Dashboard removal for Audi A6 |
|
|
Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to remove the top part of the dashboard (i.e.
the bit thats goes to the front window) on a '99 Audi A6? A really
loud and annoying rattle has just developed there and I've got to fix
it before I can bear to drive the car!
(As I am in the UK I don't have easy access to a service manual.)
TIA, Mark

Keep jamming stuff down until the rattle disappears.

I know. However they don't do one for the A6.

I have seen many auctions for CD-ROMs on ebay. However they all
appear to be for U.S. models. I don't know all the differences
between UK and US models but I do know that they don't cover my engine
since the UK models have 1.8 and 2.4 petrol engines which are not
available in the US.
I may buy one anyway but it would be a risk.

Sort of. They do one for the older model and I hadn't spotted the year
of yours.

Yep, have had a few cars with "one piece" type dash covers. |
on my old Skoda Favorit, it was 35 screws, including taking off the
glovebox lid, removing the glove box, taking out a brace, removing the
small binacles holding some switch gear, then taking off the
protectcover over the dials, then removing the dial cluster, then
pulling the steering wheel and surround, after that the lower console
needed to come off.
I didn't get any further than that as I found what I was looking for,
but the actual dash cover was still rock solid, and I had already pulled
32 of the 35 screws, and they are all different sizes and lengths.
Could be fun in a more "Solid" car like an A6.

I have looked at the website. However I have a real problem with
software that is locked to a particular PC. I upgrade my PC
frequently and this type of licensing is too inconvenient and very
unreliable in my experience.
Cheers, Mark. |
