    Wireless Android Auto finally working

    After an issue with the navigation system failing to start which wasn't resolvable by a reboot, I booked in my 2021 A6 for it to be looked at under warranty. Resolution was a complete reinstall of the software and the first thing I noticed after re-pairing my phone was the Android Auto /...

    Ride comfort on S-line / Black edition 20's

    I have a C8 saloon, 2021 Black Edition on stock 20" wheels and its absolutely fine, in fact I've not noticed any difference between these or the 19" I had on my 2019 C8 avant. Both are on the lowered suspension for s-line / black edition.

    USB Compatibility

    Thanks. I managed to find some further info in the manual which suggested they are USB 2.0 ports, but the manual doesn't refer to the A or C types so will give it a try and see.

    Return to the green pump

    Nice write up, thanks. I've just done the same, switching from 2019 TDI Avant to 2021 TFSI Saloon and am still discovering some of these. Good to know what is actually new as my 2021 has the tech pack whereas 2019 didn't. I need to check the WiFi and what is provided with the tech pack option...

    Car Does not start sometime from first attempt

    I had the exact same issues and they also started after the alternator recall work. Was in a 40 TDI S line Avant, 2019. Had been wondering how they could possibly have been related but seeing this thread appears to show they are. I had a number of instances after the recall where the engine...

    USB Compatibility

    My 2021 A6 Black Edition with Tech Pack was delivered today and as the USB ports have changed from the 2019 one I had I'm looking for a new storage device for in the car. Previously my C8 2019 had two USB-A, a microSD and a SIM slot in the centre arm rest, but the 2021 only has two USB-C...

    Android Auto/Car Play Users

    Yep, same problem here and I dont have the tech pack either. It is conveniently located over where the settings button is for Google Maps, preventing the satellite view from being selected. Also, should I be seeing the Google map view in the Audi navigation? Dont have virtual cockpit but...

    Force Map Update

    Does anyone know if there is a way to force a refresh of the maps in the MMI? Somehow my unit has failed to install one of the updates and now keeps telling me there is an update, but when I go to apply it fails. I've tried rebooting the MMI (hold the volume dial depressed for about 20 seconds...

    A6 lot of error

    So I've not been back to the dealer yet, but I think I've managed to work out how to replicate it. If I start up the car and drive, then park up, turn off the engine and get out of the car but don't lock the doors. Give it a couple of minutes and get back in, start it up and I get the list of...

    audi a6 40 tdi outside trim not lineing up properly.

    Interesting... I've the same issue and only spotted it tonight. The trim on the rear doors doesn't quite line up with the rest of the car, only by around 2mm or so. Will add it to the list when I next pop in.

    A6 lot of error

    Really keen to hear whether anything was available. Mine went in a couple of weeks back as I was having errors pop up for the headlamps. Camera fault, adaptive headlamp fault, lane assist fault, then a yellow triangle left. Turning off car for 5 minutes cleared it but it has happened 4 or 5...
