Welcome salamanzer

Not sure about the C6, but did have some trouble fitting non OEM batteries in the C5 due to slightly different sizing, so that would be a consideration for C6 replacement.

On another note, you can also enable the battery level monitor in the MMI. I'll try to find the link.

Need a Vagcom, which I can help out with if you are in London, but sure you"ll find someone near you.

I'm in the south west.... i may be able to find someone local.... or absolute worst case a stealer....

This looks to be the battery, if i was to swap it would i have any issues with dropping the power in the car whilst the batteries are swapped, the replacement battery cost is getting picked up by the supplying car dealership

Any thoughts on this being an issue?

I had this.. Battery was replaced under warranty by Audi
