Not sure about the vibration as it may be the tires, but all the other should absolutely be covered. Take it in and have the service advisor look at it.

Well, make this 4th time in 9 months my 05 A6 will be back to the dealer for the AirBag light. I am told all the usual things by Audi, they are opening a "hotline" blah blah...bottom line is, I'm beginning to wonder if this problem will ever be fixed, or is it a sign of a greater electrical problem...I get the impression this could be a serious problem, I've read about the Lemon Law in California, but does anyone think I would have a case? My car will have been out of service a combined 18-20 days as a result of this latest snafu. I love the car, but I hate this.

I had the same problem with mine a few weeks after I picked it up. It turned out to be a sensor in the rear seat. It has now been 9 months and the problem has not returned. Good luck.

Round navigation scroll wheel on the MMI has come loose by legendman

2005 Audi A6 3.2
 
The round navigation scroll wheel on the MMI has come completely loose (as in, it comes off in your hand) and needs to be repaired or replaced.
 
Can anyone advise if they have had (or heard) of this problem; and how long this type of repair will take and if they need the car over night?

Re: 2005 Audi A6 [arj1] Battery/Charging Problems by legendman

The reason that the battery drains in my A6 (2.4Se petrol) is that the brake lights come on overnight!
 
That's astonishing. How did you discover that?
 
There may be another reason too for the battery being weak. The A6 has software which controls when the battery is charged, and how soon the recharging process is commanded to commence.
 
I found this out after I kept noticing that the battery level indicator in the MMI would show that the battery was very low despite my having driven the car for one hour and a half -- more than enough time to charge it up past the levels the MMI screen displayed.
 
Audi did a software adjustment No problem since. This might have been covered in a TSB, not sure (Audi technical service bulletin).
 
In any event, you may want to ask your dealer whether or not your car's battery management software was checked during prior visits for service.

All Wheel Drive problems by jessicak2

I have a 1999 Audi A6. I used to have a Passat and it handled great in the snow. My Audi "fish-tails" on every corner even when I'm going really slow. It does not stop well at all. It seems like I may have problem with my AWD...does anyone know anything about this?

Has anyone found a good extended warranty company to use to Audi's. One that's not extremely expensive? Thanks!

Probably a tire selection. What are you currently using for tires?

Mine was a rear seat sensor as well, which fixed it the last time. Now, they are telling me they are getting different fault codes. Who knows, but at least I have an awesome 4 cylinder Chrysler Cirrus rattle trap to drive in the mean time!

I had a similar problem after my accident. In my case, the button didn't come off in my hand, but would spin freely without any friction and didn't change volume at all. It was replaced in a half-day session. I called them and they preordered the part, then I brought the car in when it arrived. Overall, very painless. No further problems with it since.
