So did you ever get the oil temp sensor issue debugged?
I have same problem on a 2000 A6 2.7, no oil temp registered on cluster. New sensor & still no change?
Did you trace it down to a wiring issue?

I replaced the unit with a Hella one (after I ran additional grounds, etc.), because even the typically high quality (can't think of the name right now, other good German manufacturer) didn't work either.

So if i buy the "hella" brand oil temp sensor, my gauge will stop fluctuating? Mine goes from 125-225 degrees every few seconds when the engine is warm. 2000 audi a6 2.7t

lol ok. A simple “yes” would’ve sufficed.
Heaven forbid 4 years after installation, someone may have more info. Thank for breaking me into my first blog post ever 👍🏼

Maybe (if the sensor is bad).
But if you replace the sensor, I would only get OEM or Hella brand.
