How many have had to replace their ignition switch? I looked on the web, and I found recall on A4 switches. Why not A6 switches? I have also seen many posts on various messageboards where A6 owners have had this problem. I guess I would be less upset if I hadn't just shelled out $230 on brake pads, and this $200 on ignition for my month old A6 with 34,00 miles. Oh well nobody said it was going to be cheap to ride with class.

Fortunately mine was covered under warranty... something in the $200 range for parts and labor. Much easier to turn now! =)

Both my A6's have had their ignitions switches replaced-'96 FWD and '98 Avant quattro

Is this the stiff switch syndrome ?
Does it affect any electrical functionality, I have looked at an A6 that would not operate the starter motor at all. Battery was totally flat and it would not jump start.

Audi/WW make the worst ignition switches!!!

The part is really inexpensive, but the labor kills you. They should get their act together on this.

Muhammad,

I thought you were selling the 100???

Do you know the recall code for the ignition switch? I am going to need to get mine changed.
