    2014 Audi A6 allroad 3.0 bitdi with glow plug spiral flickering and MOT failure for soot

    According to my garage it's the turbo's and they think they need to be replace. The price is just out of this world, so I'm going to sell the car as is. My loss unfortunately.

    2014 Audi A6 allroad 3.0 bitdi with glow plug spiral flickering and MOT failure for soot

    All, can I assume this fault refers to the electronic unit on the back of the turbo's. It has partnumber 805713-0008 & serialnumber RE400336 printed on it. I looks as if it is just mounted with 3 bolts to the turbo but not sure if a lot more is involved in setting it up once a new unit would be...

    2014 Audi A6 allroad 3.0 bitdi with glow plug spiral flickering and MOT failure for soot

    They have testing equipment that count the number of particles. 2M where the limit is 1M Would you happen to have a part number for that valve. By the looks of what I can see on the engine and where the vacuum lines go from the waste gate actuator, there are 2 of them.

    2014 Audi A6 allroad 3.0 bitdi with glow plug spiral flickering and MOT failure for soot

    Hi, My cas recently developped an issue with the flickering glow plug spiral coming up. I read the ECU (see below). It points to a turbo control valve/solenoid. Could these 2 problems (solenoid and DPF failed test) be interrelated? Thursday,24,April,2025,20:44:31:20499 VCDS -- Windows Based...

    2014 Audi A6 allroad 3.0 bitdi

    To be honest Uwe, I don't think the EGR part is correct. It needs pressure to go from the exhaust side to the intake side which is at lower pressure, so it takes exhaust even from before the turbo. I know for a fact that it will certainly not take it from behind the DPF as I had a problem before...

    2014 Audi A6 allroad 3.0 bitdi

    In limp mode? The actual goal was to save the dpf and mount a straight through most of the year to only put the dpf in place when having to pass tech inspection. I know this is not legal, but they're hunting the diesels down here right now. And the dpf of a bitdi is superexpensive to replace.

    2014 Audi A6 allroad 3.0 bitdi

    Hi, Would like to know if you replace the downpipe with DPF by a straight through pipe, if the ECU will throw a fault code. (pressure sensors will be reinstalled). I'm not sure whether it expects to see some pressure differential or not. If not it should be ok, if yes evidently it will start...

    VCDS not working after update

    Hi, the program recently updated to a newer version. It says that it needs to update the firmware as well, but when going to test it does that ok, and then config, it says it's unable to open the interface which keeps repeating itself. After ok'ing the dialog box and pressing update, it says i...

    Audi A6 allroad C7 developped stumble at low rpm/decel

    Hi, The car has developped a stumble which doesn't always occur but is annoying. It seems at quite low rpm. Below is the readout. What I notice is a couple of engine errors. The last one of which (taken after a stumble) was related to an exhaust temperature sensor. I checked the sensors. 2...

    UDS - Re-adapt Adaptive Suspension to default position -

    All, After discussing with Uwe I redid it and this time when entering each value for the height I waited a little while and then went back with the 'go back' option. It then retained the entered value and now it works again. Thanks.

    Need urgent help with level control

    Hi Uwe, Thanks a million for your help. I redid it to every last letter. Seems that after entering each value, you have to let it have some time to sync and then press go back. Now it accepted the values and the faults are gone.

    Hi Uwe, is there anyone you can ask? I won't use the reset adaptions, but I'll need to resolve this. Is there no way I can roll back the permanently disable?
