So...I've this issue since now more than 2 months, and it's still not resolved. No dealer seem to be able to fix it. The problem is it seems not only related with the long time without driving, but also with low temperature… 3 weeks ago, my car was more than 60h without driving, but temperatures wer...

Ofc but good luck for look beneath a RS6 that is about 5cm up from the floor... Personally I'm very slim but I can't get there... Need to lift the car... It's not like if it was a SUV... And for lift the car need to move it inside.

Ye but in the workshop the temperature will be high enough for it doesn't leak, even after 48h probably... And if they keep it outside it will leak, but then they will drive the car inside for put it in the lift and they won't see where it came from :audibash: I'm getting crazy with this leak :evil:

I'm from Switzerland

Ok so last thursday I gave my car to the Audi dealer for check for this leak... They presurized the system at 2 bars during 6h and found nothing and told me that all is OK as there isn't any coolant residues visible in the hoses or so... Ofc, the next morning, I had a puddle in my garage, as well as...

Thanks for the informations. So it seems that my car do lose coolant ONLY if it stays long time without drive, more than 24h. All the past week, I drove my car everyday and I didn't had any leak (no missing coolant, no coolant spots on the floor). For try, I decided to let my car in my garage for al...

Thanks! Very interesting documentation!!

It's surprising that a small coolant leak can even be "normal" as it lubricates the seal (page 34).

But my leak is more than small as it do a spot on the floor (did 2 times in 3 weeks, so it doesn't leaks everyday) so it may be a faulty water pump.

Ahh OK and you had to change the whole waterpump? To get access to it to I believe they had to take the front of the car off. Ye that's my fear... I'm scared that I may then have bad alignment of the front of the car... Or some scratches :oops: My car is 4 YO, your was 3 YO, it's way too early for ...

Ahh OK and you had to change the whole waterpump?

Yes sure, it's purple with chemical smell and it doesn't dry from floor.

Hi, Today I just noticed a bad coolant leak under my RS6. This leak occured after 2 days without driving the car (yesterday wasn't there I'm 100% sure) so it seems that letting the car cold for a long time cause it. I'll call my dealer monday, my car have warranty, but I'm worried. Do you know what ...

There is so many threads about DRC, but I couldn't find any video of the noise. The best I found is the description on this thread stating it's a "woody noise like a cricket ball falling on the floor", and it's the noise I have, but I wonder if someone managed to record it and if there is a video I ...

Hi, I own a 2016 RS6 with the Audi Sport by Akrapovic option. Here in Switzerland at least, this expensive option was available for buy a RS6 with an approved Akrapovic titanium exhaust (with Audi Sport logo on) pre-installed. I really love it, some doesn't like the sound but I do, lot of crackles a...

Thanks for your answer. I called them and they insisted that all is OK with my car and they can't look at it until August because they are overbooked due to the post Covid19 situation... So... Nvm... I'm an accountant not a mechanic, I'm not supposed to know this and to know their job, I paid a lot ...

Hi, Thanks for your answer. So my dealer told me my car is OK, all has been verified before sale and it's not necessary to adjust the pressure in the suspension... So maybe it's the 2nd option, and the noise is just coming from the shock and that could be a normal, inherent issue... The noise is rea...
