I'm thinking it's not an issue with the leds or bulbs (not sure which they are) but maybe wiring? I've tried to...

I've been looking into getting the rear cup holders for my A6 which appear to have been available as an option. Has anyone fitted these and is it just a swap of the plastic insert or would I need a whole new armrest? Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi, In the last couple of days my side assist has been played my up a bit, previous to this it has worked fine. It's only on the driver's side and the issue is the light comes on as if there is a car in my blind spot but there is nothing there. It still comes on if something actually is there...

Bit of an odd question I know, but this is confusing me. I often drive from Birmingham to Hull, each time I usually get an average mpg of 37 ish. Today I did the same drive and averaged 45.5mpg, I didn't consciously do anything different, slightly concerned that half my engine might have...

Just wanted to share my joy! Having decided to do a brake overhaul on the A6 (new discs, pads, hoses and calipers refurbed and painted) I have just received the calipers back, very pleased with the results, can't wait to see them on the car. I'll share some pics once it's back together. Sent...

Hi, I'm planning to do some work on my brakes in January which will involve removing the calipers and sending them away to be refurbed. I'm thinking that I may as well upgrade the rubber hoses to steel braided ones at the same time. I was thinking of using bolts to plug the connectors once...

Hi, I was looking at these lights on the kufatec site:- https://www.kufatec.co.uk/shop/en/index.php?info=4224&page=product&page_action=&mobile=false Does anyone know if these will have the issue where cold diagnosis makes them strobe occasionally? My A6 C6 is a 2010. Thanks,

Hi, I need to replace the nearside cornering bulb on my A6. I watched a few videos I found on how to get access to the headlight unit but turns out that my engine takes up a lot more space than the ones in the videos (3.0TDi). I wasn't able to get the power steering bottle as far away as they...

Hi, My car is a 2010 A6 Avant with the factory LED tail/brake lights and Bi Xenons. I have tried fitting some LED bulb replacements which look much better (in my opinion) however I now have the problem of them flickering when the vehicle pulses them to perform cold diagnosis, the reversing...

Hi, I've read a few thread and online articles about updating the MMI and Nav versions but I'm still unsure about a couple of things. Firstly I have a 2010 A6 C6 with the MMI 3G High (hard drive jukebox and joystick in selection wheel), and the version information it is showing is:-...

Hi, I've swapped the stock halogen bulbs at the rear of my C6 Avant for LED bulbs, the type that just fit in place of the original bulbs. The car has the rear clusters with the factory LEDs for the tail / brake lights, halogen for the indicator, reversing and fog lights. I've noticed that...

Hi, Has anyone managed to override the system that stops the display of TV or other videos (DVD) when the vehicle is moving? Is it just a VCDS coding job? This is for an A6 C6 2010 model. Many Thanks, Steve

Hi All, I've done the DRL upgrade to LED where I had to cut the blanking plates out of the headlamp and place covers over the hole after the replacement, works fine. I'm looking to replace the front indicator lamps with LED units, I just had a quick look and it looks like this lamp is also...
