Hi All,

after almost 7 years and 42000 miles of happy driving I have decided to downsize and sell my RS6 Avant.
I have posted details in the cars for sale section.

Hi All, after almost 7 years and 42000 miles of happy driving I have decided to downsize and sell my RS6 Avant. Details are - 2008 (08 plate), 59700 miles, Sepang Blue with black nappa leather interior, unmodified with full Audi Main Dealer service history. Last main service at 53443 miles included ...

Hi, for the past week or so I have been getting intermittent "Oil Sensor" warnings. The yellow dash lamp seems to come on and go off somewhat randomly whilst driving. I have checked the oil level and it is fine. There is no sign of any leaks. I have topped it up to the upper half of the dipstick jus...

Thanks for the suggestions, finally got round to taking a look. TomRS - I presume this need some diagnostic equipment that I don't have access to. Shoppinit - have checked fuses 32, 33, 34 all OK, also 13 (Steering column switch module) and 42 (Steering Column adjustment), also both OK, so no joy. A...

Has anyone experienced problems with the electric steering column adjustment. Mine has stopped working (Up/down adjustment only, In/Out still works) for the second time. The first time the dealer said I had put too much weight on the wheel when getting in/out of the car, fixed the fault and charged ...

Can anyway suggest the best technique to get the fastest standing start in an unmodified C6.
Is it best just to press the loud pedal or to hold it on the brakes at a specific RPM and if so will this do any damage?

Anyone else having problems with the lacquer coming off of the painted plastic parts of the car leaving the paint exposed (Sepang Blue), particularly the small panels where the front wheel arches meet the door cills and the leading edge of the rear bumper (presumably initially caused by stone chippi...

Thanks. Yes have had Audi Roadside assist out since original posting but they don't have the equipment to help. Apparently they are going to send a different technician/vehicle back on Monday. Still amazed that a simple battery disconnect can seemingly render the vehicle unusable

Whilst investigating a problem this afternoon related to a persistant flat battery over recent weeks (battery is new but will not hold its charge for more than 1 week if car is not used - I assume this is not normal) I have somehow managed to immobilise my car and it no longer recognizes either of t...

Car is due in at dealer for service in a couple of weeks time (apx. 23000 miles done). I am aware it will need new front pads as the light has just started to come on occasionally and they are looking a bit thin. However can anyone advise how to judge if new front discs are required. Mine have a sli...

Finally got round to checking the washer bottle. It is easily accessible by removing the passenger side wheel arch liner. The bottle is made of two moulded parts joined together with a plastic welded seam. All the pipes are intact but the bottle is leaking from the plastic seam below the rear washer...

8000 miles to date in my C6 Avant. Averaging 15.7 mpg (brim to brim - 16.2 according to readout so its quite accurate). Range from low of 9 to high of 21 mpg. Mainly short runs from a cold start. Very little Motorway running. Just fitted third set of tyres at 25K miles (car had done 17K when purchas...

Thanks for this, but RS6 washer bottle is on the left side and looks pretty inaccessible. However I hadn't considered access via the wheel arch guard so may be worth a try.

Hi Guys, became aware last week that rear washer on my Avant was not working (although I could hear the pump running). Tried the front washers and these were OK, however after a few front washes the low level warning came on. Even though I had filled the washer bottle a week before I assumed this wa...
