Audi A6 Lighting problems by year

Both daytime running lights have progressively changed from white to yellow and lost intensity. The discoloration began on one side and later appeared on the other, concentrated at the lower angled section of the daytime running light. There are no warning lamps, messages, or stored fault codes. Independent automotive lighting specialists who service this model describe the cause as heat from the daytime running light LED degrading the end of the clear light-guide tube inside the sealed headlamp assembly. The...

When the turn signal is activated to go RIGHT, the turn indicator flashes LEFT (both the arrow on the instrument panel and the exterior lights). Since the driver is not consciously looking at the dash, this causes an unexpected lane change and dangerous (and illegal) lane change. There are no warning lights that there is an error/problem. This is an intermittent but frequent problem and replicable. I have not taken the issue to the dealer but research suggests that the turn signal stalk must be replaced. Searching...

Side marker light in headlight stopped working

-Total electrical system failure (dealer confirmed starter generator). -After a short time of cautions followed by warnings, engine and all electrical components quit working. (no hazard lights). no way to warn other drivers on the road or highway to a malfunctioning vehicle -dealer confirmed starter generator needs replacement. waiting on part (60+ days and counting) -caution and warnings started appearing about 15 miles before the car became completely underivable. (every electrical system caution began appearing followed by warnings of impending engine shutdown)

Starter/Generator Alternator failed and caused the battery to die ultimately leading to losing full power of the car on highway. Warning lamps were present and indicated "electrical system malfunction and contact the dealer for service." Car lost full power on the way to dealership and almost resulted in a crash. Component has been inspected by the Audi Dealer and confirmed to be the issue. Symptoms appeared very quickly and within 30 minutes of the symptoms the car was inoperable.

Engine oil leaks this is a "normal" problem that should not be accepted by the consumer and the adaptive headlights cord broke off. Will not turn with vehicle

Headlight flickering and turns off with dipped light warning. Rear lights warnings of bulbs out random times. Shutting lights off and on resolves issue with headlights.

Tl* the contact owns a 2008 audi a6. While driving 55 mph, smoke entered the cabin of the vehicle. The contact noticed that the passenger side brake light melted and the driver side brake flickered.

Blinking drivers side headlight. Audi has technical service bulletin and will not repair for free !! Tere reasoning is is that I have over 100 k miles. I reported this to them when I had 62 k miles and they said it never blinked when they tested it (not true) this is a major safety hazard at night and they want to charge me over $1,000 dollars to fix....This should be a recall as it is a safety issue!!!In fact audi corporate is aware and are picking and choosing who gets the repair for free!

Left headlight low dipping error left headlight goes out while drivimg

I entered today's date and mileage because I had to deal with it again this evening, but this problem has been occurring since the car had 70000 miles on it. It has now gotten so bad that I have to turn the lights on and off every 30 seconds or so while driving so they will stay on enough to get the car home. I do not drive it at night if I do not have to. This problem needs to be fixed. 141 Out of 188 complaints you have received on this car are due to people's headlights going out while driving at night. We...

While replacing a headlight bulb I noticed that the insulation on wires inside the headlight compartment had flaked off, exposing at least 1 inch of multiple wires (low beam and high beam) all along the length of those wires. Both headlights show the same symptom. High beam wires (+v and gnd) are held together with a zip tie and there is flaking insulation all around it, so using the high beam could result in a short circuit inside the headlight housing. As all of the wires are in close proximity, it is possible that normal use of the car (e.G. Bouncing along a rough road) could cause the wires to contact each other and short circuit. *Js

Our 2001 audi and many other cars like it have plastic headlights that perform well for several years. Then in any sunny location like the us southwest they begin to fog up and become progressively more opaque. This results is more light scatter using the headlamps at night: the headlamps no longer focus a narrow beam of light on the roadway ahead. Due to fogged, opaque head lamp light scatter visibility is reduced putting especially pedestrians and bicycles at risk while driving at night. Also, oncoming...

The head light would work sometimes and others it would not took vehicle the dealer was told must remove bumper and replace head lamp assembly complete the cost would be around $ 800.00After researching specific problem head lamp was replaceable without bumper removal and without headlamp assembly replacement cost 100.00 Price of bulb. Audi of america should be able to troubleshoot this problem very easy and they are purposely trying to rip the customer off. Not to mention the danger a intermittent head light posses on the road dip head light error. *Tr
