2014 Audi S6 owner complaints

The turbo charger bearings broke and destroyed the entire engine. The car only has 64,000 miles on it, I have since heard of many other people having this problem. The estimated repair bill from the Audi dealer was $48,000, yes that's not a typo, $48,000 is way more than the car is even worth. We still owe $30,000 on a car that is essentially worthless without a running engine and is too expensive to fix. I believe Audi should do something about this since this is a known issue.

Turbo failure - car stalled while slowing on a major road. Audi is aware of the issue and the dangers of the failure, but has not issued a recall, even though they have issued multiple technical service bulletins regarding the issue and admitting to faulty parts causing the failure. It is only a matter of time before someone is injured or worse due to losing control of the vehicles acceleration and use of engine.

Camshaft Actuator, Camshaft positioner, Camshaft sensors. No warning or dash lights, car abruptly stopped on Highway while traveling 65mph 15 hours after Audi replaced replaced both fuel pumps and oil screen recall fix. Inspection of entire vehicle was done at time of recall fix and fuel pumps replaced. This is the second time in 30k miles that the camshaft components failed without warning. This is a major job and very expensive. Why hasn't this issue been recalled?? This is a safety hazard and a public safety issue. This could have caused a fatal accident while I was driving my family the store.

Two months into owning the car, my turbo failed. Car was towed to dealership and are trying to charge me 11,000$. 2 weeks into owning vehicle. Noticed oil level at minimum. Call dealer and was advised to add oil. Never was told to come into service to have it checked. Upon further investigation, I had found out first week of august about recall. While and prior to purchasing. Dealership never informed me about any safety recalls. Previous owner had put on some aftermarket parts, which have nothing to do with faulty manufacture part. Oil strainer in turbo had failed and caused turbo failure. Dealer personnel have stated “There is nothing we can do for you. Your car is not eligible for a recall repair.” Whilst Audi of America had stated that it is a manufacturing fault and they should r

EPC light and Engine light keep coming on and causing the car to go into limp mode while driving on highway at 55+ mph. This has happened three times. Each time I have taken the car back to Audi Marietta Jim Ellis. Each time I have paid thousands of dollars to remedy the problem. But other issues with the car engine keep arising. I have replaced the entire suspension at 60k miles... and Air struts at 70k. Engine mounts, Transmission mounts, replaced the battery twice. Dealership can not understand why the components are wearing out prematurely. The car is a safety issue and at this point I am fearful when I have to drive the car. This car is a lemon! But Audi will not buy the car back.

The contact owns a 2014 Audi S6. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to start. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the turbocharger needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that the repair would not be covered due to aftermarket parts. No additional assistance was provided. The contact stated the failure was due to NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V178000 (Engine and Engine Cooling). The failure mileage was approximately 78,000.

I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding the persistent and premature failure of motor and transmission mounts on the 2014 Audi S6, manufactured and sold by [Automaker Company Name]. This issue has resulted in significant inconvenience and financial burden and, more importantly, poses profound safety implications for the passengers and drivers of affected vehicles. Background: I own a 2014 Audi S6 with Vehicle Identification Number (VIN): [XXX]. Since purchasing the vehicle in 2018, I have experienced repeated failures of the motor and transmission mounts at alarmingly low mileage intervals. The motor mounts have been malfunctioning and requiring replacement approximately every 20,000 miles. This recurring issue has not only resulted in significant expenses but also raised seri

During a 500 mile road trip from ia to mo I experienced the first symptom. I was about 5 hours into the trip, cruise was set at about 70mph. All of the sudden a 'shudder' went through the car, like the car completely lost all power for a moment. Gets your attention in a hurry! I checked all the gauges, and there were no errors and everything appeared in order. We were about 15-20 minutes from the destination, so we decided to see if we would have any trouble making it. We made it the rest of the way down without incident. The next day we had to drive back to ia. In general the car drove okay. Although we did experience the shudder about 4 time on the trip home. I was surprised that we made it, based on the first shudder. Once I got home I decided to inspect the turbos, as they have

My specific year model 2014 as well as all 4.0tt models 2013-2014 have a well known issue in which, by faulty design, the oil supply to the turbos is restricted therefor causing the turbos to fail. The flawed design is in relation to the oil screen that clogs and starves the turbos of oil and causing failure. Audi has since began installing a revised version of this screen to alleviate these issues in models after2016. But they have ordered a recall for year models 2013-2016. Even with service intervals cut in half(oil changes at 5,000 miles instead of 10,000 miles) it is still a very common issue. When the turbos fail the engine is unable to run and can pose a serious danger to the driver as well as other motorists on the road. Not only is this a real and serious safety hazard, the co

Too fine of an oil screen, causing turbo failure due to starvation of oil to the turbos. Now I need a very very costly repair. Several $1000's.

The turbo failed while driving the car at normal speed trying to enter freeway. Luckily I was able to get the car to the side of the road safely. The vehicle has always been serviced by Audi on prescribed intervals. After researching, I found a TSB on the oil screens that feed the turbos. The dealer (Audi Miramar, San Diego) told me this is not/was not a required repair and quoted me $16k to replace the turbos and replace the faulty screen. I ended up taking the car to another authorized Audi repair center and got them repaired for $9k. Audi needs to address this before someone has an accident.

Both turbocharger catastrophic failure due to clogged turbocharger oil screen.

Suspension was replaced at 40,000 miles do to normal wear and tear. That was Audi excuse. Suspension was replaced again at 63,000 miles. Engine mounts and transmission mounts were replaced at 63,000. Now at 75,000 miles, engine camshaft has failed and almost caused me to lose control of the car. Oil is changed every 3k miles and all maintenance is up to date and always done on time or before required. Car always smell like gas. Inspection found no issues. At this point, I am concerned with the safety of myself and my family because this car is a daily driver. I have contacted Audi of usa for assistance. But Audi is unresponsive. I have all service records but unable to upload due to file size restrictions.

While driving, received notification of a suspension fault. Was able to drive vehicle home, and found code for suspension C104600. Cleared code, and didn't see it return. Car sat a few days, and next time it was driven, received cascade of MIL warnings for suspension auto leveling failure, auto leveling headlights, adaptive cruise, lane keeping, and auto braking. Console advised to keep speed below 35 MPH. Had to quickly exit the road as result. Limped vehicle home on side roads, found codes across multiple systems. Suspension would not raise, and all coda would immediately return upon clearing. Vehicle was evaluated by local shop, and diagnostics show failed suspension air compressor and relay.

Turbo failure - car stalled while slowing on a major interstate, causing multiple near-collisions. Audi is aware of the issue and the dangers of the failure, but has not issued a recall, even though they have issued multiple technical service bulletins regarding the issue and admitting to faulty parts causing the failure. It is only a matter of time before someone is injured or worse due to losing control of the vehicles acceleration and use of engine.

My turbo chargers blew due to oil starvation while driving about 45mph in the city while driving straight.

I was driving hit a puddle of water, then all the sudden my power steering went out. I took it in to get looked at, and I'm being told it will cost several thousand dollars to fix the power steering. In addition, this vehicle has air in the suspension, but it now makes sounds when it lifts and takes a longer period of time to lift than normal. Something is effected in my suspension, as well. My vehicle only has 67,689 miles on it, and it should not be having power steering problems from driving through a puddle of water. Lastly, after calling in to Audi, they did a search for the warranty, and Audi did add an extended warranty on the power steering of 125,000 miles or 10 years, which ever occurs first. This means they know about the power steering issue, and with my car being just ov

Power steering system completely failed on numerous occasions. 18 months ago, power steering failed and whole power-steering system was replaced by dealer under warranty. Now, 1 month ago, power steering completely failed again, for two days, and then resumed normal operation once I left snow county (I don't know if the cold had anything to do with it, despite the fact that the system is electric-assisted, not hydraulic). I took vehicle to my local dealer that replaced power steering system 18 months ago, and now they claim there is nothing wrong - but they suggested I could replace the whole power steering module again for $5700, since the car is no longer under warranty. On both occasions, power steering failed, then resumed, and then failed in a repeated manner every 30 seconds or

2014 AUDI S6- Consumer states " I am writing to file a claim for a vehicle recall on my 2014 Audi S6. The date of the recall is March-20-2022. The NHTSA Campaign# is 22V-178. The Audi Recall# is 21H7. The specific defect that is being recalled is Turbo failure. In early 2021, I experienced multiple problems with my vehicle that were consistent with the recall, such as Rough Idling, Difficult to Start, and Stalls. It was fixed at a local Audi dealership in May-2021 (prior to the recall announcement). I was responsible for the repair expenses, which totaled $4198.29, for the Turbo and oil strainer replacement. When I became aware of the recall, I filed a claim with Audi to request reimbursement. Audi's recall website indicates that there are no recalls pending for my vehicle, but the Model

I was driving behind an Audi s6 (one of the newer models with full LED lighting) at night. I found its LED brake lights blindingly bright. The driving lights are very bright by themselves, but they're borderline tolerable, however brake lights when they come on are extremely bright - I could not look at that car when driving behind it, it was too painful to look at. I had to take my eyes off that car and off the road ahead of me as a result of this for extended periods of time. I could not have those taillights within my field of vision, they hurt even when I tried to look away from that Audi. I do not feel safe driving behind new audis and other cars that use extremely bright LED taillights. I could have crashed because when I was slowing down behind that Audi that lit up its taillights w
