Re: TPMS Error Code 01521 after 10mins of driving

Did you manage to solve this tpms issue? I have a similar one with mine - all was fine then one day the tpms warning came up and since then none of the sensors are seen by the car. I have tried resetting it but it can not learn them. VCDS shows zero on all four sensors. I have scanned the sensors wi...

TPMS decided to stop working.

As per title the TPMS decided to stop working, just randomly near the end of a three hour drive the warning pinged up on the dash and it has not been able to connect to the sensors again bar one 10 min period where we didn't have the dash screaming at us on start up. I have tried re-learning them on...

Re: EVAP help please

According to the ElsaWin schematics, the lilac tracer goes to pin 2 and the blue to pin 1, usually the pin numbers are moulded somewhere on the multi-plug. Thank you for your reply, I did manage to find a wiring diagram in the end and checked them - they were correct although I don't like the wire ...

Re: EVAP help please

I am still trying to fix this issue (fuel cap seal did not fix the problem) and have tested the N80 valve with an external power supply and can hear the valve opening and closing but one thing I have noticed is that the two wires going to the valve have been cut and replaced with different colours. ...

Re: EVAP help please

There's literally just 4 things in the system, the fuel cap, the N80 valve, the carbon canister and the pipework, so having replaced everything else so far maybe look at the fuel cap or maybe a pipe/connection has rusted/split. To find a split etc you could try a vacuum test at the canister end as ...

EVAP help please

We bought our RS6 in October and it is a lovely car with only one fault - P0441 EVAP Emission control 002 incorrect flow intermittent. The guy we bought it from had already replaced the N80 and made us aware of the fault saying he thinks it is the charcoal canister. The car runs fine, just the annoy...

Re: C6 cooling fan normal behaviour

The Secondary Air Injection (SAI) pump fires up for the 1st 30 seconds or so on a "cold" start but once the engine is warm it'll not fire up again until the engine cools back down If you open the bonnet, the sound comes from the front passenger side (UK cars), its very loud and is a much higher pit...

Re: C6 cooling fan normal behaviour

Are you certain that its the rad fans running on start up? The air injection pump on my car can be very loud at times and my partner has in the past likened it to a jumbo jet. Now there's a thing for me to learn about then! It sounds like fans, doesn't the injection pump run all the time though? Th...

C6 cooling fan normal behaviour

Potentially an odd question - What is the normal behavior of the cooling fans on a C6 RS6? I'm interested in when they come on on yours, and how often? Having recently bought an RS6 the normal behavior is a bit unknown. Of all the ones we looked at we didn't even start two of them up due to oil leak...

Re: Looking into buying an RS6 C6

Update - We have bought the fourth one we viewed. We looked at two yesterday, first one was an 85k lower than average mile one with oil leaks, scuffs, faded tailgate lights and a long list of faults stored when I did a scan with VCDS. It is also mapped but by an unknown tuner. The second one we look...

Re: Coolant Pipes with engine in?

See attached pdf for pics The known problem of the coolant pipes in the wheel arch corroding has come to visit my RS6. I went from no leak when I left the house to arriving home and a jet of coolant coming out the pipe and the joy of watching as my Audi widdled its coolant all over my garage floor....
