Audi A6 Typ 4G: Repair Information
Wire Routing and Securing
When loosing or removing and installing hydraulic, pneumatic or electrical lines, draw sketches or take pictures. This will ensure they are installed in their original positions.
Contact Corrosion
Contact corrosion can occur if incorrect fasteners (bolts, nuts, washers, etc.) are used.
For this reason, only fasteners with a special surface coating are installed.
In addition, rubber or plastic parts and adhesives are made of non-conductive materials.
If there are doubts as to whether parts can be reused, use new parts. Refer to the Parts Catalog.
Note
- The use of original replacement parts is recommended, they are tested and are compatible with aluminum.
- The use of Audi accessories is recommended.
- Damage due to contract corrosion is not covered under warranty!
