#935 of 1191 transmission? by biglio Dec 03, 2007 (3:11 pm)
I was happily driving my 1997 audi A6 quattro SW when at a stoplight, without any warning the car didn't engage the transmission anymore, the engine runs fine, the shift goes in all positions but it doesn't engage..... Is it the transmission? I had a mechanic over the phone tell me it's a 3000 USD job to replace the transmission, too much definitely for a car with 100K but I was wondering if ther isn't any way to "repair" a transmission, or maybe it's the fluid? (but such an abrupt stop, can it be the fluid?0. any advice, thanks, alessandro Replies to this message: 98AudiA6 (Jan 14, 2009 8:20 am) homeshop (Jan 14, 2009 10:20 am) 98AudiA6 (Jan 14, 2009 12:02 pm) and 5 more...
#936 of 1191 Re: Audi A6 Timing belt [hearthawk] by audilover Dec 04, 2007 (5:40 pm)
Replying to: hearthawk (Dec 02, 2007 4:31 pm) Hate to tell you that I just had mine replaced. But here in Ottawa, Canada, they charged us $1,250. Since our dollar is at par, I cannot explain the difference... But I believe that based on my recent research that if you want to keep your car (and Audis can go on forever), this is a worthwhile endeavour.   tx
#937 of 1191 1999 A6 Audi Serpentine Belt & Tensioner Repair by dcarters Dec 05, 2007 (4:07 pm)
Just paid $459 for the serpentine belt & tensioner repair on my Audi A6. Is this a fair price? Wholesale parts were less than $80 - but okay, so the local 'non-Audi' dealer made a few dollars ... looks like a bit of labor to reach this system.   Any comparable costs out there? Is this a fair price? Thanks.
#938 of 1191 Audi MMI failure by gaillaw Dec 07, 2007 (5:58 pm)
I was recently told that I had to replace the MMI in my A6 Avant. They said it failed because coffee spilled on it. The cup holder is right next to the electronics for the system. My dealer said it's not under warrenty. This seems to be an obvious design flaw. Should'nt the components be shielded from spills, or moved to a less vunerable place. I'd love to hear from others that may have had this problem. BTW, I don't remember spilling anything!

#940 of 1191 03 Service light w/ Navigation by kent13 Dec 13, 2007 (4:44 pm)
I have an 03 A6 2.7T with the Navigation controls where the owners manual says the controls should be for setting up the on board computer. How do I turn off the service light and access the menu controls? Also how much mileage on a full tank should I be getting with the 2.7T? Thanks, K
#941 of 1191 Keyless Entry Remote – New Batteries – Now what? by abdulhadi Dec 15, 2007 (9:38 am)
My keyless entry remote had worked fine since I bought my 99 Audi A6 2.8 liter 3 years ago. All of a sudden, the remote stopped working. I figured that the batteries are out and so I went and replaced them with the same but new batteries.   The keyless entry remote is still as dead as it was with the old batteries.   My question is:   Does any one know if there is anything else I need to reset? Can it be a fuse or something similar? What did you have to do resolve this problem yourself and without going to the dealer   Thanks.
#942 of 1191 Wipers! by tomm Dec 17, 2007 (5:53 pm)
They are the pits! We had some snow Thurs. night (I know, 5" and within a 6 hours) - and the wipers clogged. Then never finished the cycle - and stopped. (Had to be the driver's side!) So- I called the dealer - "Oh - we had many of those calls today - come in 1st thing Mon a.m. -all set". Well - not a "nut tightening" as suggested - a "linkage" - $605** - an "outside influence" - what?? snow? and this car is built in Germany?   (**yes- car still in warranty). Oh well- it happened to Honda and Toyota, too - accordiong to this multi-line dealer.   Any comments?? T.K
