I have a 2006 audi a6 3.2 quattro. It has 53,215 miles on it. So 3,215 miles after warranty expires so does the ignition coil which has been recalled on almost every model year up 2005 for the last 5-6 years. But it's not on recall for my car yet. To me if they have had a known problem with these coils that they should take care of the problem or be responsible for the repairs. They said because there is no current recall there's nothing they can do, and the fact that they have had a recall for all there cars for the last 6 years means nothing... So I paid to have the coil replaced myself since there would be more damage done to the car if not corrected.
2006 Audi A6 electrical complaints

My 2006 audi a6 lost all engine power while driving and the steering wheel locked up. This happened on three separate occasions. The manufacturer has refused to take the car back, despite the life threatening safety concerns associated with this problem. I have noticed other posted complaints for the same problem.
Dt*: the contact stated that while driving 50 MPH the vehicle burst into flames. Months prior to the fire the vehicle was taken to the dealer 01/27/2005 for recall remedy repairs, #04v133000. During the incident the contact's knee push against the knee bolster located under the dashboard, which made contact with the headlight switch wiring harness, and an electrical short occurred and resulted in a fire.
