Audi A6 problems

The Audi A6 is an executive car made by the German company Audi since 1994. Now in its fifth generation, the successor to the Audi 100 is manufactured in Neckarsulm, Germany, and is available in saloon and estate configurations, the latter marketed by Audi as the Avant. Audi's internal numbering treats the A6 as a continuation of the Audi 100 lineage, with the initial A6 designated as a member of the C4-series, followed by the C5, C6, C7, and the C8. The related Audi A7 is essentially a Sportback (liftback) version of the C7-series and C8-series A6 but is marketed under its own separate identity and model designation.
All generations of the A6 have offered either front-wheel-drive or Torsen-based four-wheel-drive, marketed by Audi as their quattro system. The A6 has also been used as the basis for the company's Allroad models since 1999.
Both petrol and diesel versions of the A6 are offered. The wide range of engines available have power outputs ranging from 150 to 333 PS (110 to 245 kW). These are inline four-cylinder turbocharged engines and more powerful 3-litre units in a V6 configuration with a mechanical compressor.

Audi A6 2019
- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-21
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-24
- VIN: WAUL2AF27KN
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
- Summary: Audi is aware of the starter-alternator issue which is documented in Audi's Emissions Service Action Code: 27BQ dated 4/30/24. Audi didn't communicate this to the effective users until October 2024. I personally experienced the defect in my starter-alternator on 10/21/24 and proceeded to have my car repaired.
Audi A6 2015
- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-01
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-16
- VIN: WAUFFAFC1FN
- Components: ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
- Summary: The contact owns a 2015 Audi A6. The contact stated that while driving on neighborhood roads at approximately 25 MPH, the coolant warning light was illuminated. The contact proceeded to park on the side of the road and walk to her residence to pick up coolant to refill the coolant tank. The vehicle was then taken to the independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the coolant tank needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 79,000.
Audi A6 2019
- Date Of Incident: 2024-08-13
- Date Complaint: 2024-08-17
- VIN: WAUM2AF22KN
- Components: UNKNOWN OR OTHER
- Summary: The car was purchased in 2019, brand new from Audi dealership. Last service showed a serious issue: REPLACE WATER PUMP VACUUM LINES WITH SOLENOIDS AND VACUUM RESERVOIR. Dealership claims out of warranty and wants to charge $5000. VW settled class action lawsuit with consumers due to faulty water pump, and there is a Technical service bulletin dated 11/21/2023 that states the water pump leaks coolant and needs to be repaired. Consumer should have been made aware that vehicle was at risk of faulty water pump that could have been replaced at time of bulletin issue because it would have been under the 4 year mark.
Audi A6 2019
- Date Of Incident: 2023-05-23
- Date Complaint: 2024-08-07
- VIN: WAUL2AF26KN
- Components: VISIBILITY/WIPER
- Summary: Rearview camera (or various combinations of between 1 and 4 of the surround view cameras -- no rhyme or reason to which camera(s) fail in a given incident) frequently fails and displays a black screen instead of rearward facing view. This happens roughly one of every ten times I start my car, and is resolved only after I turn my car off, lock it, and leave it alone for several minutes. This has been the case since the car was new to me (I am the second owner of the vehicle, having purchased it 8 months and 10k miles after the original owner). This severely compromises rearward visibility and is in direct violation of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 111. Without the mandated backup camera, I am unable to see immediately behind my vehicle, increasing the risk of a collision with a pedestrian, another vehicle, or an animal/other object. The problem has been reproduced by two separate Audi dealers (Audi Marin and Audi Palo Alto), but they have been unable to resolve the issue upon repeated inspection of my vehicle. There are no warning lamps or errors prior to the failure. The only indication of failure is when I shift into reverse and see a black screen. This issue is consistent with other owners' experiences (see [XXX] ) who own vehicles on the same infotainment infrastructure (2019-2020 Audi A6/A7/A8/Q7/Q8). Similarly, it is consistent with the issue underpinning Compliance Recall 91DZ, affecting the same vehicles of the 2021 model year onward.

Audi A6 2021
- Date Of Incident: 2024-06-23
- Date Complaint: 2024-06-23
- VIN: WAUL2AF25MN
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
- Summary: Vehicle had electrical system malfunction. Vehicle provided an electrical system malfunction and vehicle starting system malfunction warning message a few days prior to the incident. Vehicle has approximately 20.5K miles on odometer. Before I was able to bring it to service, the electrical system malfunction message became more severe and turned from yellow to red. While driving, the vehicle progressively shut down ABS, lane departure, and other systems and gave a transmission warning message. Eventually, the car lost power and I was left stranded at the side of the road.
Audi A6 2019
- Date Of Incident: 2024-05-02
- Date Complaint: 2024-05-09
- VIN: WAUM2AF22KN
- Components: STEERING
- Summary: After heavy down pour, the car was driven while the streets were still very wet. The car was driven through a 2 - 3 inch puddle of water that lasted less than 1 second, which caused a splash to the passenger side of the car, (the middle of the street did not have an accumulation of water) and within 30 secs caused the power steering warning light came on. This was not a flooded street, just the normal accumulation of water on the side of a residential curbed street. The steering immediately started to stiffen up and required increased effort to turn the steering wheel. The first warning lamp was yellow and stated that continued driving was still allowed, but after about 3 min the lamp turned red, and the message indicated "Steering malfunction, Do not drive vehicle". This occurred on a street where the speed limit was 30 mph, so safety at that time was not a big issue, but if this had happened on street where increased speed and more turning was required, safety could be a big issue if this happened suddenly. I was able to get the car to a nearby shop within 5 min, and the next day moved the car to the Audi West Houston. Audi has identified the power steering rack as faulty is in the process of replacing the electric power steering rack assembly. This car is a 2019 AUDI A6 with only 41k miles.
Audi A6 2016
- Date Of Incident: 2024-04-22
- Date Complaint: 2024-05-02
- VIN: WAUCFAFC1GN
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
- Summary: The contact owns a 2016 Audi A6. The contact stated that while driving approximately 40 MPH, the vehicle suddenly experienced a loss of motive power and stalled. During the failure, the message Electric Power Control "EPC" was displayed. The vehicle was later towed to the local dealer who diagnosed that the electric wiring harness located in the engine compartment had failed due to moisture intrusion and the harness along with an internal computer needed to be replaced. No further information was available. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The failure mileage was 49,000.
Audi A6 2016
- Date Of Incident: 2024-04-16
- Date Complaint: 2024-04-16
- VIN: WAUFFAFC7GN
- Components: POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE
- Summary: I took the vehicle into a repair shop because the check engine light is on. I was advised that the water pump is leaking and it needs to be replaced along with the thermostat. The turbo charger assembly also needs to be replaced. Both of these items appear to be deficient and were listed under recent recalls on similar Audi vehicles and this VIN was not included in either recall. However, it appears to be a similar concern and should be resolved by the Manufacturer.
Audi A6 2016
- Date Of Incident: 2023-05-30
- Date Complaint: 2024-03-28
- VIN: WAUHGAFC9GN
- Components: FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE
- Summary: I am the original owner of my vehicle and have had my vehicle maintenance done at Niello Audi in Sacramento, CA. In May 2023, the forward facing camera on my 2016 Audi A6 stopped working. The dashboard error message was "ACC and Audi braking guard Unavailable". As a result, the automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, lane keeping assist, and cruise control stopped working. In June of 2023 I took the vehicle in to the above named dealer and they indicated that the front facing camera would need to be replaced but they could not do so because the part in on back order. The part number is 4H0907217FX. Ever since June 2023, the dealer has indicated that the part is still on back order and unavailable. Today March 28, 2024, I contacted AUDI USA and was informed that Audi stopped making that part and it is no longer available. I have been waiting almost a year for Audi to correct this to no avail. The part in question is tied to several safety systems (emergency braking, collision warnings, etc.) and I feel that my vehicle is unsafe to drive. Obviously, this concerning safety issue affects all Audi owners in the United States and I think Audi should immediately be required to fix this safety issue.

Audi A6 2020
- Date Of Incident: 2024-02-08
- Date Complaint: 2024-02-17
- VIN: WAUE8AF2XLN
- Components: FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
- Summary: Audi issued a recall for our vehicle’s fuel level sender which reports the amount of fuel in the tank to our fuel gauge display in late 2022 or early 2023. The reason for the recall stems from a safety issue in which the car incorrectly can display that there is more fuel in the tank than what is actually there. Our local dealership’s service center, Princeton Audi initially completed this recall repair in Late February or Early March of 2023 while the car had roughly 25-26,000 miles on it. Less than a fews days later, the recall repair failed and our car shutdown on us leaving my wife stranded while I was having surgery unable to help her. I escalated and reported this issue to Audi of America immediately to create awareness as this was dangerous. The Princeton Audi Service Center attempted to repair the recall a second time and assured us the repair was successful. The same issue has unfortunately resurfaced less than a year later, in February of 2024 while the vehicle has only 33,398 miles on it. After a third attempt to repair this recall, the Princeton Audi Service advisor confirmed the fuel level sensor was again faulty. Regretfully we are still seeing inaccurate reporting of the fuel levels in our car creating a perpetually dangerous situation for myself, my family, and others on the road. Our car can shutdown on a major highway if it runs out of gas because the fuel gauge display keeps showing we might have half a tank or more due to the inaccurate reporting from the fuel level sender. After contacting Audi of America again about this failed recall, they seem to be dodging responsibility for the failed remedy and providing no recourse to ensure the safety of myself, my family, or those we out at risk if we keep driving this vehicle. The Princeton Audi Service center keeps stating they have made the repair, but the recall remedy keeps failing for us. Please help us as they refuse to replace the vehicle or buy it back after the failed recall.

Vehicle year: 2017
I took a look at the 2016 BMW 5 series and the latest Mercedes E class (4 cylinder model). I decided against the new 5 series due to concerns about reliability in the first year of production, and the 6 cylinder E class was just too expensive. However, I absolutely loved the ride and handling of the A6. It strikes the perfect balance between sport and luxury, and it's the only German midsize car that offers REAR side airbags, as well as outstanding crash testing. The ride and handling are truly exceptional. While some formal car magazine reviews have stated that the steering is numb or light, I personally did not have that impression. The V6 engine provides ample power whenever you need it. I opted for a factory order Premium Plus with 19

Vehicle year: 2005
I bought this car used with only 7,800 miles. I absolutely love the smooth power and fit and finish. Although the ride can be a little rough with the S-Line, on good roads the tracking and traction more than make up for it. The interior is what really sold me on this car - BMW interiors can be a bit boring, but I feel truly special driving this one.

Great reliable car with good mileage and virtually maintenance free. I'm glad to hear that you have had no issues with your Audi and that it has served you well on several long distance trips. The comfort and ease of use are definitely a plus. Thank you for sharing your positive experience, and I hope you continue to enjoy your Audi. Definitely would purchase again.

Vehicle year: 2012
I've owned my 2012 A6 for about a year now and I couldn't be happier! I added an EPL tune + pulley that gives it another 80-100 hp from stock, and it's made the car even more fun to drive. I highly recommend this tune to anyone who wants an extra sporty ride with no downside. The quattro has an incredible feel of safety and the car rides on rails for a luxury sports sedan. The interior is excellent and the seats are very comfortable. The heated seats work great, but I do miss having cooled vented seats in my ride. The air conditioning is great though! Once you get used to MMI, it's so easy to navigate. Speaking of navigation, the live Google navigation is very nice to have at your fingertips. Gas mileage is impressive, even with the tune. I get 30mpg on the highway at 65-70mph (26mpg on the highway @ 85mph) and around 20mpg in the city. The steering is a touch vague, but extremely confidence-inspiring. All in all, the car is fantastic! I've owned several other cars in the past, but for all-around sporty driving and comfort for a family of 5, this one is my favorite of all. It obviously has more tech, but the feel of safety and road holding is just amazing. It's just so easy to drive! For pure driving fun, the e39 was probably the cream of the crop, although the A6 with the tune is a good bit faster than the M.

I've had the pleasure of owning Audi's in the past, and my 2012 A6 (Prestige 3.0 Supercharged V6) is a testament to how seriously the brand takes on global competitors. The car boasts a sleek and modern exterior, highlighted by the LED headlights and aggressive front. Inside, the tight and modern aesthetic creates a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. I opted out of the sport options on my ordered vehicle, and the ride on the 18
Jaren Heller 2025-02-22
Vehicle year: 2020
The interior and exterior appearance of this vehicle are excellent. However, the ride quality is not up to par. It seems that Audi assumes that only Formula One drivers would drive this former luxury car. The suspension is quite firm, which means that once you leave the glassy smooth test ride route, you will feel every road imperfection. Additionally, the transmission is jerky, especially at low speeds. The turbo lag is the worst I have ever experienced in any car. Although the car can go from 0-60 very quickly, the first second or two with your foot on the gas will be ignored. This car is nothing like the amazing 2013 Audi A6 I traded in. If you were hoping for a refined ride, you should consider test driving this vehicle off of routes carefully selected by the dealer.
Frederick Terry 2025-02-12
Vehicle year: 2000
The car is eight years old but has only 57k miles. Although I have invested a lot of money into it over the past few years, I have unfortunately encountered some unexpected issues. I have had to replace the water pump, timing belt, and other parts. However, there are still some repairs that need to be made, such as the instrument panel and AM radio. The information box is difficult to read and requires a new instrument panel, which can be expensive. The AM radio stopped working a few years ago and the repair estimate was high. Recently, the transmission went bad and the repair estimate is also high. Despite these challenges, I have decided to keep the car for a while longer. While I may not purchase another Audi, I have appreciated the time I have spent with this car.
Reece Langworth 2025-02-06
Vehicle year: 1999
Although this car has some issues, it is still a safe car that handles well. However, the performance is below par for a car of this price. The quality of these cars can be hit and miss, and unfortunately, I had a lemon. I returned the car to the bank after a 2-year lease with only 14,000 miles. The interior quality was poor, with a broken rear cargo cover and first aid kit door, illegible radio display when cold, and a fading dash display when hot. Additionally, there was an oil leak, and the car burned a lot of oil. The fuel sensors had to be replaced three times, and the Xenon light had to be replaced due to moisture absorption. The rear cargo light also had intermittent operation, and the dealer was unable to find the cause. Overall, I would not recommend this car, but I hope that others have better luck with it.

After reading some positive reviews by the editor and some owners, my daughter decided to give this car a try. Unfortunately, she experienced some issues during her trip to Milwaukee for a funeral. The car had 10,500 miles on it and was 1.5 years old. When the yellow light came on while driving from Chicago, the car stalled as soon as she exited the highway. She contacted the road assistance and the leasing company, who advised her to try starting the car again. Fortunately, the car started and they informed her that it was safe to continue driving it until she returned. However, the car stalled three more times on the way to the funeral, which was very inconvenient. As a result, she had to borrow my car and leave the Audi parked on the street. Despite these issues, we still believe that Audi is a great brand for luxury cars.
Ed Harber 2025-02-05

The car experienced several issues, including an electronic window malfunction and a broken LED dashboard display within three months of the warranty expiration. Additionally, there were problems with broken plastic in the console lid, cup holders, and seat levers, as well as bad CVC joints and suspension assemblies. Unfortunately, the car also experienced a broken camshaft and blown motor at 84000 miles, despite being well-maintained and not driven hard.
