#947 of 1190 Re: Anyone know electric problems? [audia6tt] by shawn757 Dec 30, 2007 (7:28 pm)
I bought the A6 quattro on the 28th too, and on Sat, I see the signal lights flashing when I went to the garage and the dash also turned on abs etc. Whats wrong here? Had to take it to the dealer after jump starting it. They said they have to look into it have the battery checked out. Funny thing is when I went to buy it the dealer had the car engine running he said it just came from the other dealer and they just checked it out but I think they knew it before selling it to me and didn't say a word.

Replying to: shawn757 (Dec 30, 2007 7:28 pm) The Audi A6 is a car to be leased for 3 years under warranty and then returned to the dealer. I made the unfortunate decision to buy a 2000 A6 2.7T new and if the extended warranty was not purchased, the car would have bankrupted me. Bought new for $42,500 and sold in 06 w/ 100,000 miles for $11,500. Devaluation is probably about average for this type of car. Considering that Audi is an "engineering company" with features that are cutting edge, some of the problems I encountered were indeed baffling: ....wheel shake when braking ....4 time replacement of front discs ....heater squeal in wintertime ....valve cover/cam chain gasket leaks ...alarm failure w/ signal lights flashing/windows going up/down on their own ....amazingly high normal maintenance charges from dealer ....driver's side key lock failure ....twin turbo failure even w/frequent synthetic oil changes   Your problem is problably the alarm system failing, which affects the entire electronic operation of the car. Make sure you have a good warranty while owning this car!

#950 of 1190 BLUETOOTH by kolas Jan 10, 2008 (7:26 pm)
My Treo 700W and my AUDIA6 2006 4.2l Bluetooth do not have a strong connection. I get a good signal for about a minute or two then it is lost. The dealer suggested getting the bluetooth software in the car updated or getting a Blackberry Curve, which he said configures perfectly....   Does anyone else have this problem and have any suggestions?   Thanks.

Replying to: kolas (Jan 10, 2008 7:26 pm) i have a 2005 A6 and use to have a Treo 650, the Bluetooth would work but often would cut out after a period of time. I switched phones to the Curve and have not had any issues. Problem is with the Phone not the Car's bluetooth.
#953 of 1190 Audi A6 Engine Melt - Does Anyone Know.... by helennyc Jan 12, 2008 (4:42 pm)
While driving on a highway my Audi lost power within 30 seconds of hearing a loud beep and seeing a large icon on the dashboard. Evidently, this was due to a thermostat that was stuck. When stopped the car steamed or smoked and the engine was melted. Does any one know if there should have been another warning light since there was none that we received.   Thanks,

#955 of 1190 A6 died in sub-zero weather by tom155 Jan 19, 2008 (7:41 pm)
I drove the car last night but this am nothing happened when I turned the key. No click, nothing. A battery jump did nothing, no starter click, nothing. Any clues? Replies to this message: audilover (Jan 21, 2008 7:31 am)

Replying to: tom155 (Jan 19, 2008 7:41 pm) Actually, although my car is 8 years old and I “love it “ dearly, I have found that if it is left parked in cold weather from more than 3-4 days, it might not start. This has happened a couple of times, and the car was towed away to figure out what happened. Both times, the car started after arrivng at the service station. Maybe "it" was thrilled with the attention. The last time, it was even still outdoors when the mechanic simply turned the ignition. They think that it has something to do with the oil not staying in all of the spots that it should, due to the cold. But no defitnite answer.
