Need some help on 2005 Audi A6
My 2005 Audi A6 (3.2L) has the following symbol that shows up
line across P in the dashboard. Is this the emergency brake that is gone bad? I have 102K miles. I will hook my VAG COM and see what codes are registering. My navigation system appears that it is stopped getting signal to and from the satellite, the antenna on the roof has gone bad? I was planning to do the following maintenance: 1. spark plugs 2. Fuel filter 3. Air filter 4. Serpentine belt 5. Front and Rear brakes 6. Oil Change 7. Flush out brake fluid. 8. Cabin filter 9. Flush out ATF fluid Any suggestions would be appreciated. |
have u isolated the issue to the antenna?
did it one day just stop working? im in the process of swapping out my antenna there is a TSB about the 05 06 antennas... the longer bigger ones they tend to break and open up a small gap where moisture gets in and slowly ruins the antenna the newer smaller one should be better design but may not install properly on our roofs bc our cars have 2 holes and newer cars may have only 1 hole |
Regarding Roof Antenna
Yes, one day it stopped getting GPS signal as the cursor on the Navigation screen was not moving.
The radio works OK. Can someone post pictures of how to remove the roof antenna and how to check it and how to test it? Does the VAGCOM helps trouble shoot this one? Thanks so much |
VCDS can be use to help isolate the issue .. u have to read the "measuring blocks" but for my situation this did not help
when u say radio do u also mean satellite radio do u have that does that work fine? i believe for our vehicles the am/fm reception is handled by the rear window... not by our shark fin u could remove the antenna and visually inspect it (i discovered water damage) its not too difficult depending on your skill level u have to remove part or whole roof liner and unscrew a 25T screw not sure how to test it... i dont have a voltage meter or experience like that im just going to chance it and get a replacement and hope its not my satellite module in the trunk |
Regarding shark fin roof antenna
Yes, I meant AM/FM radio works, not tried satellite radio.
will try to see what VAGCOM shows this weekend. How much is the shark fin antenna and where did you buy it from? |
haven't bought one yet .. but they pricey... going to try the used route 1st in case its my module in the trunk
ECS tuning has them new its annoying bc there's so many part #s for similar antennas and upgraded antennas here are two 4F5-035-503-H-GRU 4F5-035-504-H-GRU GRU i believe means primed and would need to be painted to match veh color 4F5 maybe be interchangeable with 8E5 H indicates version type seen diffrent PNs with K and A B C again so many out there CLICK for another AW thread this one may also be helpful CLICK |
i dont have all the pics to do a write up
but heres what i did from the rear seat u have to remove the rear piece of the roof liner (close to the top break light)it runs left to right .. it care pops out with the clips... proper trim removal tools help i believe the inside of c pillar line may also need to be popped out i used the driver side then i didnt pull off the main liner bc it requires removing the interior ceiling lights .. i just gently pulled it down temporarily to snap this pic http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/2459/img0357di.jpg u need a small ratchet with a T25 bit this is from the roof http://img802.imageshack.us/img802/3217/img0547vr.jpg this is the interior http://img577.imageshack.us/img577/1944/img0551n.jpg |
don flush ATF just replace filter or buy a kit http://www.thectsc.com/index.php?p=c...parent=61&pg=1
and add like 6 litter of ZF lifetime fluid 8, flushing will ruins your transmission. You need vag to do it. its easy. cabin filter good luck they are difficult to change, the other tome are easy. |
About the antenna I have the same problem, and I need to buy a new antenna, so look for one they are expensive my cost $500 they are fm,am,sat, radio sat, gsm too. that why it has those color and cables.

Ah I forget add to your list to clean the sunroof drains, I have my clog and the water enter to my roof and damage all..just use compressed air carefully to the hole.
