#1145 of 1203 To flush or not to flush, that is the ??? by allmet33 Apr 29, 2009 (10:30 am)
I took my '04 A6 3.0 Quattro to the dealer to get the oil changed. I opted for the synthetic and the service tech informed me that my next oil change would be in 10k miles...I'm cool with that. I asked him about servicing the transmission and he then informed me that they don't do anything with the transmission as it has a lifetime fluid in it. Every car I've owned, I've had to serivce the transmission every 30-50k miles for obvious reasons. Should I listen to what the service tech is telling me and leave it alone or should I take it someplace that will flush and fill the transmission? If I do the latter, what type of fluid should I purchase for the transmission?

#1147 of 1203 2001 Audi A6 power steering problem by ymote Jun 05, 2009 (11:39 pm)
Hi,   My 2001 Audi A6 has power steering issue. When the car is parked with outside temperature under 60F for a night, the second morning the power steering is very heavy. I have to drive it for a while and restart the engine to get back the smooth steering. If I just drive it without restarting the engine, it won't get better. Looks like a sensor issue. Is anybody having the same issue? How can I fix it. Thanks.   -- Yue

Replying to: chicagotiger (Jun 10, 2009 11:00 am) I would like to suggest to you that you keep every piece of paper on your car , never leave dealership with out all paper work that shows what they have done , and be sure that you take a loaner car , never not take a loaner   i hope that this is a isolated problem , but i doubt it and not to make you have a sleep less night , but see what your Lemon Law are in your state ,   i been there and sorry to say it was a real pain but my only mistake was for 45 days that my car sat waiting on a Audi Tech to come to fix it i did not take a loaner , that plays a part of paper trail , and there is nothing about audi and customer care   good luck

#1151 of 1203 Starting probelms by audi_a6_man Jun 15, 2009 (11:44 pm)
I have a 1997 Audi A6 which won't start. The problem is that when you turn the key in the ignition all the lights come on and then go out as usual but the engine doesn't turn or starter motor make any sounds. It's as if the ignition has been disconnected from the engine. Also the remote central locking has stopped working.   Has anyone come across this problem before??

Replying to: audi_a6_man (Jun 15, 2009 11:44 pm) See if a jumpstart works in this situation or not.   If not, I'd suspect corroded battery cables, and if they check out okay, I'd suspect a bad neutral safety switch. (presuming you have an automatic)-- or a bad clutch switch, if you have a manual transmission.
#1153 of 1203 Water leaking quickley on 1995 Audi A6 avant. by jbbkt Jun 21, 2009 (9:41 am)
Hi I have an audi A6 avant 2.0 which is heavily leaking water. I know where the leeak is from. It is leaking from a plastic t-piece which connects to the engine. One end of the component is square this is where it connects to the engine. The other end is round and has a large (pipe approx 1"-1 1/2") connected to it. From the T-piece is a slightly smaller pipe. Ontop are 2 sensors. I need to replace this part but am unable to find th name of the component or where to get this part from. I live in France and am reluctant to take the car to an audi dealer as it looks like a job I can do myself. I have 2 pictures, one a close up of the component and the second a picture showing where it is positioned which can be emailed if they are any help, I dont know how to add them to the post   Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give.   Kind Regards
