When you have it in reverse and the left mirror selected it dips ,if it doesn't dip enough or you would like to see more you can adjust the view with the switch and it will return to that new position when you go in reverse again .
You missed one very useful feature!: the single door unlock. It’s like one of the best features I like about my A4 which I’m sure translates to this A6. It works more than at name value. When tuned on, if you press the unlock button only the drivers door unlocks, but it goes further than that. Cars with convenience entry unlock only the door to which handle you will have touched. Let’s say the car is locked and you place your hand on the rear left door handle, only that door unlocks, and that works for all doors. To me that’s just amazing! In addition to that, when you pull the door handle from the inside after the car is locked (say after a drive) only that door is unlocked but when turned off, the driver and front passenger doors unlock all doors. So it’s also a security feature.
@@davido.9877that was the idea yeah. It was for people getting cars jacked and safety for lonely women getting into their car and preventing people hiding and jumping in the same time she does. Or he. Either way, every Audi I have owned has this option and I've turned it off cause it gets annoying AF 😂😂😂
I have a 2016 biTdi Allroad 146000Km on the clock, I've had the car for 5 years and I LOVE it - you forgot to tell about the tank flap release in the right rear .. because it will get stuck one day. Only nuisance I have is the sodding radio comes on EVERY time I turn the ignition on. I turn the radio off and and it'll come on again - turn off, then good to go - normal operation.. irritating. any ideas?? now I'm just waiting for the A6 etron to be made as an Allroad, if not - I'll be driving my diesel for a very long time.
Could you eleborate a bit more on the stuck tank flap release, actually ran into it a while ago finanlly fixed after significant amoun of time closing and opening the car😂
Hi, had the same with the Radio. Solved it by selecting Media as the source instead. Then don't select CD if you have a CD in. Question: I didn't find the "tank flap release in the right rear", can you specify a bit more?
I just bought one too... LOVE the car, wish I could find a better infotainment screen to add android auto that still retracts and keeps the same MMI system.
That hidden drawer is also available on the driver’s side too - loved it a place for my glasses. Got my first A6 black edition 2.0 Ultra S-line a month now, i am loving every big of it. Sadly it dont have usb connection and I don’t have some mirror functions but definitely am proud of the car; drives magical
Nice and handy tips, thanks. Do you happen to know how the "Adaptive" portion of the Cruise Control can be completely disabled? It is very annoying when other cars steer in front of the car "too" close and the car slows down. Bad for fuel consumption also.
Yes i have to agree with you these are lovely cars the A6 is just a superb car in the Le Mans version 2.7 V6 turbo diesel, Leather heated seats goes for fun and the boot space you could live in the boot
just got 2015 black edition in mint condition....manual transmission....pan roof..20 in alloys....May have possibly preferred automatic but it is what it is
You are missing the rear curtain that attaches to the back of the rear seat and has the hooks next to the exit handles, so when you go, you can't see anything from the front.
You will probably need to activate the green menu. If you have VCDS then go to module 5F and read channel 06 and enter and save "1" as the new value for the channel 6. The two key option on the MMI should then work for you. some cars disable green screen from the factory
Thanks for the video, just purchased a 2015 C7. I really need to change the screen and add a camera. Have you looked at anything regarding this or are you planning on doing this? Cheers!
Put your car in reverse, twist the knob to the passenger side, adjust the mirror to your preferred reversing position and that's it. When you go back in drive, it should revert to your driving setting. As long as you leave the mirror knob on the passenger position, when you put the gearbox into reverse, it should go to the reverse position.
maybe i know to much about my c7 but not a single one of this features is hidden for me...more interesting is how to switch the openig hight of the trunk its nice when you park your c7 in a garage that is not so high
Great video, I have a question on timming belt change.i have same car 2017 model with only 114,000 km, When I researched it on line I'm getting different answers when to change.i have also contacted to main dealer's and both with different answers 😂, online I'm seeing 210,000 km regardless of age,main dealer 210,000 or 6 years. What's your thoughts?
@@suprstu3290 Isn't it enabled by default? If it's not on, I suspect you got to press CAR button on MMI and then look into settings, there you can choose modes of external lights (like "coming home" time-out duration etc), and, if I remember correctly, there was something about windows too.
Just bought a 2018 one kind of disappointed that there isnt a reversing camera i got a quote of 500euro im guessing that screen is capable of producing an image

5 years I’ve had mine and I always thought the alarm was not very sensitive at all, in fact I thought the siren was knackered. Turns out whff we n I think I’m deadlocking it I’m turning alarm off, there’s buttons on door panel for this also
2nd feature 1:26 exist on my Audi A3 from 2005 so it's def not an A6 exclusive feature. Auto self lock (nr 4) exists on all Audi or VW cars so again it's not an A6 feature. Nr 9. I have that glove box vent on my VW GOLF MK5 so another non A6 feature. Nr 11 under seat compartment exists on both our 2005 A3 and VW GOLF MK5 so again not an A6 feature.
Don’t forget if you conk out the engine just press the brake and clutch and engine restarts itself. Also windows will open and close for a few minutes after engine is turned off . Wipers will always go home when engine is turned off. If your closing the windows they will continue closing or opening even if key is removed and engine is off.
It is standard on all VW cars. Are you holding it long enough? Push CAR/ Car Settings(upper right) select driver assist and scroll down to find it. On mine I can have even roof window openning together with door windows. (2011 A7), was working on Skoda Octavia 2005 for me as well, but no menu, working on Golf 2012 (no menu), no reason your should not be working.

And what’s the usecase of only having one door unlocked? Do you think someone sneaks into your back door while you are entering the car in the front?

What year is your car?
Hello.Is it possible for LCD do not go down,when you turn the car down?
Yes. There is a button next to LCD
Nice and handy tips, thanks. Do you happen to know how the "Adaptive" portion of the Cruise Control can be completely disabled? It is very annoying when other cars steer in front of the car "too" close and the car slows down. Bad for fuel consumption also.
Is the alarm enabled again when you unlock and lock the car?
Thanks just got one a week a ago super car thanks for the information
Excellent information, am considering an A6 2014 3.0ltr TDI Allroad, this is really useful.
Same, but concerned about air suspension reliability.
Have you had any problems with. The ACC being affected by high outside Temperatures
Same problem :(
Нет такой проблемы. Если вы снимали бампер, тогда нужно калибровать ACC на специальном стенде.
Turn on sync , all ac or heat will sync, you're using ac upfront but heat in rear seats
My key fob doesn’t roll my windows down/up. How do you enable that feature?
Just go in Car Sedtting in the MMI interface
Well done thankyou, just got n A6 3.0T Quattro
Great choice. Have fun!
I cut the cord on the gas cap to prevent gas station people from dropping the gas cap onto my paint. Works perfectly.
Dose it have keyless entry or just keyless ignition?
keyless entry and touch lock on the front door handles
Yes i have to agree with you these are lovely cars the A6 is just a superb car in the Le Mans version 2.7 V6 turbo diesel, Leather heated seats goes for fun and the boot space you could live in the boot
Top video mate.. 💪🏼
There are hidden hooks for the shopping bags in the boot (sedan version) that are folded on the top of boot :)
Picking up 2013 black edition soon!
just got 2015 black edition in mint condition....manual transmission....pan roof..20 in alloys....May have possibly preferred automatic but it is what it is
How mirror folding work on a6 c7 ultra 2014
You are missing the rear curtain that attaches to the back of the rear seat and has the hooks next to the exit handles, so when you go, you can't see anything from the front.
Good hints, aware of some but not all.
Please how is it fuel consumption capacity ? I’m thinking of getting one.
on the tdi I get 38mpg on the highway.33 combined.
Number 3: there is a button on the drivers door just above the reflector which switches off the cabin sensor.
What is a cabin sensor and are you on about inside of door or edge of door? Thanks
@@BigBoyAlbee The sensor inside the passenger area. The switch is on the drivers door near the lock catch.
What if I have RMC_EU_P12321 software ??

be careful. Don't change anything in the green menu if you don't know exactly what you are doing!

Hi. Will the scan tool help set the Auto Stop/Start to default off?
should do. I have a different OBD tool, that can do this. It is also possible to turn the information light off, if that disturbs you.
Hidden features are the best
i have an audi a6 c7 2015 came with no fuel cap i can now see that might not have ben made like that
No fuel cap lol 😂 that is not good, the quality of your fuel will worsen fast.
4:12 u can just once press hard and it will automaticly go up/down
Great tips, can you go through setting the height of the dip on the passenger mirror
Put your car in reverse, twist the knob to the passenger side, adjust the mirror to your preferred reversing position and that's it.
When you go back in drive, it should revert to your driving setting.

What's your thoughts?
I changed it on my A6 2013 at 200,000 km, as specified by the manufacturer. The factory belt is very reliable and can easily withstand 200,000 km
I agree. I have done up to 210000klm on a timing belt with original parts. Don’t use spurious parts please.

For Tip #11 - I have seatbelt cutters and window breaking tools inboth.
Opening windows from key remote works on A6 C6 too, since it had all electric windows by default.
it is pretty old feature my old a4 b5 from 1995 had it already.
It works on all VAG cars, even Skodas.
I don’t know how to enable that feature. Can you help?
