Why is Your 2010 A6’s Transmission So Important?

The transmission delivers power from the motor to your wheels so that you can drive at your desired speed.

It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. Audi A6 transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, a feeling of shakiness, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. If you don’t pay attention to Audi A6 transmission trouble you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your A6 at all.

2010 Audi A6 Questions & Answers

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Audi? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Audi? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your A6 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my A6 transmission fluid need to be checked? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2010 A6’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Audi. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can Audi A6 transmission fluid leak? Yes, your Audi A6 can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your A6 ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.

  • Should I avoid driving my Audi A6 if there is a transmission fluid leak? Driving with a transmission fluid leak is not recommended.
