Replying to: spawn1 (Apr 16, 2009 6:54 pm) i had a 2006 A6 that was lemon law with same issue , it would go from comfortable 70 degree to scalding 180 degree , after many times in shop my dealer would not work on it any more , so i had to wait 45 days for audi tech to come , looking at my paper work it was a dual heater a/c valve unit had to be replaced , i can not tell you oh if that took care of the issue i hardly drove it after that and they tool it back ,   they could not or would not say if i had a potential fire hazard , good luck probably be cheaper to get rid of it if it is that problem ,

Replying to: audiluvblues (Apr 18, 2009 6:02 am) It is the abbreviation for a Technical Service Bulletin, which is how Audi advises its technicians on how to repair a known problem.

Replying to: tomm (Oct 31, 2005 4:57 pm) OK, it's years later, but would you mind telling me what the cause and the solution (cost?) was to fix this? It happened to me this week.

Replying to: straylo (Apr 19, 2009 2:25 pm) There is a TSB on this problem. Drop me a PM with your e-amil address, referencing the stuck ignition key, and I will e-mail you the TSB.

Replying to: straylo (Apr 21, 2009 6:24 am) Here's the number of it so you can give this info to the dealer   96 08 07   August 12, 2008. Supersedes Technical Service Bulletin Group 96 number 06-01 dated July 14, 2006 to update SRT.   Vehicle Information   Ignition switch cannot be turned on; key may stick in ignition   Condition ^ Engine will not start.   ^ Ignition cannot be turned on.   ^ In some cases, the ignition key cannot be removed from the ignition switch after attempting to start the engine.   Technical Background   No communication with the Access/Start Control Unit (J518), which may be caused by capacitor and or transistor damage within the Access/Start Control Unit (J518).   Production Solution   Introduction of an improved Access/Start Control Unit (J518).   This applies to ALL 2005 and some 2006.   NOTE: Keep in mind that this is not a free repair if you are out of warranty.

Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (Apr 21, 2009 7:05 am) TSB - 96 08 07 doesn't seem to apply here : The car is 2001 A6 Quattro 2.7T. I can start the car and everything runs fine including locking/security system, brake switch / transmission interlocks etc. I simply can not remove the ignition key. Is this simply a mechanical problem in the ignition lock or something more sinister like a software problem in a steering column control module. How many reasons could Audi engineers have for not releasing the key?
#1140 of 1203 TSB Info by erickpl Apr 22, 2009 (4:33 am)
While we're talking about 2005 A6's, are there any TSB's that address transmission hesitation?   I'd also be curious about the headlight TSB. My wife's A6 has given us that message a couple of times, though things continue to work fine.   -Paul
#1141 of 1203 Headlight adjustment??? by allmet33 Apr 22, 2009 (5:52 am)
Does anyone know if the HID headlights can be adjusted at all? I've got an '04 A6 Quattro and the light on the driver's side seems to have a slighly lower aim than the passenger side light. Can the adjustment be made, if so...how???   Mike
