    Every full tank I have 2 occasions of rough idle and the radiator stays on

    Radiator staying on would suggest a dpf regeneration cycle, which could also explain the idle speed changes

    C16 RKC's car ownership thread

    The 2.0 TDi C6s come with the Multitronic gearbox, basically a CVT gearbox. This gearbox is absolutely not "sealed for life". It had a bad reputation early on its life for failure and whilst that was resoved overtime the key to a long life for this box is a fluid chage every 38k miles. Not...

    Facelift Bluetooth issues

    Sounds like it is a facelift car but with MMI 3G Low, unit is the glove box with SD Card slots means it is 3G. To begin with only the TDie version came with Sat Nav as standard so there are a lot of cars out there without Sat Nav. By the end of 09 Sat Nav was standard across the range

    Try pairing from the phone (ie have the phone look for the car rather than the car look for the phone)

    Looking to step up to A6

    Age will be an issue. With the 2.0 best to go for a facelift (late 58 on) as this has the Common Rail rather than PD engine. PD engines suffered from oil pump and turbo issues but it would be fairly safe to assume that these will have been sorted on all cars by now. With the facelift there...

    Fuel cap

    If it is a similar mechanism to the one on the C7 then I suspect trying to use the emergency opening will be unproductive, I have just had mine replaced as it jammed, a not uncommon fault on the C7. The mechanism works on the basis that the piece (I think 9 on the diagram) rotates when you...

    Bluetooth stopped working?

    No recurring issues with that so would recommend finding someone with VCDS to see what errors are being shown. What happens if you search for the car from your phone? Might also be worth trying to delete the pairing on the phone and seeing if you can recreate it

    Bluetooth stopped working?

    Sounds like the Bluetooth module has stopped working. Have you tried resetting the MMI (do a search to find the buttons to press). Also you do not say the age of your car and whether it is a saloon or avant. If it is pre-facelift and an avant then it could be that water from the rear washer has...

    Audi Avant Dab

    I think on the Avant the aerial is already in the side window glass.

    Servicing??

    The article refers to the PD 2.0TDi engine that was used in the pre-Facelift C6 but replaced in the facelift model with the Common Rail engine. My understanding is that the oil pump issue was not carried over to the CR engine (presumably a new design of pump was used). The OP does not say which...

    2002 A6 estate 2.4 multitronic problem

    As said get the gearbox fluid changed, should have been done 3 times so far (every 38k or 4 years). At that age the cost of new gearbox from Audi may be almost as much as the car, a specialist auto transmission place may be a better bet than a dealer for both the fluid change ans also any other...

    2G MMI low TMC always crossed out?

    As you have the CD Based 2G Sat Nav (with the Red monochrome MMI Screen) you cannot get maps displayed on the MMI screen that was only offered with the DVD 2G MMI High system

    2G MMI low TMC always crossed out?

    I think (from memory and I never owned a car with 2G MMI so may be wrong) it is one of the sub-menus under the Car/Settings option. It is fairly obvious when you look for it

    2G MMI low TMC always crossed out?

    If I recall correctly (flame proof suit on in case I get flamed!) early versions of the MMI Software did not include TMC functionality and as you have a 2006 car with MMI Low you could fall into that category. be worth posting on here what version of the MMI software you have and other can...

    Advice for buying from a private sale

    Remember that a survey like this will tell you everything that is wrong with the car (if only to cover their backs) and you will need to use some judgement as to how serious any issue is. I suspect if you had a brand new car straight from the factory subject to a third party inspection they...

    SatNav Data Blocked C6 S Line Tdi

    Are you sure there is no DVD in the drive. Audi went through a phase of locking the DVD drive with the navigation disk in it. To unlock it you need VCDS. Easy way to check is to either try to put another disk (Audio CD) in and see what happens or in "Media" select "Source". It should show...
